Apnea and hypopnea can occur hundreds of times over the course of a single night, in which case it is called a Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS)<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_accordion active_tab=”false” collapsible=”yes” style=”accordion”][vc_accordion_tab title=”Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is the most common form of sleep apnea, and accounts for up to 85% of apnea diagnosis. This sleep disorder is caused by a blockage of the upper airways in the nose or throat, causing the air to stop flowing to the lungs.The airways might become blocked for a variety of reasons :<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Central Sleep Apnea Syndrom”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Central sleep apnea (CSA) is rare and can be caused by certain medical treatments. In this case, the air stops circulating in the body because the brain no longer requires breathing effort from the muscles responsible for breathing. People suffering from this sleep disorder will not have any visible symptoms, therefore this pathology may remain undetected.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Mixed Sleep Apnea”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n In some cases, sleep apnea may be composed of OSAS and CSA This association of two sleep disorders is defined as sleep apnea.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][\/vc_accordion][vc_empty_space height=”30px” el_class=”.hide_mobile”][vc_empty_space height=”90px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” anchor=”signes” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px” el_class=”.hide_mobile”][vc_empty_space height=”90px”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”small” position=”left”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Most of the time, the person who suffers from sleep apnea is not aware of the breathing breaks.

Before 60, it’s mainly men who suffer from the illness. Beyond that, women suffer as much.<\/p>\n Obesity, smoking, alcohol and sedative drugs are factors that promote the onset and development of the disease. Once triggered, sleep apnea syndrome then increases the risk of developing high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease (heart failure, heart rhythm disorders, coronary artery disease, stroke). The interrelation between sleep apnea, obesity, increased risk of diabetes and presence of fats in the blood is increasingly evoked.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”90px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px” el_class=”.hide_mobile”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”grid” anchor=”CPAP” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”90px”][vc_empty_space height=”30px” el_class=”.hide_mobile”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”small” position=”left”][vc_column_text el_class=”.hide_mobile”]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you think you are suffering from sleep apnea or if you have already been diagnosed with sleep apnea, the implementation of a treatment will reduce the negative effects of the pathology that can range from daytime sleepiness, to more serious consequences such as an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The patients who were treated.<\/p>\n The common treatment against sleep apnea is by CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) which conducts a flow of air into a mask that the patient will wear during the night.
