Sleep Apnea Pillow

Sleep Apnea Sufferers: Try Non-Invasive Methods First

Sleep apnea is a condition characterized by significant interruption in breaths during the sleep cycle. Usually, the condition is diagnosed during a sleep study after patients report constant daytime drowsiness, lack of concentration, and a feeling of never resting, even after receiving full night's sleep. An apneic event, or lapse in breathing, can last for ten seconds or more and cause blood oxygen to drop to dangerous levels. Although there are several forms of treatment, they can often be invasive, expensive, or difficult. It is recommended that people suffering from sleep apnea use a specially designed Sleep Apnea Pillow before moving on to the others.

Most instances of sleep apnea occur due to a slight obstruction of the airways when people sleep on their backs. In other words, snoring. When the tongue naturally falls to the back of the throat, snoring results and sleep apnea is much worse. A Sleep Apnea Pillow is designed to help people avoid sleeping on their backs and thus prevent the mild obstruction that causes the apnetic episodes. A proper Sleep Apnea Pillow supports the neck well and keeps it straight and aligned with the back. The right support also helps prevent the tongue from blocking the airways.

In addition to the use of the Sleep Apnea Pillow, some patients also make use of creative means to keep themselves from moving onto their back during the night. Most notably, placing a tennis ball into a sock or stocking and pinning the sock to the shirt helps. Other patients have had success using a positional alarm which is designed to sound off when the user has settled into a supine position. These means are used so eventually, the person suffering with sleep apnea will train their body to become accustomed to sleeping comfortably in positions that do not disrupt sleep and cause the apnetic episodes.
