Sleep apnoea is a common and frequently searched respiratory condition that affects breathing during sleep, often leading to loud snoring, poor sleep quality, and daytime fatigue. Left untreated, it can increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), the most prevalent type, occurs when throat muscles relax intermittently and block the airway.
At Baby Memorial Hospital, sleep apnoea is diagnosed through comprehensive overnight sleep studies in our dedicated Sleep Lab. Our specialists offer personalised treatment, including CPAP titration to determine the ideal pressure level for airway support. With early detection and appropriate therapy, patients experience better sleep, reduced health risks, and improved daytime performance.
