Question 1 of 5

There are three types of sleep apnea: obstructive,central and mixed complex. Obstructive apnea is the most common type. It is caused by the relaxation of the soft tissues which allows partial to total obstruction of the airway.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: TRUE. Obstructive sleep apnea is indeed the most common type, accounting for about 84% of all sleep apnea cases. This is due to the relaxation of soft tissues in the throat, leading to airway obstruction. Central sleep apnea, on the other hand, is characterized by a lack of respiratory effort due to a problem in the brain's signaling. Mixed complex apnea is a combination of obstructive and central apnea.
Therefore, the statement that obstructive apnea is the most common type is accurate based on prevalence and the underlying cause of airway obstruction.
