As a major threat to transportation safety, sleep apnea in professional drivers cannot be ignored.
Recent research demonstrates that:
- Sleep Apnea affects up to 28% of Commercial Truck Drivers
- Driving with untreated sleep apnea is equivalent to driving with a .06-.08 blood alcohol level.
- Untreated Sleep Apneics are at least 6 times more likely to cause an accident.
- 30% of High Severity Crashes may be Attributed to Sleep Apnea alone.
Diagnosing and treating Sleep Apnea is essential to your health and any operation where safety is a concern.
