Sleep Apnea: i used to have it, could it come back? do i still have it and it’s just not active or something?

Written by admin on August 9, 2010 – 5:29 am -

hola, mmkay when i was little i had sleep apnea and i had to be monitored when i slept. and i guess i dont have it anymore because im not monitored and i dont take any medicines or anything.
what i’d like to know is:

*could sleep apnea come back one night?
*do people usually grow out of it
*is it usually in just babies/kids?
*is there medicines to take if it does/can come back?

Thanks <3

yes im sure it was sleep apnea, one night i stopped breathing and my mother woke up to the sound of me sleeping.

Bubble CPAP: Reducing Ventilator Usage with Premature Babies at Texas Health Resources

Written by admin on May 10, 2009 – 2:33 pm -

Caregivers at Texas Health Resources are using Bubble CPAP — Continuous Positive Airway Pressure — to address the issues that can arise in premature infants born with very low birthweight.

The intent is to reduce chronic lung disease.

Bubble CPAP provides a little bit of boost when babies are breathing spontaneously, to ist their own respirations and help to maintain lung inflation at the end of their breaths.

It is noninvasive and allows new parents to bond with their baby in a way that is not possible when an infant is on a ventilator.
