Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a potentially serious disorder attacking millions of people around the world. Many of these individuals are undiagnosed, and even though diagnosed often exhibit a poor compliance with the use of continuous positive airway pressure at nights, a very effective nonsurgical treatment.

A central sleep apnea is the absence of respiratory effect, and, thus, the absence of airflow during sleep. Central hypopnea, a related disorder, is also discussed. The sensory component of central sleep apnea; defects involving the integrative and executive neurons; non-neurologic causes of central sleep apneas, including chronic obstructive pulmonary

Progress continues in the refinement of historical and physical examination findings predictive of sleep-disordered breathing. Home monitoring is becoming more widely accepted and validated. The most significant development in the diagnosis of sleep-disordered breathing this year was the American Academy of Sleep Medicine's report on "Recommendations ...

Sleep apnea is characterized by recurrent upper airway obstruction, resulting in periodic apneic episodes that are associated with oxygen desaturation and frequent awakenings. This leads to daytime somnolence and, possibly, pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale.
