睡眠呼吸中止症（Sleep apnea）是指在睡眠中出現至少 10 秒以上的呼吸暫停，常伴隨打鼾與日間嗜睡。猝睡症（A）是不可控制地隨時入睡；失眠（C）是入睡或維持睡眠困難；不寧腿症候群（B）是腿部有不適感導致強烈移動慾望。了解這些區別有助於提供正確的衛教（如減重、使用 CPAP）。
Sleep apnea is characterized by temporary cessations of breathing during sleep, often accompanied by loud snoring and daytime drowsiness. This differs from narcolepsy, which involves sudden sleep attacks, and restless legs syndrome, which is defined by an urge to move the legs.
