Long-term severe snoring at night, breath-holding and recurrent episodes of apnea lead to daytime drowsiness, dizziness and low energy, which is medically known as snoring or obstructive sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome, and may lead to cognitive dysfunction, obesity, hypertension, diabetes, cerebral infarction, respiratory failure, renal insufficiency and so on. A combination of surgical treatment and nocturnal positive pressure ventilation (ventilator) is the mainstay of treatment. Surgery is mainly for young people with good general condition and no obvious complications of snoring such as hypertension, heart rate disorders, diabetes and cerebral infarction. Ventilator is mainly for patients who are inoperable or have been evaluated to have unsatisfactory results with existing surgical conditions. Adhering to long-term weight loss, improving diet structure, quitting smoking and alcohol, and correcting sleep posture can help snorers recover. Tracheotomy can be considered for patients who cannot tolerate all treatment modalities.
