  2. Obstructive sleep apnea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obstructive_sleep_apnea

    For those with obstructive sleep apnea unable or unwilling to comply with first line treatment, the surgical intervention has to be adapted to an individual's specific anatomy and physiology, personal preference and disease severity. [114] Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty with or without is the most common surgery for patients with obstructive sleep ...

  3. Sleep apnea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_apnea

    The condition, also called treatment-emergent central apnea, is generally detected when obstructive sleep apnea is treated with CPAP and central sleep apnea emerges. [18] The exact mechanism of the loss of central respiratory drive during sleep in OSA is unknown but is most likely related to incorrect settings of the CPAP treatment and other ...

  4. Respiratory arrest - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiratory_arrest

    Respiratory arrest is a serious medical condition caused by apnea or respiratory dysfunction severe enough that it will not sustain the body (such as agonal breathing). Prolonged apnea refers to a patient who has stopped breathing for a long period of time. If the heart muscle contraction is intact, the condition is known as respiratory arrest.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_disorder

    Sleep apnea, obstructive sleep apnea, obstruction of the airway during sleep, causing lack of sufficient deep sleep, often accompanied by snoring. Other forms of sleep apnea are less common. [89] Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a medical disorder that is caused by repetitive collapse of the upper airway (back of the throat) during sleep.

  7. Central hypoventilation syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_hypoventilation...

    Central hypoventilation syndrome (CHS) is a sleep-related breathing disorder that causes ineffective breathing, apnea, or respiratory arrest during sleep (and during wakefulness in severe cases). CHS can either be congenital (CCHS) or acquired (ACHS) later in life.

  8. K-complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-complex

    Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is associated with inspiratory occlusions evoking fewer K-complexes during NREM sleep even though K-complexes are evoked normally to auditory stimuli and such individuals react normally to respiratory interruptions when awake. This suggests a link between such sleep apnea and a sleep specific blunted cortical ...

  9. Hypopnea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypopnea

    In sleep clinics, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome or obstructive sleep apnea–hypopnea syndrome (as well as central sleep apnea) is normally diagnosed based on the frequent presence of apneas and/or hypopneas rather than differentiating between the two phenomena.
