睡眠麻痹是在睡眠开始或醒来时的瘫痪期，通常伴有可怕的幻觉。我们报告了一例32岁的健康男性，有轻度位置阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停和睡眠麻痹的病史。使用睡眠位置训练器成功治疗了位置睡眠呼吸暂停。值得注意的是,自从使用睡眠姿势训练器以来，他不再经历睡眠瘫痪发作。这个案例强调了治疗睡眠麻痹的一种可能的优雅的非侵入性长期解决方案。

Sleep paralysis is a period of paralysis at either sleep onset or upon awakening and is often accompanied by terrifying hallucinations. We report a
case of a 32-year-old healthy men with a history of mild positional obstructive sleep apnea and sleep paralysis. The positional sleep apnea was successfully treated with the Sleep Position Trainer. Remarkably, he did no longer experience episodes of sleep paralysis since using the Sleep Position Trainer. This
case highlights a possible elegant noninvasive long-term solution for the treatment of sleep paralysis.
