Eructation can be commonly seen in patients with Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). It is also seen in functional behavioral disorder which is commonly treated with behavioral and speech therapy. In the setting of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA); Aerophagia (swallowing air) can be encountered after initiation of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy and can cause eructation, increased bloating and flatus. We present a rare case of persistent nocturnal eructation which resolved after the diagnosis and treatment of OSA with CPAP therapy.

Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a spectrum of diseases ranging from primary snoring (PS), upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS), to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA constitutes the more severe end of the spectrum, while PS is the least severe and consists of nightly snoring without apnea, hypoxemia, or hypoventilation. Although PS does not characteristically demonstrate gas exchange abnormalities on polysomnography and is usually considered a more benign condition, it still may be associated with significant neurocognitive and behavioral issues, such as hyperactivity, inattentive behavior, aggression and poor school performance [1-4]. Emerging evidence suggests that children with PS may have increased sleep disruption, movement, and sleep fragmentation [5-8].

With the growing appreciation that sleeping habits interact with health and aging, it is now imperative to increase our understanding of exactly how sleep and age interact, influence one another, and contribute to a person's overall health and wellness.
