Episode 9Heart Disease & Sleep

“Heart disease is the number one killer all over the world and is the most common diagnosis that patients go home with from hospital,” explains Dr. Patel in this &SLEEP episode. Dr. Patel discusses how the breathing disruption caused by sleep apnea can increase the risk of heart disease and symptoms such as atrial fibrillation “a-fib,” and stroke, and explains how treatment of sleep apnea can help reduce patients’ risk of heart problems overall.
