When it comes to identifying the extent of obstructive sleep apnea, it may depend on your profession. And thanks to the efforts of Snoring Isn’t Sexy LLC, a new way to determine the extent of sleep apnea has been revealed. The new method is the Epworth Sleepiness Scale which is a way of measuring daytime sleepiness.

“Several dentist members of Snoring Isn’t Sexy have commented that their airline pilot and truck driver patients are resistant to answering questions about snoring and sleep apnea for fear that a positive response and subsequent treatment might cost them their jobs. Because of this lack of testing and follow-up treatment, the problem continues to get worse as excessively sleepy people drive our trucks, fly our planes, engineer our trains and captain our ships resulting in an ever increasing accident and death rate. Snoring Isn’t Sexy has decided to take an active role in determining the extent of the problem with an anonymous screening survey.”

Indeed, our profession plays an integral role in identifying how serious sleep issues may sink in. In fact, there is nothing measurable when it comes to leveling the extent of sleep apnea is concerned. However, with these tools, that may all be addressed to help guide sleep disorder patients get through the problems of obstructive sleep apnea.

Sleep disorder patients get another lift with the announcement that Cardionet has introduced another device to help diagnose and monitor cardiac rhythms that can detect sleep disorders. The product, called the SomNet, was added to the Conshohocken, Pa., medical-device company’s existing mobile cardiac outpatient telemetry system.

SomNet works by measuring cyclic variation of heart rate, a rhythm that is caused by repeated arousals from sleep caused by such disorders.
