Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is very common but is frequently undiagnosed. Symptoms include loud snoring, nocturnal awakening, and daytime sleepiness. Motor vehicle accidents due to drowsy driving are a particular concern. Evaluation and treatment should focus on symptomatic patients, both to alleviate symptoms and to potentially decrease ...

Obstructive Sleep apnea Therapy
Journal of Dental Research, 2008In clinical practice, oral appliances are used primarily for obstructive sleep apnea patients who do not respond to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. We hypothesized that an oral appliance is not inferior to CPAP in treating obstructive sleep apnea effectively.

Pediatric obstructive sleep apnea
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2009For over 100 years obstructive sleep apnea has been recognized as a clinical entity in adults and more recently in children. A comprehensive review of the literature of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea was conducted using a PubMed search for original research articles. Bibliographies of these articles were reviewed for additional relevant articles not

Obstructive sleep apnea syndromes
Medical Clinics of North America, 2004Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndromes afflict various age groups. OSA is reported to be more prevalent in middle-aged men compared with women in the United States, but the true prevalence may be higher, because OSA syndromes are underdiagnosed. This article reviews the history of sleep apnea, discusses the clinical presentation of OSA-hypopnea and ...

Pediatrics, 1983
Kahn and colleagues1 point out that their findings of a decrease in transcutaneous PO2 after episodes of obstructive apnea could be due to a "... redistribution of blood flow away from the skin... ." Their suggestion, however, that the latter is due to a decrease in cardiac output is unlikely.

Managing Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The Journal of the American Dental Association, 1993Obstructive sleep apnea, cessation of breathing during sleep, is potentially life threatening and requires prompt intervention. A prosthesis can reposition the mandible during sleep and minimize or prevent the tongue from collapsing against the pharynx. Two case reports discuss the effectiveness of prosthetic devices.

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome
European Journal of Internal Medicine, 2012Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome is a common but often unrecognized disorder caused by pharyngeal collapse during sleep and characterized by frequent awakenings, disrupted sleep and consequent excessive daytime sleepiness. With the increasing epidemic of obesity, the most important risk factor for OSA, prevalence of the disease will increase over
