  On many days, new CPAP people begin their night with an excellent effort by utilizing their CPAP. Sometimes, however, compliance isn't continued throughout the night. The shortcoming to use CPAP for the whole night is a great injustice to your quality of life. The higher part of REM sleep, probably the most restful part of sleep, is toward the end of the night time between your hours of 3 to 4 am. REM sleep is often referred to as "Dream Sleep" and is essential to getting a restful night's sleep. sleep apnea
  
  There are 5 stages of sleep ending with stage 5 and starting with stage 1. Stage 1 lasts about 1-7 minutes at the onset of sleep. It is a transitional phase between wakefulness and sleep. Phase 2 uses up the biggest portion of your Sleep time. While it's a bit deeper than stage 1, it is still regarded as being a light shallow stage of sleep. Stages 3 and 4 are deeper slow wave sleep. Stage 3 is more of a transitional period to 4 some where between 2 and 4. REM sleep (Rapid Eye Movement) or Desire Sleep is Stage 5 Sleep. In this phase, muscles are completely relaxed and slack. The most significant Obstructive Sleep Apnea events occur while on your straight back and in REM sleep due to the reduction in muscle tone. While muscle tone is still within stage 1-4, it's disappeared during stage 5 and so it no further keeps the airway open.

  The very first REM appears about 90 minutes once you get to sleep. Since the night advances then a cycle starts again straight back to level 2. Phase 3 and 4 get faster and your REM gets longer. At 5 am your REM is at its peak lasting up to 1 hour long. By this time around of the night, your point 4 and 3 are very nearly non-existent. A normal sleep pattern has between 4 and 5 REM cycles. The night's sleep period often goes like this, Stage 12-3-4 -REM then back to stage 2 -3-4 REM then back again to 2 repeat 4 to 5 times with the past one have very little to No stage 3 and 4 in it and the REM time getting longer and longer as the Deep sleep stage 3 and 4 get shorter. What sleep apnea does is always to disrupt the natural sleep pattern. The further the Sleep period, the more OSA your planning to have. When you obstructed and need air, you have to come out-of these further stages. Once back again to level 1- 2 you can now have a breath. That parts your Deep sleep and REM by not letting you any deep sleep, or almost no real good sleep and you will never feel refreshed. An OSA person will get a lot of stage 2 light sleep and almost no Deep (Slow Wave) or REM sleep. So while you say "how can I maybe not be sleeping well, I rest 9-10 hours a rest and night throughout the day!" .. The clear answer is youre finding a lot of sleep however not the grade of sleep that enables you to feel rested.
