What it is
Snoring is the sound made when moving air causes tissues at the back of the throat to vibrate during sleep. Obstructive sleep apnoea is a condition in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep because the airway narrows or closes. This service covers assessment of snoring and sleep apnoea and planning any further tests or management.
