Conditions Treated
- Sleep apnea, a sleeping disorder that causes frequent pauses in breathing during sleep and is often accompanied by snoring. People with sleep apnea stop breathing or breathe ineffectively at least five times per hour and snore loudly. Each apnea ends with a snort or gasp, often with body movement.
- Severe snoring, which can increase the work of breathing so much that fragmented or unrestorative sleep may develop. People with emphysema, asthma, chronic bronchitis or congestive heart failure may experience worsening symptoms at night when oxygen levels drop.
