A Review on Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Men

Nida Tabassum Khan*

Sleep apnoea occurs by the blockage of airway/airline when throat muscles relax and soft tissue near the throat collapses during sleep, so due to collapsing of soft tissue the chest muscles and diaphragm work tougher as the pressure generated to open the blocked air route, breathing/inhalation typically continues with a loud-gasp and body-jerk. It supply the poor flow of oxygen in to vital organs in the body, and produce heart rhythm irregularities. Sleep apnoea is the most common sleep issue, common in general population which affect 40-45% of all men on a regular basis. Sleep apnoea may be strongly connected with obesity and hypertension in men, affecting an individual quality of life.
