Snoring is the most common sign of sleep apnea, a potentially fatal sleep disorder that affects approximately 20 million Americans. It is associated with heart disease, high blood pressure, strokes, and premature death, and is a common cause of driving accidents, yet it frequently goes undiagnosed. Snoring and Sleep Apnea is for people who have -- or suspect that they have -- sleep apnea. It is also written for their bed partners, families, and friends, and for health care professionals involved in sleep apnea management. The book provides answers to key questions, written in easy-to-understand terms, as well as the pros and cons of specific treatments. This extensively revised and updated third edition includes information on new surgical techniques, the treatment of children with snoring and sleep apnea problems, and new oral appliances for relief of snoring and sleep apnea.

Book excerpt: The definitive resource on the innovative use of DISE for obstructive sleep apnea Obstructive sleep apnea is the most prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, impacting an estimated 1.36 billion people worldwide. In the past, OSA was almost exclusively treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), however, dynamic assessment of upper airway obstruction with Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) has been instrumental in developing efficacious alternatives. Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications by Nico de Vries, Ottavio Piccin, Olivier Vanderveken, and Claudio Vicini is the first textbook on DISE written by world-renowned sleep medicine pioneers. Twenty-four chapters feature contributions from an impressive group of multidisciplinary international experts. Foundational chapters encompass indications, contraindications, informed consent, organization and logistics, patient preparation, and drugs used in DISE. Subsequent chapters focus on treatment outcomes, the role of DISE in therapeutic decision making and upper airway stimulation, pediatric sleep endoscopy, craniofacial syndromes, advanced techniques, and more. Key Highlights Comprehensive video library highlights common and rare DISE findings A full spectrum of sleep disordered breathing and OSA topics, from historic to future perspectives Insightful clinical pearls on preventing errors and managing complications including concentric and epiglottis collapse Discussion of controversial DISE applications including oral appliances and positional and combination therapies This unique book is essential reading for otolaryngology residents, fellows, and surgeons. Clinicians in other specialties involved in sleep medicine will also benefit from this reference, including pulmonologists, neurologists, neurophysiologists, maxillofacial surgeons, and anesthesiologists.

Book excerpt: A simple breakthrough approach to getting silent restful sleep and increasing your health and energy. With a foreword by eminent cardiologist and bestselling author, Dr Ross Walker.The secret to getting relief from snoring and sleep apnea, more oxygen to every cell in your body and increasing your energy, lies in getting your breathing right. Breathing is the most basic and most overlooked function of your body. People who snore and have sleep apnea do not breathe correctly. No exceptions. Research shows they 'over-breathe' - breathe 2-3 times more air per minute than is normal, both when AWAKE and ASLEEP. Rapid inhalation during sleep, when the throat muscles are relaxed, causes vibration and turbulence in the throat (snoring), and may create a suction effect on the throat sufficient to obstruct breathing. This does not happen when breathing correctly - slowly and gently, in and out your nose, all day and all night. Unfortunately, checking someone's habitual breathing pattern is not part of standard medical diagnosis, so chronic over-breathing is rarely identified.This book, written by a highly qualified and experienced physiotherapist, outlines a simple, rational explanation for what is making you snore and have sleep apnea, shows you how to identify what faulty breathing patterns you have and teaches you how to change them, step-by-step, to a more normal breathing pattern. It is scientifically proven that you can 'retrain' your breathing. The first improvements are generally seen within hours. It is common for people to sleep better right from the first night.YOU CAN CHANGE THE WAY YOU BREATHE.The author, Tess Graham, has over 30 years' clinical experience in physiotherapy, with 23 years working exclusively with breathing-related disorders. She has helped thousands of sufferers of sleep-breathing disorders, many of whom had struggled to adjust to CPAP machines. Tess has been involved in medical research and is one of the few people directly accredited by the late Professor K.P. Buteyko in his method of breathing retraining. The approach she has developed is quick, gentle, highly effective and easily do-able for busy people, the highly anxious and stressed.The book contains case studies, including with pre-and post-breathing retraining sleep studies, showing the effectiveness of the breathing retraining approach with snoring and serious sleep apnea. You will find the information in this book inspiring, compelling and life changing. Visit TessGraham.com.au or BreatheAbility.com for more information including audio products. "This book is an invaluable resource. Its easy-to-follow program shows us how to breathe the way nature intended - silently, gently and rhythmically." Dr Ross G T Walker, FRACP. Consultant Cardiologist. "This book gives a full description of the technique for getting your breathing right as well as wonderful case studies of people who have been relieved from the debilitating effects of poor sleep, snoring and sleep apnoea. My patients have found it extremely helpful and I'm so pleased to have this resource to recommend to them." Dr Kim Glass, MB ChB.
