What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea is a potentially life-threatening disease that should be handled seriously. It’s one of the most common causes of snoring, and it shows as a brief pause in breathing, with oxygen levels falling below 20% of normal for 10-20 seconds during sleep. It is known that if precautions are not taken, sleep apnea leads to carelessness, increasing the risk of traffic accidents and causing work accidents.
