Abstract

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleeping disorder. As the name suggests, it is associated with apneic and hypopneic breathing due to some kind of obstruction in the respiratory passage and thereby interferes with sleep. This review aims to give a concise overview on the disease, its pathophysiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and various methods of management.
