A new clinical syndrome, sleep apnea associated with insomnia, has been characterized. Repeated episodes of apnea occur during sleep. Onset of respiration is associated with general arousal and often complete awakening, with a resultant loss of sleep. An important clinical implication is that patients complaining only of insomnia may be suffering from this syndrome.
一种新的临床综合征——与失眠相关的睡眠呼吸暂停已得到明确描述。睡眠期间会反复出现呼吸暂停发作。呼吸开始与全身觉醒相关，且常导致完全觉醒，从而造成睡眠缺失。一个重要的临床意义是，仅主诉失眠的患者可能患有这种综合征。
