Sleep-Related Hypoxemia Disorder

Sleep-Related Hypoxemia Disorder occurs when a person's blood oxygen levels drop during sleep due to breathing problems, often linked to conditions like sleep apnea. This can happen when the airway becomes blocked, making it hard to breathe, or when breathing becomes shallow or pauses during sleep. Low oxygen levels can disrupt sleep quality and lead to other health issues, such as fatigue, heart problems, and cognitive difficulties. Monitoring and treatment can help manage the disorder and improve overall health and sleep quality.
