What is apnea?\nObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) <\/strong><\/a>is a condition characterized by the obstruction of the upper airways during sleep. Usually, this obstruction is accompanied by a decrease in blood oxygen saturation, followed by a brief awakening during the night to breathe. The main episodes of this disorder during sleep are loud and frequent snoring<\/strong><\/a>, breathing pauses and sleep fragmentation. Consequently, these symptoms trigger several hardships throughout the day including excessive daytime drowsiness<\/strong><\/a>, cognitive alterations, and morning headaches. If you present any of these symptoms, your physician will provide a diagnosis by prescribing the appropriate sleep monitoring exams. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t
