Notes
Sleep
apnea
syndrome
is
a
disease
that has
become
increasing
more
prevalent
in the
United
States
in the
past
fifty
years
.
Because
of the
newness
of this
disease
it
can
often
be
misdiagnosed
or
even
completely
missed
in
individuals
.
Sleep
apnea
syndrome
poses
many
complications
to
individuals
that have
it
, but as this
review
will
show
with the
proper
treatment
and/or
weight
loss
most
of the
complications
will
diminish
or be
completely
resolved
.
Because
of this
it
is
important
to
know
the
signs
,
symptoms
and what
predisposes
patients
to
sleep
apnea
so
it
can
be
properly
diagnosed
and
patients
can
receive
treatment
.
Individuals
with
sleep
apnea
are at
risk
for
several
complications
.
Glucose
metabolism
disorders
and
cardiac
complications
are the
main
complications
that
patients
face
.
Along
with these
complications
patients
may
also
experience
increased
sleepiness
and
depression
which
can
affect
patients
in how they are
able
to
function
in their
daily
lives
. This
thesis
is
a
literature
review
which
attempts
to
bring
together
many
aspects
of
sleep
apnea
into a
comprehensive
review
. This
thesis
will
discuss
the
types
of
sleep
apnea
and
general
background
, what
can
predispose
an
individual
to and the
risks
of
sleep
apnea
, the
complications
that
sleep
apnea
can
cause
, and what
options
are
available
to
treat
and
control
sleep
apnea
, in
hopes
of
making
people
more
aware
of the
disease
and the
treatment
options
that are
available
.
