Research Article: EEG Power Spectral Density in NREM Sleep is Associated with the Degree of Hypoxia in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Introduction:
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder that affects many individuals. , It is characterized by recurrent episodes of complete or partial upper airway obstruction (apnea) during sleep, leading to sleep fragmentation, , intermittent hypoxia, snoring, daytime sleepiness, , inattention, memory loss, and behavioral abnormalities. – Chronic hypoxia associated with OSA may adversely affect nervous system function, increasing the likelihood of structural and functional brain…
