Snoring (snoring) is a widespread sleep phenomenon that is commonplace, and some people see snoring as a sign of a good night’s sleep. So, is snoring a disease or not? Snoring (snore) is the sound made by the impact on the mucous membrane edge and the secretion on the mucous membrane surface caused by vibration when the airflow of the upper airway passes during sleep. Snoring with a loudness of 60 dB or less is often normal. If the loudness of snoring exceeds 60 dB, which affects the rest of the roommates and causes annoyance to others, it is called snoring disease. Simple snoring does not cause obvious symptoms of hypoxia or apnea; heavy snoring (breath-holding type) can be more than 80 dB, and accompanied by different degrees of hypoxia or apnea, which is a disease. The main hazards of snoring (medically known as respiratory sleep apnea hypoventilation syndrome, which can be divided into obstructive type, central type and mixed type) are manifested as follows: 1. The neuropsychiatric consequences of long-term sleep discontinuity are depression, cognitive dysfunction and inattentiveness to traffic and industrial accidents. 2. Cardiovascular consequences of chronic sleep hypoventilation, including pulmonary hypertension, hypertension, congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction and stroke, and even sudden death (nocturnal apnea of more than 120 seconds is prone to sudden death in the early morning hours). If you or a loved one experience daytime drowsiness, fatigue, memory loss, poor concentration, decreased work efficiency, morning headache, dizziness, anxious personality, dry mouth, decreased sexual function, increased nighttime urination, intermittent snoring during sleep time, apnea with breath-holding, etc. This requires a number of tests, mainly respiratory sleep monitoring (PSG), which is a non-invasive monitoring tool. Bring the monitoring device to sleep for one night, and the next day the results of the monitoring will be analyzed manually, and the results of the monitoring can tell you whether you have a disease, its severity, and the treatment that can be taken.
