Question
question 3 (1 point) seth got a sleep study because he was snoring and would stop breathing in his sleep. the study showed he had a disruption of brain signals which did not tell his muscles to breath. seth was probably diagnosed with ______. central sleep apnea obstructive sleep apnea narcolepsy sids
Central sleep apnea is caused by a disruption in brain signals that control breathing muscles, leading to pauses in breathing during sleep. Obstructive sleep apnea is due to physical airway blockage (not brain signal issues), narcolepsy involves excessive daytime sleepiness/sleep attacks, and SIDS is sudden infant death syndrome (not applicable to an adult like Seth). So the correct diagnosis here is central sleep apnea.
