Discover New Sleep Apnea Treatment Options Beyond CPAP, Available at eso Sleep

New York, United States - August 21, 2023 / eos sleep /

Do you struggle with sleep apnea and want to improve your symptoms, or are you looking for an alternative to a CPAP machine? Positive airway pressure therapy is the standard treatment for adults with obstructive sleep apnea. Patients who cannot tolerate or benefit from positive airway pressure therapy are candidates for surgery.

While CPAP remains a leading and effective treatment when used correctly, there are a variety of alternative CPAP treatment options available, depending on your personal needs and the underlying cause of your sleep apnea. Setting up a comprehensive evaluation with an eos sleep doctor in New York, NY, who will determine the root cause of your sleep apnea, is the first step in determining what type of sleep apnea treatment is right for you. Before we get into treatment options for sleep apnea, let's talk about what sleep apnea is.

What Is Sleep Apnea?

Obstructive sleep apnea is a common condition in which the airways collapse or become blocked while you sleep. It can cause you to stop breathing for 20 to 30 seconds at a time throughout the night.

Untreated apnea can increase the risk of various diseases, including hypertension, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and some headache syndromes. Many people with sleep apnea are unaware that they have it. Could you have sleep apnea? Let's look at the warning signs.

Difficulty Sleeping or Being Restless

Those with apnea frequently toss and turn and show other signs of restless nighttime sleep. Apnea could cause you to wake up under a twisted pile of disheveled sheets. Sleep becomes disrupted when you struggle to breathe at night.

Have You Been Told You Snore?

Snoring, snorting, or gasping while sleeping is a sign that your upper airway is obstructed. Not all snorers have apnea, but the two frequently coexist. The likelihood of having sleep apnea increases as snoring becomes louder.

If you have apnea, your bed partner may notice that breathing pauses punctuate your snores. These are apnea episodes, and they can occur hundreds of times throughout the night.

Are You Always Tired?

If you get a full night's sleep but still feel tired all day, apnea may affect your sleep quality. You may nod off while reading or watching television. You may become more irritable, less productive, and make more errors at work. Because lack of sleep can impair the immune system, you may catch more colds. There are numerous spillover effects from poor sleep quality into daytime activities.

Option to Conder if You Have Sleep Apnea

Once the underlying cause of your sleep apnea has been identified, various treatment options can be considered, ranging from in-office procedures to oral appliances or surgery.
