SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OSA

• Snoring, interrupted by pauses in breathing
• Excessive daytime sleepiness
• Depression
• Morning headaches
• Hypertension
• Gasping or choking during sleep
• Restless sleep
• Intellectual deterioration
• Poor judgement or concentration
• Irritability & Sexual dysfunction

HOW IS OSA DIAGNOSED?

An overnight diagnostic sleep study, known as a polysomnogram or PSG, is used to determine the type and severity of the sleep disorder, as well as determining the appropriate treatment.

BENEFITS OF CONTINUOUS USE

• Elimination of snoring and abnormal breathing events.
• Absence of daytime drowsiness or fatigue.
• Improved quality of life.
• Reduction or elimination of comorbidities such as hypertension.
• Decreased consumption of health care resources.

IF OSA IS LEFT UNTREATED

• Hypertension
• Motor-vehicle and work related accidents
• Cardiac arrhythmias due to drowsiness
• Myocardial Ischemia
• Decreased quality of life
• Myocardial infarction

HOW DO YOU TREAT OSA

CPAP treats obstructive sleep apnea by providing a gentle flow of positive airway pressure via a mask. The positive airway pressure splints the airway open during sleep to prevent airway collapse. This results in the elimination of snoring and abnormal breathing and prevents daytime drowsiness or fatigue.
