		<description><![CDATA[Thyroidectomy is a type of surgery that is performed to remove all or part of an enlarged thyroid gland. According to American Thyroid Association news release dated Oct. 26, 2011, this surgery appears to reduce snoring and other symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea. Study author Dr. Rebecca Sippel, chief of the Section of Endocrine Surgery at the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health admits that obstructive sleep apnea is a complex sleep disorder that can be caused by several factors. Be that as it may, the researchers found that “thyroidectomy alone can provide significant improvements in nearly<a href="http://apneatreatmentguide.com/blog/want-to-reduce-sleep-apnea-symptoms-thyroid-surgery-promises-relief/"> Continue Reading...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Did you know that 50% patients of mild sleep apnea (5 to 15 episodes an hour) and 20% with moderate condition (15 to 30 episodes an hour) suffer from positional sleep apnea? This kind of sleep apnea results in breathlessness when patients sleep on their back but gets instant relief as soon as they turn on their sides. Samuel Krachman, D.O. , professor of medicine and director of the Sleep Disorders Center at Temple University School of Medicine and Hospital  has recently led a team of researchers for  finding a relief device for back sleepers affected by positional sleep apnea.<a href="http://apneatreatmentguide.com/blog/new-device-promises-sleep-apnea-relief-for-back-sleepers/"> Continue Reading...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recurrent breathing distress is perhaps the worst feature of sleep apnea. However, according to new research finding presented on 11th June at the 20th Anniversary Meeting of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine (AADSM) in Minneapolis, Minn., such distress can be a thing of the past. There is now a novel oral device called Sonomat, which is essentially a type of Mandibular Advancement Splints (MAS) that effectively reduces AHI, or Apnea- Hypopnea Index (average number of breathing pauses happening in an hour) from 10.3 events per hour to 3.8 events per hour. The device can be effective for patients<a href="http://apneatreatmentguide.com/blog/faith-restoring-research-confirms-efficacy-of-mandibular-advancement-splints-mas-for-snoring-and-sleep-apnea/"> Continue Reading...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Adaptive Servo Ventilation is a recent breakthrough in the treatment of Sleep Apnea. Its difference from the existing sleep apnea treatments is that its air pressure support continuously adapts to the patient and also adjusts according to the level of breathing that the patient exerts. Adaptive Servo Ventilation is a special ventilation therapy that monitors and responds to breathing patterns. It also continuously analyzes the patient’s breathing pattern on a breath-by-breath basis and stores the information in a built-in computer. As a result it can immediately sense when the breathing is becoming unstable or when there is a cessation in<a href="http://apneatreatmentguide.com/blog/adaptive-servo-ventilation-major-breakthrough-in-sleep-apnea-treatment/"> Continue Reading...</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a very sad post on SleepGuide.com recently that serves as a wake-up call for all of us. The poster announces that someone her daughter knows just died as a result of his sleep apnea. The person who died went without oxygen to his brain for almost 30 minutes, and despite the efforts of the EMTs he could not be revived. He hadn&#8217;t treated his apnea. Link to the full post (and responses by others in the forum) is here. Moral of this sad story: if you have sleep apnea, don&#8217;t delay in getting it treated!

		<description><![CDATA[This is a pretty shocking piece of research: scientists at the Mayo Clinic have concluded that obstructive sleep apnea is one of two highest risk factors for sudden cardiac death (SCD) &#8211; the other risk factor being age (being 60 years of age or older). According to the researchers, OSA is implicated in sudden cardiac death because &#8220;low oxygen alters the blood vessels in a way that promotes heart disease&#8221;. The study was carried out on nearly 11,000 people over a period of 15 years. I&#8217;ve been trying to find a link to the complete study, but haven&#8217;t managed to<a href="http://apneatreatmentguide.com/blog/sleep-apnea-and-sudden-cardiac-death-mayo-clinic-finds-strong-link/"> Continue Reading...</a>]]></description>
