INTRODUCTION

• Sleep apnea usually is a chronic (ongoing)
  condition that disrupts your sleep. When your
  breathing pauses or becomes shallow, youll often
  move out of deep sleep and into light sleep.
• Most people who have sleep apnea don't know they
  have it because it only occurs during sleep. A
  family member or bed partner might be the first
  to notice signs of sleep apnea.

• What is Obstructive Sleep Apnea?

• Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common
  form of sleep apnea and is believed to affect
  approximately 4 of men and 2 of women. However,
  it is believed that only about 10 of people with
  OSA seek treatment leaving the majority of OSA
  sufferers undiagnosed

What is Central Sleep Apnea?

• Central sleep apnea (CSA) occurs when the brain
  temporarily fails to signal the muscles
  responsible for controlling breathing. Unlike
  obstructive sleep apnea, which can be thought of
  as a mechanical problem, central sleep apnea is
  more of a communication problem.

What is Mixed Sleep Apnea?  

• Mixed sleep apnea is a combination of both
  obstructive and central sleep apnea symptoms.
  Some patients  being treated for obstructive
  sleep apnea with the use of CPAP machines develop
  symptoms of central sleep apnea upon PAP therapy.
  This phenomenon had long been noticed in sleep
  labs, but had not been previously researched. In
  2006 researchers from the Mayo Clinic conducted a
  study of 223 sleep apnea patients and found that
  15 of sleep apnea patients who were believed to
  have OSA in fact had mixed sleep apnea.
