    Author: de Groen JH, Berg JP, Mays HE, Sanches H, ten Velde GP, Visser BF.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Geneeskd; 1989 Jul 29; 133(30):1496-501. PubMed ID: 2797251.
    Abstract:
    Snoring is an epiphenomenon of obstructive respiration during sleep, which may be caused by higher airway abnormalities and may result in impaired quality of nocturnal sleep, complaints of fatigue and daytime sleepiness, decreased performance level, psychic complaints and cardiovascular problems. The test results of seven patients complaining of excessive snoring and daytime sleepiness are discussed. The importance of multidisciplinary management of the underlying pathology is stressed.
