Epilepsy and sleep apnea syndrome

Neurology, 1994
We identified seven patients with refractory partial epilepsy and sleep apnea. Treatment of the sleep apnea with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), protriptyline, trazodone, acetazolamide, or tracheostomy reduced seizure frequency and severity in six patients. Success with CPAP depended largely on compliance.

Progressive improvement of apnea index and ventilatory response to CO2 after tracheostomy in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1982
In order to determine whether reversible alterations in ventilatory control are found in obstructive sleep apnea syndromes, 5 male patients 31 to 57 yr of age presenting with the syndrome were polygraphically monitored before and several times during the

All‐Nanofiber Self‐Powered Skin‐Interfaced Real‐Time Respiratory Monitoring System for Obstructive Sleep Apnea‐Hypopnea Syndrome Diagnosing

Advanced Functional Materials, 2021
Human respiration is an indispensable physiological behavior of the body, which is an important indicator to evaluate health status, especially for sleep‐related diseases.

Sleep Apnea and Down's Syndrome

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 2003
Obstructive sleep apnea has been reported to occur in 20-50% of children with Down's syndrome in case series of patients referred for evaluation of suspected sleep apnea. In this population-based controlled study, we aimed to investigate whether sleep apnea is related to Down's syndrome.Every child aged 2-10 years with Down's syndrome residing in the ...

Flow-volume curve abnormalities and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Chest, 1985
Recent reports have suggested that flow volume curve abnormalities may be of interest in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea syndromes by showing either extrathoracic airway obstruction (ratio of expiratory flow to inspiratory flow at 50 percent of ...

Reversibility of deficient sleep entrained growth hormone secretion in a boy with achondroplasia and obstructive sleep apnea.

Acta Endocrinologica, 1987
Obstructive sleep apnea may lead to disordered sleep architecture and impair the physiologic slow wave sleep related growth hormone release. Obstructive sleep apnea occurs with craniofacial syndromes and in children with airway narrowing, pharyngeal ...

Pathophysiology and treatment of sleep apnea.

Annual Review of Medicine, 1985
The sleep apnea syndromes have attracted the interest of physicians and scientists in many different disciplines because the disorders involve the physiology of sleep, the control of respiration, the function of the upper airway, and the clinical ...

Obstructive sleep apnea syndromes

Medical Clinics of North America, 2004
Obstructive 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 ...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1990
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is the most common cause of hypersomnolence in patients referred to sleep disorders centers. This type of sleep apnea is characterized by loud snoring, nocturnal oxyhemoglobin desaturation, and disrupted sleep that leads to daytime hypersomnolence.
