Feeling Daytime SLEEPINESS ? Your partner always SNORE loud when you wish to sleep well ?
Sleep Clinic @ AlphaThe Sleep Clinic aims to establish a dedicated facility for the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of Sleep Related Breathing Disorder (SRBD) & Insomnia. SRBD causes a fall in the oxygen content of the blood during sleep. This is a serious but often under-recognized condition which is associated with significant illness and death. People with SRBD have increased risk of stroke, hypertension, heart disease and motor vehicle accidents (through falling asleep while driving - 'Sleep Driving')
What is Sleep Apnoea?
Sleep apnoea is a common and serious sleep disorder affecting 5% of adults. Males overweight people, smokers and drinkers are more prone to suffer from this disorder.
Sleep apnoea suffers are mostly heavy snorers; they stop breathing and choke many times during sleep. The apnoea-choking-awakening cycle may occur up to hundreds of times a night. As a result, sleep is broken up into segments that cause poor sleep quality resulting in daytime sleepiness.
睡眠息症是一种睡眠障碍，平均每二十个成年人就有一个患上，当中男性，肥胖，酒，吸烟及有服安眠药习惯人士患上的机会较大。
患者在睡眠时，因不能呼吸引致暂时息，并常从睡梦中醒来。类似情况在一晚间可以发生十数次，至数百次不等。患者自身不易察觉。由于睡眠断须进行，患者不能享有优质睡眠。引致日间精神不足。
