In people with obstructive sleep apnea, or breathing air lines upper or obstructed either in part or all of which cause respiratory tract affected, faltered many times during the night.

New research published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, recommends that those who had a heart attack while sleeping in night usually triggered by the presence of obstructive sleep apnea. So the conclusion is made based on observations on 92 people who had suffered a heart attack.

The patients are watched carefully, when the heart attack began. They also examined sleep patterns in a sleep laboratory for 17 days after a heart attack. Research on sleep shows, 64 patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea.

The patients with or without sleep disorders almost shared a history of ever using drugs and have the same background risk. But each has a different time when having a heart attack. Those who have obstructive sleep apnea six times more at risk of heart attack at night from midnight until 6 o’clock in the morning than during the day. Conversely, those who do not have a snoring disorder is usually experiencing a heart attack even in the morning (6 am) until afternoon.

Obstructive sleep apnea “can be a trigger” the appearance of a heart attack, wrote the scientists, whose one member is Dr. Fatima Kuniyoshi, PhD. This Kuniyoshi team then continued research to see if the deal is obstructive sleep apnea can reduce the risk of heart attack.
