Restless Legs Syndrome What is sleep apnea? Sleep apnea (sleep-disordered breathing) is a serious and common sleep disorder affecting about 12 million Americans, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Its name comes from a Greek word, apnea , meaning "without breath." People with sleep apnea stop breathing briefly many times during the night. The breathing pauses last at least 10 seconds, and there may be 20 to 30 or more pauses per hour. The main symptoms of sleep apnea are persistent loud snoring at night and daytime sleepiness. Another symptom is frequent long pauses in breathing during sleep, followed by choking and gasping for breath. People with sleep apnea don't get enough restful sleep, and their daytime performance is often seriously affected. Sleep apnea may also lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attack, and stroke. However, it can be diagnosed and treated. Who gets sleep apnea?

Uno sport meraviglioso che regala intense emozioni a chi lo pratica. Emozioni difficili da descrivere a chi non vive il rapporto con il mare come lo viviamo noi pescatori in apnea. Con queste pagine web amatoriali vorrei contribuire (nel mio piccolo) a far conoscere e comprendere sempre più questa bellissima disciplina sportiva, magari collaborando con tanti altri siti analoghi realizzati da persone che hanno la mia stessa passione. Essere in molti e far sentire la nostra voce, anche usando il WEB, è un modo importante per farci uscire da quel ghetto in cui ormai gli pseudo-animalisti ci hanno relegato, additandoci come crudeli e spietati distruttori dei mari!!!! Purtroppo, per questi falsi difensori del mare, è molto più facile attaccare una minoranza quale noi siamo piuttosto che combattere contro i ricchi interessi economici della pesca professionale che, come dimostrano numerosi dati statistici, è la prima fonte di depauperamento dell'ecosistema marino. Per non parlare poi dei danni arrecati all'ambiente marino, "sopra ogni legge" e senza veri controlli, dall'industria e da tantissime altre attività economiche.

What are symptoms of sleep apnea? How is sleep apnea diagnosed? How is sleep apnea treated? What is sleep apnea? Sleep apnea refers to interruption of breathing during sleep. Apnea is a Greek word that means "want of breath." The most common form of sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea. In obstructive sleep apnea, the muscles of the soft palate around the base of the tongue and the uvula relax, obstructing the airway. The airway obstruction causes the level of oxygen in the blood to fall (hypoxia), increases the stress on the heart, elevates blood pressure, and prevents the patient from entering "REM sleep," the restful and restorative stage of sleep. In other words, sleep apnea causes deprivation of quality sleep. What are symptoms of sleep apnea? The symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea include loud snoring and/or abnormal pattern of snoring with pauses and gasps. Other symptoms include excessive daytime sleepiness, memory changes, depression, and irritability. In some patients sleep apnea can contribute to high blood pressure, heart failure, stroke, and heart attack. Obstructive sleep apnea typically affects middle-age, overweight men, and may affect women in later years. Obstructive apnea can be aggravated by alcohol, sleeping pills and tranquilizers taken at bedtime.

Sleep Health News During sleep, we usually pass through five phases of sleep: stages 1, 2, 3, 4, and REM (rapid eye movement) sleep. These stages progress in a cycle from stage 1 to REM sleep, then the cycle starts over again with stage 1. We spend almost 50 percent of our total sleep time in stage 2 sleep, about 20 percent in REM sleep, and the remaining 30 percent in the other stages. Infants, by contrast, spend about half of their sleep time in REM sleep. For more, read the Sleep article. Sleep Index Trouble Sleeping? Insomnia May Be Why Sleep: At The Wheel With Sleep Apnea!
