Snoring surgery, sleep apnoea treatment<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Snoring affects about 10-30% of the adult population, 5% of these people have apnoea (OSAS \u2013 obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome).<\/p>\n

Snoring is not a disease in itself, but rather a sound phenomenon that disturbs relatives, and does not pose a health risk to the snorer’s body. If snoring is accompanied by a deterioration in the snorer’s sleep quality, the co-existence of OSAS arises, then an examination is necessary.<\/p>\n

In the case of nocturnal breathing interruptions, daytime fatigue, forgetfulness, frequent headaches, high blood pressure, and pulse problems, an examination, instrumental sleep examination, and sleep endoscopy (DISE) are necessary.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Consequences of OSAS<\/h2>\n\t

Sleep apnoea has serious long-term consequences. In case of sleep apnoe, the blood oxygen level decreases, carbon dioxide level rises, which awokes the body, hence\u00a0raising the blood pressure and heart rate. These awakenings are often not conscious, rather the relative complains about the choking. Of course, it also happens that the patient wakes up completely from the choking, in which case they often gasp, may feel a sense of fear of death, sweats, and is restless.<\/p>\n

This cumulative nocturnal oxygen deficiency \u201cstress reaction\u201d leads to higher blood pressure, pulse number in the long run, which is a risk factor for heart attack and brain damages (stroke, thrombosis).<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Statistics show that people with apnoea are forty times more likely to have a heart attack than healthy people. Disturbed sleep at night results in other daytime effects:<\/p>\n
