What is sleep apnoea?

Sleep apnoea is a common sleep disorder characterised by repeated interruptions in breathing
throughout the sleep cycle. These interruptions, called apnoeas, are caused by the collapse
of soft tissue in the airway, which prevents oxygen from reaching the lungs. Sleep apnoea
can have a serious impact on energy, mental performance, and long-term health.
There are effective treatments available to counteract these symptoms.*
