Sleep Disorders You Must Know About

 

5. Central Sleep Apnea

When the brain briefly stops delivering instructions to the breathing muscles, central sleep apnea develops. Normal breathing pauses might happen periodically during the night or throughout a cycle. People with specific medical conditions are more prone to developing the disorder. A higher risk of cardiovascular mortality and unexpected, all-cause death is linked to sleep apnea.

6. Sleep-Related Hypoventilation

Hypoventilation is a condition of diminished or insufficient ventilation. Hypoventilation can be brought on by a variety of reasons. However, abnormalities of the respiratory muscles, neurological diseases, and central nervous system depression are the main causes of hypoventilation. Breathlessness and exhaustion are two of these early symptoms.
