Abstract

Background and objective: The apnea syndrome is characterized by an abnormal breath pause or reduction in the airflow during sleep. It is reported in the literature that it affects 2% of middle-aged women and 4% of middle-aged men, approximately. This study has vital importance, especially for the elderly, the disabled, and pediatric sleep apnea patients.
