Sleep Architecture in a Canine Model of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) causes recurrent sleep disruption that is thought to contribute to excessive daytime sleepiness in patients with this disorder. The purpose of this study was to determine the specific effects of OSA on overall sleep architecture in a canine model of OSA.
