This disorder, considered to be one of the worst types of sleep disorders affecting 18 million American adults, happens when the throat muscles collapse during sleep and become incapable of keeping the airways open. Obstructive sleep apnea is marked by repeated pauses in breathing or shallow breathing during sleep. While a single pause lasts for more than 10 seconds, depending on the seriousness of the condition, the patient may experience 5 to 30 such pauses in an hour.
