Symptoms

Symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Snoring caused by sleep apnea is due to the partial or complete obstruction of the airway during sleep. When the airway becomes blocked, the effort to breathe continues, which causes the tissues in the throat to vibrate – leading to the sound we recognize as snoring. This disruption not only impacts sleep quality, but can also lead to more serious health concerns if left untreated.
Apnea is a medical condition where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. This disruption often results in poor sleep quality and excessive daytime fatigue. It’s commonly caused by the relaxation of throat muscles in a condition known as obstructive sleep apnea, but can also result from a lack of signal from the brain to breathe, known as central sleep apnea.
Hypoxia, as a symptom of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), refers to the condition where the body or a region of the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply. In the context of OSA, this occurs during apnea episodes when breathing is interrupted, leading to lower oxygen levels in the blood. This can cause various complications, including daytime fatigue, cognitive impairment, and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Daytime fatigue is a common symptom of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). OSA involves repeated interruptions in breathing during sleep, causing frequent awakenings and disrupting the normal sleep cycle. As a result, individuals with OSA often experience significant daytime fatigue, which is characterized by persistent sleepiness and a lack of energy during the day, impairing daily function and quality of life.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) Treatments

Invasive Treatments

Invasive treatments, such as surgical procedures, offer effective solutions for sleep-related disorders when non-invasive methods aren't successful. A prime example is the CAUP Coblation Snoring Surgery, which improves airflow by meticulously reshaping or removing obstructive tissues.

Non-Invasive Treatments

At Aria Sleep Clinic, we offer effective and non-invasive treatments for sleep-disordered breathing, with CPAP therapy being the gold standard for treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is a quiet, portable, and easy-to-use device that delivers gentle and continuous airway pressure throughout the night, preventing obstructions and ensuring better sleep quality.

Daytime Treatment

In our Daytime Treatment program, we offer comprehensive strategies to tackle sleep-related challenges that affect your daytime performance. Through a personalized approach, our experts will guide you in optimizing your sleep schedule, improving sleep hygiene, and implementing relaxation techniques to enhance your daytime alertness and overall well-being.
