Sleep Apnea & Cardiac Arrhythmias
INTRODUCTION Sleep apnea syndrome (SA) is a common breathing disorder that affects 5% of the North American adult population, with men being affected almost twice as much as women [1]. The condition has well defined associations with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, arrhythmia, daytime hypersomnolence, motor vehicle accidents and neurocognitive dysfunction; but despite this it ...
متن کاملCardiac arrhythmias, snoring, and sleep apnea.
We investigated the frequency of cardiac arrhythmias in patients suspected of having sleep apnea, and related them to the severity of apnea, snoring, and nocturnal hypoxemia. We prospectively studied 458 patients who had nocturnal polysomnography which included objective measurement of snoring (quantified by the number of snores per hour of sleep [snoring index (SI)] and maximum nocturnal sound...
متن کاملObstructive sleep apnea and its relationship to cardiac arrhythmias.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects approximately 4% of middle-aged men and 2% of middle-aged women. Cardiac arrhythmias are common problems in patients with OSA, even though the true prevalence and clinical relevance of cardiac arrhythmias remains to be determined. The presence and complexity of both tachyarrhythmias and bradyarrhythmias may influence morbidity, mortality, and the quality of...
متن کاملCardiac Arrhythmias during Sleep
Humans spend approximately one third of their lives asleep. Although generally considered to be a peaceful, stable period for the body and mind to rest and heal, sleep in fact represents a complex, dynamic process involving dramatic changes in physiological state. Sleep-related cardiac arrhythmias are very common and often diagnosed incidentally on Holter monitor; the vast majority are benign b...
