Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs in patients with narrowing of the pharyngeal airway due to a variety of pathologic conditions. We documented obstructive and mixed sleep apnea in a patient with narrowing of the airway caused by macroglossia associated with amyloidosis.

Central apnea is caused by temporary failure in the pontomedullary pacemaker generating breathing rhythm, which results in the loss of ventilatory effort, and if it lasts 10 seconds or more it is defined as central apnea. This article reviews current knowledge on central sleep apnea.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep-disordered breathing. This article describes advances in the diagnosis, testing, treatment, and monitoring of OSA.Home sleep apnea testing and in-laboratory polysomnography are the most commonly used diagnostic tools in the identification and monitoring of OSA, but new methods for diagnosis

Sleep apnea in children develops when airway obstruction at night is severe; however, lesser degrees of obstruction may also cause problems. The most common cause of nighttime obstruction with or without apnea is hyperplasia of the tonsils and adenoids.

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2014
Clinical evidence has established that sleep apnea is a risk factor for stroke. Patients with stroke have a high prevalence of sleep apnea that may have preceded or developed as a result of the stroke. Well-established concurrent stroke risk factors for stroke like hypertension and atrial fibrillation respond favorably to the successful treatment of ...
