Snoring and Its Impact
Prevalence:
- 45% of normal adults snore at least occasionally.
- 25% are habitual snorers.
- Problem snoring is more frequent in males and overweight individuals.
- Snoring usually worsens with age.
Causes:
- Snoring occurs due to obstructions in the airway at the back of the mouth and nose.
- This area is the collapsible part of the airway where the tongue and upper throat meet the soft palate and uvula.
- Snoring happens when these structures strike each other and vibrate during breathing.
Social and Medical Impact:
- Social Impact: Snoring can make the snorer an object of ridicule and cause sleepless nights and fatigue for bed partners.
- Medical Impact:
- Disturbs sleeping patterns and deprives the snorer of adequate rest.
- May indicate obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), which can lead to serious long-term health problems.
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA)
Description:
- OSA is characterised by multiple episodes of breathing pauses greater than 10 seconds due to upper airway narrowing or collapse.
- This results in lower oxygen levels in the blood, causing the heart to work harder.
- Disrupts the natural sleep cycle, making people feel poorly rested despite adequate time in bed.
- Sleep apnoea patients may experience 30 to 300 such events per night.
Effects:
- Snorers must sleep lightly and keep throat muscles tense to maintain airflow.
- Lack of good rest leads to daytime sleepiness, impaired memory, and performance.
- Increased risk of developing heart attacks, strokes, hypertension, diabetes, and other medical problems.
- Very dangerous if the patient is driving or operating dangerous machinery.
