Sleep apnea syndrome

Introduction to sleep apnea syndrome Sleepapneasyndrome (SAS) refers to sleeplessness within 7 hours of nighttime sleep, nasal or nasal airflow continues to stop for more than 10s, and more than 30 times, common causes are nasal septum deviation, nasal polyps, nasopharyngeal adenoid hypertrophy, Giant tongue disease, tonsil hypertrophy, mandibular deformity, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, pulmonary heart disease, obesity, dyspnea, sleepiness syndrome, acromegaly, mucinous edema, high altitude polycythemia, drug-induced respiratory depression, medullary polio. Apnea can be divided into central type (chest and abdomen muscles without breathing action), obstructive type (thoracic and abdominal muscles as much as possible for breathing action) and mixed type (thoracic and abdominal muscles begin to have no breathing action, appearing later and gradually strengthening), during which time No spontaneous breathing. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.015% Susceptible people: no special people Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: pulmonary failure

Causes of sleep apnea syndrome

(1) Causes of the disease

There are obstructive lesions of the upper respiratory tract and diseases that affect the respiratory center.

(two) pathogenesis

The pathogenesis is more complicated, and it is currently believed that the pathogenesis is related to anatomy and neurological factors.

Sleep apnea syndrome prevention

Active treatment of the primary disease.

Complications of sleep apnea syndrome Complications, pulmonary failure

A persistent person can develop symptoms of cardiopulmonary failure.

Sleep apnea syndrome symptoms Common symptoms Secondary insomnia lack deep sleep insomnia snoring sleepiness sleep apnea

Excessive daytime sleepiness, nighttime insomnia, snoring, morning headache, libido and mental retardation, persistent symptoms of cardiopulmonary failure, and even sudden death, signs may be overweight, hypertension, arrhythmia, pulmonary hypertension, abnormal speech, intracranial Signs of increased pressure, as well as positive findings in the ear, nose and throat.

Examination of sleep apnea syndrome

Pulmonary function tests during awake, arterial blood gas analysis, and ventilatory responses to CO2 stimulation were generally normal.

Electroencephalogram, eye potential map, and diaphragm electromyography can determine sleep apnea and its classification.

Diagnosis and diagnosis of sleep apnea syndrome

According to the medical history, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, auxiliary examinations, etc., the diagnosis can be confirmed.

Clinical should be differentiated from tonsil and hypertrophic hypertrophy, upper airway obstruction.
