Preferred Label : Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome;
NCIt definition : A disorder characterized by recurrent episodic disruptions of breathing during sleep.
It is caused by the intermittent relaxation of pharyngeal muscles leading to the narrowing
or complete blockage of the upper airway. This results in compensatory arousal from
sleep to breathe again. An anatomically narrow airway from body habitus or enlarged
pharyngeal structures may also predispose to obstruction. Clinical presentation usually
includes snoring, daytime sleepiness, difficulty concentrating and fatigue. Clinical
course may progress to chronic hypoxemia with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular sequelae.;
