3. What is Snoring?
ο Snoring is a sound created from turbulent airflow.
It is noisy breathing during sleep caused by the
exchange of a large volume of air through a
narrowed space, which in turn causes the tissues
of the nose and throat to vibrate.
4. How does snoring affect your
health?
ο This nighttime annoyance may indicate a serious
health condition, and it can disrupt household and
strain relationships.
ο Snoring is common. More than one-third of adults
snore at least a few nights each week.

sleep apnea may raise lifetime risk of developing such
health problems as high blood pressure, heart failure
and stroke.

their risk of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD.
5. What are the causes of snoring?
ο As patient doze off and progress from a lighter
sleep to a deep sleep, the muscles in the roof of
the mouth (soft palate), tongue and throat relax.
ο If the tissues in the throat relax enough, they
vibrate and may partially obstruct the airway.
ο The more narrowed airway, the more forceful the
airflow becomes.
ο Tissue vibration increases, and snoring grows
louder.
ο Snoring may be an occasional problem, or it may
be habitual.

ο Self Care: To restore peace and quiet as well as domestic
harmony, lifestyle changes, such asβ¦
ο Loose weight- Being overweight is a common cause of
snoring. Loose throat tissues are more likely to vibrate as
patient breathes, and extra bulkiness in the throat narrows
airway.
ο Sleep on one side.

disruptive snoring.
ο However, surgery isn't suitable for everyone who
snores.
ο People with obstructive sleep apnea, a potentially
serious disorder characterized by episodes of loud
snoring followed by periods of silence when breathing
briefly stops, aren't always good candidates for
surgery.
14. advice
ο Physical examination:
ο The partner may need to answer some questions
about when and how his/her partner snores to
help doctor assess the severity of the problem.
ο Parents are asked about the severity of a child's
snoring.
ο This may require that to stay overnight at a sleep
center to undergo an in-depth analysis of sleep
habits by a team of specialists.
15. Treatments
ο First recommends lifestyle changes, such as
losing weight, avoiding alcohol close to
bedtime and changing sleeping positions.
ο If lifestyle changes don't eliminate snoring:
ο Oral appliances.
ο Traditional surgery / uvulopalatopharyngoplasty
(UPPP).
ο Laser surgery.
ο Radio frequency tissue ablation (somnoplasty).
ο Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
16. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
machine to eliminate snoring and prevent sleep
apnea. A CPAP machine delivers just enough air
pressure to keep the upper airway passages open.
