SCHONFELD, Daniel y PEREZ-CHADA, Daniel. Trastornos respiratorios del sueño durante el embarazo. Rev. am. med. respir. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.1, pp.25-32. ISSN 1852-236X.
Pregnancy is a special condition during women life where several physiologic, morphologic, metabolic and emotional changes take place. Due to the interaction of these changes sleep complaints are frequent during pregnancy. Breathing disorders during sleep are unusual in young non-obese women; however pregnancy may promote snoring and in certain cases sleep apnea. In this review we will discuss the relationship between pregnancy progression and sleep complaints. We will present different approaches to confirm the diagnosis as well as the therapeutic strategies with special focus in sleep apnea. An algorithm for the detection and treatment of sleep breathing disorders during sleep is proposed.
