Sleep DisordersSleep disorders are primarily medical conditions marked by difficulty sleeping, unrefreshing sleep or insomnia. There are many sleep disorders with one of the most common and dangerous being sleep apnea. In this disorder airflow to the lungs is limited during sleep potentially leading to unrefreshing sleep and serious medical complications. Such complications may include heart attack, high blood pressure, irregular heart rhythms, heart failure and stroke. Because sleep apnea is common, dangerous and treatable the Alabama Sleep Clinic has developed specialized services such as the CPAP Clinic. In addition to sleep apnea many other sleep disorders can diminish quality
of sleep leading to lowered work performance as well as motor vehicle
and work related accidents.
