However, it requires a technician and must be performed in a laboratory or a sleep specialized clinic using heavy equipment.

This is the most common type of sleep apnea. • Other factors that can contribute to obstructive sleep apnea include the presence of: • enlarged tonsils obstructing the airway, • excess fatty tissue in the throat in obese individuals, • an overly long soft palate, • a lower jaw that is too short or set back (mandibular retrognathia). • Obstructive apnea requires respiratory effort to overcome an obstruction in the upper airway (nose, mouth, pharynx, and larynx). • Obstruction can vary in severity and may be due to age (aging), malocclusion, hormonal imbalance, diabetes, enlarged adenoid tissues (tonsils, adenoids), or excess weight." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Symptoms", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The main symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea are: • unexplained daytime fatigue and drowsiness; • frequent and uncontrolled falling asleep; • snoring and breathing interruptions during sleep.

The measurement of blood oxygen saturation indicates the percentage of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in the blood.

Some partial tests can be done using a portable device that the patient can use at home for home monitoring.

It corresponds to a decrease in blood oxygen saturation of at least 3-4% on a polysomnography, but there is no consensus on the duration of this event.

However, they work differently. CPAP, which stands for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure, delivers pressurized air through a mask to overcome the mechanical blockage caused by the closure of the upper airways when apnea occurs. A CPAP consists of a mask connected by a tube to a small machine that delivers pressurized air. It is an effective way to manage sleep apnea. However, not everyone adapts to it due to the bulkiness or noise of the machine, the mask shifting during the night and potentially leaking, or the unattractive appearance of the device, for example. The MAD, for mandibular advancement device, operates differently.
