Da Vinci Robot Cures OSA Patient

admin — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 20:02:38 +0000

Obstructive Sleep Apnea may very well be one of the problems that beseech people these days but if the medical experience by this lady who had been suffering from it is any indication, robotics may soon provide a big boost towards curbing down the sleep apnea problem a lot of people have. Dorothy Bruhling, 75, had been having rough spells with OSA which may grow serious for some people if they are not careful. But thanks to some medical referrals, Dorothy was able to meet up with Dr. Robert DeFatta, an otolaryngologist who eventually suggested a surgical approach with the aid of the da Vinci robot to remove a discovered obstructive tissue that was interfering with her breathing. After keeping Dorothy for two nights for observation purposes, she shared that after the surgery that she had not slept that good for two nights in a row. “All patients after they heal feel so much better,” said DeFatta, who has performed more than 40 base of tongue resections. Bruhling was the first in Wisconsin, he added.

Jolly Jumper Deluxe Sleep Rite Infant Sleep Positioner

admin — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:34:43 +0000

Normally, parents would have to place babies in the proper positions for body or head shaping purposes, or simply to make sure that infants get the ideal position that suits them most when it comes to sleeping. And all that may be satisfied by the Jolly Jumper Deluxe Sleep Rite Infant Sleep Positioner, something that costs around $18 over at Amazon.com. However, while this sleep positioned does seem comfortable thanks to the fabrics and foam construction that make it up, it would be advisable for folks to still keep an eye on the child. Babies have their share of having limited movement and lacking in strength when they start tossing and turning. And for some cases, that may lead to suffocation if they are left unattended. The Jolly Jumper Deluxe Sleep Rite Infant Sleep Positioner may seem neat to have for babies but parents should also know better that these aids aim to help kids sleep but not necessarily left on their own.

A Nap Room? Why Not?

admin — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:17:40 +0000

Going over some blogs, I found this curious post over at Tech Crunch. Presumably it seems to be something that was intended to be a joke, considering that the Tech Crunch HQ claims that sleep is not among the things that are in mind when working over there. However, this brings us to think, sleep is indeed essential and although some may deny it, a few minutes of nap time does help in the productivity area, something shared by one of the commenters over there. Everything started from a simple email with NapQuest on the subject. The whole thing seems to be an excerpt from special rooms designed for some people who work over 8 hours a day to take some nap or so. While some may find it hilarious, on the health aspect, the request does seem reasonable. Either that or go home early. Then again, that would mean more pressure at work or allowing the company operations to suffer due to lack of work done for the day.

Never Sleep Alone Bed Set

admin — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 20:37:53 +0000

Bed sheets and sets would normally be a great way to aid in one’s sleeping endeavours but the Never Sleep Alone Bed Set may not necessarily do that. In fact, this bed set seems to be unadvisable for the kids who want to sleep soundly at night, no thanks to its creepy design which may lead them to sleeping somewhere else. Anyway, the Never Sleep Alone Bed set offers an uncanny and weird design, featuring printed Zombie arms which may bring trauma to anyone afraid of the undead. On the other hand, for the people who live in the extremes and odd scenarios, a night light may eventually help negate such negative vibes. The Never Sleep Alone Bed Set retails for about $138.55 over at Etsy. Weird but certain to be a hit with the ones who want to sleep on the wild side with some scary twists.
