4 Reasons Why People Lose Their Life While Sleeping, Don’t Ignore
It is clear that getting adequate sleep is important for a healthy life. however, sometimes sleeping can also be dangerous. There are actually a number of things that can go wrong when you shut your eyes and slip into unconsciousness-and for some people the danger is real enough that they never wake up again. According to a Greek proverb, d.e.a.t.h.s nd sleep are brothers.
Do you know that even while you sleep your brain is still active carrying out activities like dreams and other body activities.
Meanwhile, here are the reasons why people d.i.e while sleeping.
1. Sudden cardiac arrest
According science sudden cardiac arrest can occur when the sinoatrial node, the nodes in the heart that essentially act as your body’s natural peacemaker is impaired.
In other words, the condition happens when the heart’s electrical circuitry fails, and it might be fatal within the first two minutes.
How does it cause d.e.a.t.h? It essentially lowers brain blood flow. Not only does it happen while sleeping, but half of the time there are no signs prior to cardiac arrest.
2. Poisoning by carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide, or CO, is a colorless and odorless gas that can be fatal if inhaled in large amounts.
CO is present in gases from operating cars, generators, gas ranges, furnaces, and fireplaces, among other things.
How does it cause d.e.a.t.h? Basically, if small of it build up in a small room, breathing it in can becomes toxic. The victim may experience symptoms like headache, dizziness, weakness. If you get caught up in your sleep it may turn out fatal.
3. Apnea during sleep
Central sleep apnea is basically a disorder that causes the sufferer’s breathing to stop and start repeatedly while they are unconscious. This simply happens when the brain doesn’t send the proper signal to the muscles that controls breathing mechanism during sleep and it is believed to originate from a problem in the brain stem.
How does it cause d.e.a.t.h? When you have apnea, your oxygen level drops below what is essential for survival. This causes oxygen deprivation, which leads to asphyxia.
4. Unexplained d.e.a.t.h at night
This is clearly one of the list’s “mystery” types.
The first cases of unexplained noctortnal d.e.a.t.h in America and Canada were documented in 1977 (SUNDS). Since then, it has developed a frightening reputation.
The exact reason of mortality among the diseased does is still unknown. It essentially causes young, healthy people to d.i.e in their sleep for no apparent reason.
How does it cause d.e.a.t.h? Scientists are still unsure, but it appears to happen frequently.
5. Cerebral Aneurysm
This is also very common. A cerebral Aneurysm also known as brain aneurysm, is just a weak spot in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain. It resembles a thin ballon that fills with blood. Over time, as the blood pumps through the artery, it continues to weaken and swell- and if the pressure is too much it may burst.
How does it cause d.e.a.t.h? When aneurysm rupture the blood only last for few seconds. But the blood cause damage to surrounding brain cells, and can increase the pressure inside the skull. If the pressure becomes too much the condition may turn out fatal.
