People with obstructive sleep apnea (osa) who slept less than seven hours per night had a higher risk of death compared to those with longer sleep, researchers reported Researchers have known for some time that osa is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and other health problems.

The study results led to many other studies to improve sleep apnea treatment An nhlbi partnership with the national institute. The workshop, entitled “heterogeneity and sex differences in obstructive sleep apnea Personalized approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and implementation” is designed to explore the intricacies of obstructive sleep apnea (osa) and the diverse aspects of its diagnosis and treatment.
