Abstract:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disorder that is part of the complex sleep disorder breathing syndrome. According to the International Classification of Sleep Disorders-Third Edition (ICSD-3) states that OSA does not only include obstructive apnea and hypopnea but also relates to respiratory effort (Sateia, 2014). Actually OSA symptoms often occur, but difficult to detect. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a condition of periodic upper airway obstruction during sleep characterized by repeated episodes of breathing processes (apneas) or partial upper airway obstruction (hypopneas). This event is often associated with a decrease in blood oxygen saturation (Throphy, 2012). Study subjects were taken from the hospital patient population.
