Abstract

This chapter briefly outlines normal sleep architecture and the important elements needed for sleep to function adequately and is followed by characteristics of sleep (quantity, quality, and duration) that have been related to obesity. Treatment options that are available for the obstructive sleep apnea and obesity hypoventilation syndrome (the two commonest sleep disorders associated with obesity) are explored.
