Sleep Apnea

This Medical Minute is brought to you as a public service by KCRG-TV9 and University of Iowa Health Care.


Gordon Grote is one of millions of Americans with sleep apnea.

It was so advanced, he would actually stop breathing.

Specialists in the Sleep Disorders Center at University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics equipped Gordon with a special mask that helps him breathe normally while sleeping.

Gordon sleeps better and safer now.
