(See End of this page for more information on UCI's Center for Snoring and Sleep Disorders) (It is important to understand the difference between Snoring and Sleep Apnea, because an individual may be afflicted with one, or the other, or both.) Tired during the day? Tired of a poor night's sleep? Want to go from this to this? Individuals who snore may also suffer from obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). There are a variety of treatments for each disorder, and our Department has had extensive experience in treating patients who suffer from both kinds of sleep disorders. Many people snore. It has been estimated that anywhere from 30 - 50% of the United States population snore at some time or another. Significant snoring is sometimes described as "heroic" snoring, in which the snoring loudness may be heard more than two bedrooms away. Such snoring may cause several problems: Marital Discord Sleep disturbances (from spousal prodding) Waking episodes (from one's own snoring) Frequent association with OSAS Snoring is not sleep apnea, and sleep apnea is not snoring. Snoring is a social problem, as indicated above, and may be associated with significant sleep disturbance, waking episodes, etc. without OSAS. However, many patients with loud snoring do have significant obstructive sleep apnea.

Doctors Should Screen Kids for Snoring and Sleep Apnea Mon Apr 1,11:48 AM ET By Melissa Schorr NEW YORK ( Reuters Health ) - For the first time, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is recommending that doctors screen all children for snoring to determine if they might be at risk of obstructive sleep apnea, a temporary collapse of the upper airway that occurs during sleep. Symptoms of the condition include snoring, often with pauses, snorts or gasps as breathing temporarily stops and restarts. "Our hope is this will raise awareness of this condition among pediatricians so more children will be diagnosed," AAP committee chair Dr. Carole L. Marcus, director of the pediatric sleep center at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, told Reuters Health.

References For over two decades clinical studies have been conducted which suggest the existence of a relationship between depression and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Recently, Ohayon underscored the evidence for a link between these two disorders in the general population, showing that 800 out of 100,000 individuals had both, a breathing-related sleep disorder and a major depressive disorder, with up to 20% of the subjects presenting with one of these disorders also having the other. In some populations, depending on age, gender and other demographic and health characteristics, the prevalence of both disorders may be even higher: OSA may affect more than 50% of individuals over the age of 65, and significant depressive symptoms may be present in as many as 26% of a community-dwelling population of older adults.

University of California, San Francisco About UCSF Search Welcome Hospitals and Clinics Appointments Billing ... Events and Classes Apnea Print Format Apnea is a condition in which a baby stops breathing periodically for more than 15 to 20 seconds. Premature infants, particularly those born more than seven weeks early, or before 32 weeks of pregnancy), may suffer from apnea from time to time. While in the womb, the babies receive oxygen from the mother's placenta. However, once born, a baby needs to breathe on its own. Some premature babies are unable to breathe normally when first born because their brains are not yet programmed to sustain nonstop breathing. This is called central apnea. Premature babies also can suffer from obstructive apnea, which occurs when their small airways become blocked. This may be caused by mucus, or the baby may be in a position that kinks the airway. Apnea also is associated with another condition, called bradycardia. This is a slowing of the heart rate, usually to less than 80 beats per minute for a premature baby. Bradycardia often follows apnea or periods of very shallow breathing. Experts at UCSF Children's Hospital care for infants with apnea in the William H. Tooley Intensive Care Nursery

What Is Sleep Apnea? People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times during the night and often for a minute or longer. The most common symptoms of sleep apnea are loud snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness. The frequent interruptions of deep, restorative sleep often leads to excessive daytime sleepiness and may be associated with an early morning headache. Sleep apnea is very common and affects more than twelve million Americans, according to the National Institutes of Health. Risk factors include being male, overweight, and over the age of forty, but sleep apnea can strike anyone at any age, even children.

The disease has been linked to cardiovascular problems, and some studies have shown that people with sleep apnea are at higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Researchers in Ireland wondered whether the most common and effective treatment for sleep apnea, called continuous positive airway pressure therapy, which delivers air through a mask or pillow during sleep, affected the development of cardiovascular problems.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Subscribe to My Apnea Support Group Listserv! CPAP is an acronym for Continuous Positive Air Pressure, and is the word used for the machines that apneacs use when they sleep to get REM sleep. Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a very under-diagnosed sleeping disorder which I was diagnosed with in December 1995. Apnea is not realistically a life or death issue but it is very much about quality of life. Since my diagnosis I have been getting treatment. To find out more about the condition, which is most noticeable in those who snore, see the following: Apnea: The Sleep Well Sleep Apnea IF YOU CAN ANSWER YES TO MORE THAN ONE OF THESE you should tell your doctor to check you out for sleep apnea: 2. My neck size is 17 or over 3. I fall asleep in inappropriate places 4. I feel way below par much of the time 5. Someone who can hear me sleep has noticed that I snore very loudly, then stop breathing and then start breathing again with a gasp.
