What is Obstructive Sleep Apnoea? | Prof. Michael Polkey | OneWelbeck
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a condition in which people breathe shallowly or stop breathing for short periods while sleeping. This can occur many times at night, leading to frequent arousals and disturbed sleep. These in turn can cause excessive daytime sleepiness, impaired concentration and hypoxaemia.
The consequences of untreated OSA include impaired daytime mental functioning, personality changes and social impairment. Importantly, it can have serious consequences on activities requiring alertness.
OSA is common, affecting an estimated 1.5 million adults in the UK, and yet up to 85% are undiagnosed, therefore untreated.
