The
White House said Wednesday that President Joe Biden, 80, has started
using a CPAP machine to treat his sleep apnea – after he was spotted
with visible indentations on his face.
The
mask lines were apparent as the president spoke with reporters on the
South Lawn Wednesday morning before a day trip to Chicago.
白宫周三表示，80岁的乔·拜登总统在被发现脸上有明显的凹痕后，已经开始使用CPAP机器治疗他的睡眠呼吸暂停。
周三上午，总统在前往芝加哥一日游之前，在南草坪与记者交谈时，口罩线很明显。
Depending on the criteria used, 15-30% of US males suffer from sleep apnoea. CPAP ( Continous Positive Airway Pressure) reduces hypoxic episodes and risk of brain damage, as well as improving cognition and wakefulness. I would be surprised if there are not many members of the US legislature, using this supportive measure.
根据使用的标准，15-30%的美国男性患有睡眠呼吸暂停。持续气道正压（CPAP）可减少缺氧发作和脑损伤风险，并改善认知能力和清醒度。
呼吸暂停问题，血氧饱和度下降等问题，通过这个呼吸机都可以解决。广大的中国同胞们，有这种问题的可以试试，也许能减少老年痴呆问题。 研究人员发现患有睡眠呼吸障碍（SDB）的个体更容易发生认知障碍和阿尔兹海默症。拜登时不时的就会出现点老年痴呆的症状，也许和他这个呼吸问题相关。
