The book focuses on biomedical innovations related to the diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea. The latest diagnostic tools are described, including sleep laboratory equipment, wearables, and even smartphone apps. Innovative medical devices for treatment are also covered, such as CPAP, Auto-PAP, hypoglossal nerve stimulation, phrenic nerve stimulation, acoustic brain stimulation and electrical brain stimulation. This is an ideal book for biomedical engineers, pneumologists, neurologists, cardiologists, physiologists, ENT physicians, pediatrics, and epidemiologists who are interested in learning about the latest technologies in treating and diagnosing sleep apnea.
A representative cross section of the latest work in sleep research is presented in this book based on the international symposium "Sleep and Health Risk" held in Marburg in 1989. Clinical work, basic research and methodology are described by leading specialists in the field. The clinical topics cover both the diagnosis and therapy of various sleep and sleep-related disturbances. The methodology section includes the newest observation and analysis techniques. Other sections discuss neurological aspects, sleep-related breathing disorders, occupational medicine, cardiovascular diseases, pediatrics, endocrinology and the psychiatry of insomnia.
Die Beitrage des Buches befassen sich mit den Wechselwirkungen zwischen Schlaf und autonomer Regulation. Dabei stehen die schlafbezogenen Atemstoerungen (SBAS) sowie die Interaktion zwischen den autonomen Funktionen von Atmung und Kreislauf im Mittelpunkt des Interesses; letztere ist vor allem fur Patienten mit obstruktiver Schlafapnoe und Bluthochdruck von klinischer Bedeutung. Es werden aktuelle epidemiologische Daten mitgeteilt sowie klinische, diagnostische und therapeutische Konsequenzen diskutiert. Einen voellig neuen Aspekt bietet die Darlegung der Zusammenhange zwischen SBAS und nachtlicher Hypertonie, nachtlichen Herzrhythmusstoerungen und Ischamien.
