Treat your sleep apnea and find your way back into your life

What happens to your heart when you sleep?

“Many of my patients seek help because they are exhausted — they think they are sleeping, but the body has been working hard all night. As a doctor, I see what is not visible: how every pause in breathing triggers a stress reaction, releases stress hormones, raises heart rate and raises blood pressure — time and time again, night after night. It's a silent strain on the heart that most people don't know they have.

Sleep apnea is more common than many people think. About 600,000 Swedes live with the condition, and many are undiagnosed. What starts out as snoring and fatigue can over time contribute to high blood pressure, atrial fibrillation and increased risk of heart attack and stroke. That's why we at eHeart view sleep apnea as a heart issue — not just a sleep issue.

Our belief is that early intervention makes the biggest difference. By identifying and investigating sleep problems at an early stage, we can prevent serious cardiovascular disease and give your heart the best conditions to stay healthy, year after year.

We have made the process as simple as possible for you. You carry out the survey at home in your own bed — without unnecessary visits or waiting times. Then we analyze the results and give you quick, clear answers and a concrete plan ahead. My motivation is for you to get your energy back — and the peace of mind that your health is under control.”

Are you at risk?

Sleep apnea is more common than most people think -- and more dangerous than many people know. Every night of untreated breathing pauses stresses your heart, raises your blood pressure and increases your risk of atrial fibrillation and stroke. Yet an estimated 600,000 Swedes live with the condition without knowing about it.

With our rapid test, you can get a personalized risk assessment in two minutes based on the factors that research points out as most crucial - snoring, daytime fatigue, blood pressure, BMI, age and throat circumference. The test is based on established screening methods used in cardiology and sleep medicine.

The result does not replace a medical examination, but gives you a clear picture of whether you should take the next step -- and what that step is.
