Snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are both related to narrowing of the upper airways during sleep. However, because the sex ratios of snoring and OSA are very different, snoring cannot simply be regarded as a preapneic state. Symptoms of OSA, a potentially life-threatening disorder, include excessive daytime sleepiness, nocturnal breath cessation and snoring and gasping. Most patients are obese, hypertensive men who eventually develop cardiovascular abnormalities. Snoring patients only need sleep laboratory evaluation if OSA is suspected based on clinical information.
