4. Snoring: Not Funny, Not Hopeless The noisy sounds of snoring occur when there is an obstruction to the freeflow of air through the passages at the back of the mouth and nose. http://www.entnet.org/healthinfo/snoring/snoring.cfm

ENT LINK ENT Health Information Snoring and Sleep Disorders Snoring: Not Funny, Not Hopeless Snoring: Not Funny, Not Hopeless Forty-five percent of normal adults snore at least occasionally, and 25 percent are habitual snorers. Problem snoring is more frequent in males and overweight persons, and it usually grows worse with age. More than 300 devices are registered in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office as cures for snoring. Some are variations on the old idea of sewing a sock that holds a tennis ball on the pajama back to force the snorer to sleep on his side. (Snoring is often worse when a person sleeps on his back). Some devices reposition the lower jaw forward; some open nasal air passages; a few others have been designed to condition a person not to snore by producing unpleasant stimuli when snoring occurs. But, if you snore, the truth is that it is not under your control whatsoever. If anti-snoring devices work, it is probably because they keep you awake. What Causes Snoring? The noisy sounds of snoring occur when there is an obstruction to the free flow of air through the passages at the back of the mouth and nose. This area is the collapsible part of the airway (see illustration) where the tongue and upper throat meet the soft palate and uvula. Snoring occurs when these structures strike each other and vibrate during breathing. People who snore may suffer from: Poor muscle tone in the tongue and throat. When muscles are too relaxed, either from alcohol or drugs that cause sleepiness, the tongue falls backwards into the airway or the throat muscles draw in from the sides into the airway. This can also happen during deep sleep.

SNORING INFORMATION Updated January 29, 1999 Under construction Sleep Apnea and CPAP Oral/Dental Devices Surgery Articles What is Snoring? I'm sure just about everyone is somewhat familiar with snoring . You probably know at least one person who snores. It could be your bed partner, your parents, grandparents, even Uncle Ned or Aunt Sophie who may snore at various sound levels. Some laugh and make jokes about it, but it can be a symptom of a serious disorder called obstructive sleep apnea . And if it is obstructive sleep apnea, then it is no laughing matter, and that individual needs to get evaluated by a sleep specialist. Information on apnea is available at the above link. Snoring is a noise produced when an individual breathes (usually produced when breathing in) during sleep which in turn causes vibration of the soft palate and uvula (that thing that hangs down in the back of the throat). The word "apnea" means the abscence of breathing. All snorers have incomplete obstruction ( a block) of the upper airway. Many habitual snorers have complete episodes of upper airway obstruction where the airway is completly blocked for a period of time, usually 10 seconds or longer. This silence is usually followed by snorts and gasps as the individual fights to take a breath. When an individual snores so loudly that it disturbs others, obstructive sleep apnea is almost certain to be present.

Subscribe now >> Snoring Sends a Serious Signal Snoring can be a lot more than an irritant to bed partners and other listeners. It’s often a symptom of progressive sleep apnea syndrome, a disorder that not only stymies the snorer’s slumber but also can have serious effects on blood pressure, risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke and even mortality. Obstructive sleep apnea, the most common disorder diagnosed through sleep studies, is a condition that not only interrupts a good night’s rest but can have significant effects on blood pressure, risk of cardiovascular disease, stroke, and even mortality. B. Tucker Woodson, MD , treats many snorers who suffer from sleep apnea. A Medical College of Wisconsin Associate Professor of Otolaryngology and Communication Sciences and Director of the Froedtert Center for Sleep, Dr. Woodson discussed sleep apnea and its consequences in a recent interview with HealthLink. “By far and away the most common sleep disorder that we see here (at the MCW sleep laboratory) is obstructive sleep apnea. It probably represents 80% or more of the sleep disorders that present to the physician for a sleep study,” Dr. Woodson said.

13. Snoring What causes snoring? The noises of snoring are generated within the breathing passages http://www.seniorindian.com/snoring.htm

Home Free E-Mail Positive Outlook Social Aspects ... Contact Us Snoring SeniorIndian.com What causes snoring? The noises of snoring are generated within the breathing passages. The sounds are caused by the vibration or flapping of the tissues lining the air passages. Noises can result from a narrowing of the nasal passage which generates a whistling noise. The vibration of the soft palate (or roof of the mouth) causes the fluttering vibration sounds. This may, in turn, have been caused by narrowness of the nasal passage causing turbulent or irregular air flow which contributes to the fluttering of the soft palate. The tongue may fall back into the airway narrowing the airway and at times causing blockage. This may also contribute to the snoring noise. It is most important to stress that snoring, in most patients, is due to multiple factors, each playing some part in the snoring process. Factors which are important in this regard include narrowing or blockage of the upper airway passages through anatomical or injury reasons as well as factors contributing to congestion of the soft tissues of the airways, e.g. smoking, alcohol, acid reflux from the stomach affecting the throat tissues, obesity, ageing and hormonal factors. Is snoring dangerous?

Considerations Return to top Snoring is common in adults and usually not an indication of an underlying disorder. Sometimes, however, snoring can be a sign of a serious sleep disorder called sleep apnea . This means you have periods when you are not breathing for more than 10 seconds while you sleep. These periods of "apnea" are indicated by a long period of silence just after you have been snoring. They are followed by a sudden snort or gasp when breathing resumes. Then, snoring starts all over again. If you have sleep apnea, this cycle generally happens several times a night. The major risk from this condition is stroke due to episodes when your brain is not getting enough oxygen. If sleep apnea is suspected, your doctor (or a sleep specialist) can test you for it by doing a sleep study either at home or in a hospital setting.

Snoring is noisy breathing through the mouth and nose during sleep. It can occur when you are breathing in or out. What causes snoring and who is at risk? Snoring occurs when air does not flow smoothly through the air passages, or when the soft tissues or muscles in your air passages vibrate. As you fall into a deep sleep, the muscles in your tongue, throat and roof of your mouth (soft palate) relax. This muscle relaxation causes your throat tissues to sag. As you breathe, the sagging tissues narrow your airway and vibrate or flutter, creating the sound of snoring. The narrower your airway becomes, the greater the vibration...and the louder your snoring. Snoring affects 45 per cent of the population from time to time and an estimated 25 per cent of people are habitual snorers. There are a number of reasons why you may snore.
