It is a fact that breathing problems persist when it comes to sleeping for some people and while the Airsonnett Protexo was meant for people with asthma, it may as well be something that can help them and people with breathing problems get a good night’s sleep.
The system aims to remove allergen particles from the air while making use of a certain technology called TLA (temperature-controlled laminar airflow). This creates a downward flow filtered airzone, promising to help out sleepers from c
People suffering from breathing problems can now look forward to a new device coming out in the market after ResMed has announced the coming launch of new humidifiers. ResMed will be launching the newest generation of the established Humicare line at the European Respiratory Society this September. Among the improved features of the new set of humidifiers include reduced noise, comfortable Easy-breathe form and an improved humidification system. With the aid of some clinicians, the proper diagnosis and recommendati
Sleeping disorders among kids seems to be rampantly growing and while parents exhaust all means by scolding them or even resorting to tactics like warm milk or implementing a strict monitoring to regulate their sleep patterns, parents may want to consider counseling as well. This was of course a result of a study that was conducted, which went as far as improving the academics of kids all thanks to better sleep. Parents may be too proud to seek professional help but sleep-related problems among kids i
Smoking or smoke cessation has been known to be deadly for innocent people around smokers but apparently it seems that people with asthma may encounter some problems as well with smokers around. Kids exposed to tobacco smoke have been found to have a harder time sleeping, going as far as encountering behavioral problems and poor school performance.
Researchers say it’s likely that asthmatic children exposed to tobacco smoke have more night-time breathing problems, which in turn disrupts their slee
How dangerous is snoring? Better yet, how do you classify your snoring? Technically it is impossible to distinguish snoring types but a study from the University of Chicago revealed that you can do so through urine testing. Researchers analyzed 90 children who had been referred to a clinic to be evaluated for experiencing breathing problems while sleeping, and 30 controls, and it was then discovered that children who had been diagnosed with dangerous snoring showed an increase in a number of proteins in their
If you are constantly using a car seat or carriage to aid your child, be wary. Normally they are used to cradle a child to sleep and make sure that they are secure when mobile in vehicles but if this study is any indication, these baby car seats may pose some health issues concerning the breathing of your child.
Many parents think of car seats as a cozy spot for kids to sleep, even outside of the car, because they’re so easy to use. However, these seats, which require infants to be placed in an upright position, can also cause breathing problems when babies sleep in them,
For anyone, sleep is important. With emphasis on the pregnant women and expectant parents, it would be advisable to get all the sleep you can get. Aside from potent health issues, lack of sleep may lead to small birth sizes, something that a study recently showed.
The study, which included 289 8-year-olds born healthy and full-term, found that the lower the children’s weight and length at birth, the greater their odds of having poor sleep or sleep disturbances such as sleep-related breathing problems or nightmares. What’s more, a mother’s prenatal drinking is a habit t
Now here is something that is bound to be controversial as far as understanding sleep apnea. We all know that sleep apnea and snorers have been found to be a health hazard since it is associated with the heart and the breathing problems leading to snoring. But apparently, this study that was made in Britain claimed otherwise. In fact it can even prolong life which is really quite a shocking revelation.
Peretz Lavie, who carried out the research at the Lloyd Rigler Sleep Apnoea Research Laborato
Through a study conducted by researchers from University of Louisville’s Galia Soukhova-O’Hare, it was confirmed that sleep apnea affects another health issue and this has something to do with erectile dysfunction and sex drives for men.
If you think of it, the logic makes sense. For one, how can you expect a man to have sex if he has breathing problems? Well even though the experiment was made through the use of the usual experimental mice, at least now it has been confirm
As far as overall physical appearance is concerned, who would ever think that this could be traced as another key indicator towards sleep related problems such as snoring, sleep apnea and excessive sleepiness? Apparently this was proven in a study at University of Virginia where it was found that children with larger necks should have clinical evaluation to be able to determine if sleep-related issues will exist.
Age-adjusted neck size correlated with body-mass index (BMI) a
