Classic obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by recurrent apneas and hypopneas associated with oxygen desaturation and/or arousals. Women show more nocturnal arousals with clinical presentations such as such as daytime fatigue, concentration difficulty, mood swing associated with depression and insomnia, while men have more daytime excessive sleepiness. Development and consequence of OSA vary depending on subtypes of OSA.
