## Abstract
Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS) is a symptom that arises anytime from a tendency to drowsiness or to fall asleep at the time of intensity and expectation to stay awake. The most common cause associated with EDS is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a sleep disorder characterized by partial or complete obstruction of the airways that causes apnea and hypopnea during sleep. The prevalence of OSA associated with a decrease in sleep quality is approximately 3–7% in adult men and 2–5% in adult women in the general population. This case presents a 39-year-old man complains of excessive sleepiness during the day for10 years with a duration of 10–15 min, often waking up at night and feeling tired all day. Overnight polysomnography showed Respiratory Disturbance Index 21.6. The patient received 6 cmH2O of Continues Positive Airways Pressure (CPAP) therapy every night during sleep and modafinil 100 mg once a day.
