– Is sleep disorder the cause of sudden death during sleep and cerebral hemorrhage?
– The cause of sleep apnea should be found through polysomnography and treated with positive airway pressure.
[이데일리 이순용 기자] The hot summer has passed and autumn has arrived with cool mornings and evenings. Be careful during seasonal changes as the cold air causes severe vasoconstriction, which can lead to sudden death. Sudden death, which occurs suddenly and completely unexpectedly, occurs within one hour of the onset of symptoms and is caused by cerebral hemorrhage or myocardial infarction. In the United States, 50% of sudden deaths were due to cerebrovascular disease or cardiovascular disease.
A study was published showing that one of the causes of these cerebrovascular diseases is “sleep disorders.” According to Dr. Virend Somers of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, experiments on patients in their 30s and 40s suffering from sleep apnea showed that when the lowest oxygen saturation during sleep decreased by 10%, sudden death or cardiac arrest occurred. It was revealed that the risk of death due to this increased by 14%. Additionally, when oxygen saturation falls below 78%, the risk of sudden cerebrovascular disease death increases to 80%. Patients with moderate to severe sleep apnea with a respiratory distress index of 20 or more times per hour had a risk of death from any cause more than three times higher than that of the general population.
Regarding this, Jin-gyu Han, director of the Seoul Sleep Center, said, “If the symptoms of sleep apnea are severe, oxygen saturation in the blood decreases, putting strain on the brain, which can lead to sudden death.” He added, “Symptoms such as daytime drowsiness, daytime fatigue, and memory loss can occur if sleep apnea occurs.” “And the risk of diabetes and high blood pressure increases up to eight times,” he emphasized.
There are many treatment methods for sleep apnea, including weight control, posture therapy, positive airway pressure therapy, intraoral devices, and surgical treatment. Each of these treatment methods has its own indications and pros and cons, so accurate diagnosis and treatment by a sleep specialist are provided. is important.
In order to accurately diagnose snoring and sleep apnea, it is important to diagnose through polysomnography, and if sleep apnea is confirmed, breathing treatment using a positive airway pressure device is most effective. Because positive airway pressure therapy plays a role in artificially supplying air, it restores the reduced oxygen concentration to normal, preventing sleep apnea and improving sleep quality.
If you find yourself dozing off all the time during the change of seasons in the fall, you should suspect that you are suffering from fatigue. Symptoms of fatigue occur because our body’s biological rhythm, which is sensitive to temperature, cannot properly follow sudden daily temperature changes or changes in the external environment. Because poor sleep quality is also a cause of symptoms of fatigue, it is helpful to maintain indoor humidity at 50-60% because in dry autumn, the nasal mucosa dries out during sleep and snoring becomes more severe or mouth breathing occurs.
