| "I’ve been using my SomnoGuard AP daily for nearly 9 months now and it works great!
A couple of months back, I even carried out a simple test to compare the following; 3 days sleeping with SomnoGuard AP and 3 days without SomnoGuard AP. The outcome was apparent. When I was not wearing the SomnoGuard to sleep, I felt so tired during the day that I could not do my work properly. However, when I slept with SomnoGuard AP, I felt fresh in the mornings and the rest of the days were good. I was able to go through the days without feeling tired and enjoyed doing my work at the office."

| "My wife told me that my snoring was almost non-existent when I slept on my back. She also commented that I slept more soundly. I moved less on my bed throughout the night. When I woke up that first morning, I also felt more fresh and my mouth didn't feel so dry like before."

| "That very night, I wore my SomnoGuard AP to sleep for the first time. On the following morning, I called Panmedic to tell them that I woke up feeling totally fresh. The device had indeed solved my snoring problem. I regretted that I did not use it earlier. It would have solved my wife's worries about my sleep apnea and she could have avoided her many sleepless nights. Now, I use it every night."

| "I have used SomnoGuard AP for a week. I am happy to use it. Although I am still in the process of getting used to having something in my mouth while I sleep, I believe I am already benefiting from the device. I feel less tired during the day when compared to before I got the SomnoGuard device."

| "My experience with the product was as follows:
1. After 2 days of wearing SomnoGuard AP there was no more discomfort. 2. According to my wife, heavy snoring has been substantially reduced, if it ever happens. 3. Most importantly, the temporary arrest of breathing which I considered as the main reason for trying SomnoGuard AP has been stopped." Dr. B. Romahn | Age: 50+ Petaling Jaya | Dec 2009. |

| "I had the severity of my obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) analysed by a sophisticated polysomnographic device. It discovered that I also suffered from central sleep apnea (CSA) which is more serious. After using SomnoGuard AP, the AHI (Apnea Hypopnea Index) reading reduced by 81% while the CSA episodes/hr reduced by 61%. Now, I wake up fresh every morning. I do not suffer any more daytime tiredness and sleepiness. My wife says I do not snore while I sleep. How nice it would have been for me if SomnoGuard AP was available tens of years ago! That's how long I had suffered." M.T.Yap | Age: 60+ Kuala Lumpur | Dec. 2009 |

About Sleep Apnea -
And Save Money Too!
Sleep apnea has been associated with:
- accelerated coronary atherogenesis.
- precipitation of myocardial infarction.
- malignant cardiac dysrhythmias.
- systemic hypertension.
- pulmonary hypertension.
- left and right ventricular failure.
An estimated 50% of congestive heart failure patients and many patients with atrial fibrillation have central or mixed sleep apneas, often with a Cheyne-Stokes respiration pattern. Failure to control the sleep-related breathing problems can lessen the effectiveness of treatments for heart failure and result in accelerated deterioration of heart function.
Sleep apnea may worsen insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Sleep apnea has been associated with low testosterone levels.
Sleep apnea can be worsened by testosterone administration even in testosterone-deficient individuals.
Sleep apnea is increased in prevalence in patients with acromegaly, Cushing's syndrome, hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, and polycystic ovary syndrome.
Sleep deprivation has adverse effects on endocrine function, glucose tolerance and body weight.
Sleep apnea has been associated with chronic liver injury with steatohepatitis and elevated liver enzymes.
GE reflux tends to worsen markedly during sleep, particularly in regard to episode durations: as a consequence of recumbent posture, greatly reduced swallowing frequency, diminished awareness of episodes and (in many patients) due to aggravation by sleep apnea.
Sleep apnea is associated with sleep-related GE reflux, and treatment of sleep apnea can improve GERD.
Daytime sleepiness has been identified as a major predictor of reduced lifespans and increased risk of cardiovascular disease in elderly women, who also were found in another study to have a higher mortality rate from sleep apnea than elderly men.
Many sedative hypnotics given widely to geriatric patients worsen sleep apnea, while increasing the risk of nocturnal confusion, sleepwalking and self-injury during sleep.
A significant number of patients seeking evaluation for possible Alzheimer's dementia instead suffer from reversible cognitive and memory difficulties arising from sleep apnea.
Treatment of sleep apnea has been found to improve cognition in some patients with Alzheimer's dementia.
The prevalence of sleep apnea increases with age and is particularly high in seniors.
Sleep apnea in the elderly is often not associated with a history of loud snoring.
Sleep apnea has been found in several studies in approximately 60% of male stroke victims.
The prevalence of sleep apnea increases rapidly after menopause, a trend that is likely to be increased by avoidance of hormone replacement therapy.
Sleep-related breathing disorders are far more common in women than originally thought, and frequently take the form of upper airway resistance syndrome which is frequently found in individuals of normal body weight who do not snore excessively.
Some studies have found sleep-related breathing abnormalities in the majority of patients suffering from fibromyalgia: a condition more common in women.
Some women develop sleep apnea during pregnancies, necessitating a careful history.

Renal transplantation has been reported to eliminate sleep apnea in patients with kidney failure.
Acoustic reflectance studies found pharyngeal narrowing in kidney failure patients: a possible factor in the pathogenesis of sleep apnea.
Restless legs syndrome connected to sleep apnea is strongly associated with renal failure.
Sleep apnea was reported to be the cause of nocturia in 40% of men seeking help for that complaint: a phenomenon mediated by increased release of atrial natriuretic peptide.
Hypertension is a recognized complication of sleep apnea.
Reports have recommended assessment for sleep apnea in patients with kidney disease who are hypertensive.
Sleep apnea has been associated with microalbuminuria, and hypertensive sleep apnea patients have an increased prevalence of renal function abnormalities.
Sleep related seizures can result from the tendency (in many patients) for seizures to occur primarily during sleep, seizure precipitation by sleep-related cardiac dysrhythmia or breathing disorders, or a combination of both.
