CHANGING LIVES OVERNIGHT

Sleep disorders affect 50 to 70 million Americans. The most common disorder, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, causes a person to stop breathing repeatedly during sleep, and can lead to an increased risk of high blood pressure, heart attack and stroke.

Other common sleep disorders include Insomnia, Restless Legs Syndrome and Night Terrors. It goes without saying that these conditions can impact quality of life – not only robbing a person of a good night’s sleep but leaving many people too tired to enjoy life during the day.

Sleep Apnea Can Prevent Stroke Recovery

People with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are more likely to have difficulty recovering from a stroke if they had the disorder prior to having the stroke, according to a study that was presented at the American Academy of Neurology's annual meeting in Seattle. Researchers examined 174 patients at the Mayo Clinic who had been diagnosed with an acute ischemic stroke and found 60 percent had a high risk of OSA and seven had been diagnosed with OSA. The study found that patients with OSA were more disabled at discharge than patients without OSA. The seven patients diagnosed with OSA prior to their stroke had an increased risk of death during the first month of recovery, according to the article.(ScienceDaily.com)
