Sleep apnea is a condition in which a person’s breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. The most common type of sleep apnea is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which occurs when the muscles at the back of the throat fail to keep the airway open. This results in brief pauses in breathing, leading to disrupted sleep patterns and potential health consequences.
