Does #SleepApnea Pave Way for #CognitiveDecline?

Researchers have found a critical link between #obstructivesleepapnea during the #rapideyemovement stage of #sleep and early signs of #brain changes associated with #cognitive decline.

CPAP week 1 passed with no major issues. I've been using it all night long and getting high scores from the Bluetooth connected app. Feeling less drowsy in afternoons too. Some minor tickling irritation of my nose while I'm using it, and the first couple exhales require more force, but otherwise good. A lot of people have a horrible time with these gadgets. I guess I feel lucky! #CPAP #ObstructiveSleepApnea #sleep #apnea #therapy

Entering a New Era in #SleepApnea Treatment

TL:DR Tirzepatide resulted in 50% reduction in AHI (apnea-hypoxia index) and a lowering of blood pressure (which may reduce risk of stroke and heart attack!)

#ObstructiveSleepApnea is one of the most common respiratory disorders worldwide. Persons with obstructive sleep apnea can have loud #Snoring that is detrimental to social relationships and have breathing problems that result in recurrent nocturnal awakenings, unrefreshing sleep, and excessive daytime sleepines —effects that together can substantially impair quality of life

Looking for recommendations for a #travel #CPAP machine purchasable in the United Kingdom.

Bonus points if it can be battery powered for use off-grid. Please nothing WiFi enabled. The smaller the better.

Boosts for reach much appreciated! Thank you!

More data from Epic. They looked at 3.9M patients with #AFib, comparing rates between pts with and without #ObstructiveSleepApnea. They found that AFib + OSA have a higher risk of #stroke, but current risk model (without OSA) is still adequate. #CoolBeans https://www.epicresearch.org/articles/ischemic-stroke-more-common-in-afib-patients-with-osa-but-cha-ds-vasc-score-adequately-captures-risk

@auscandoc @CassandraZeroCovid Having treated a bunch of #ObstructiveSleepApnea (#OSA) patients, I can vouch for it’s benefit in terms of improved day-to-day functioning, improved blood pressure control and reported reduced risk of stroke and heart disease. Once stabilized on CPAP, I then try to work with them on health and weight reduction. Wish I could put them all on #Mounjaro!

We knew this, which is why it is important to screen for #ObstructiveSleepApnea (#OSA)!

Self-care is very important for healthy people & super crucial for those living with a disease(s). This is an article I wrote about why I practice self-care daily.
