Lateral pharyngeal fat pad pressure during breathing in anesthetized pigs.
It has been hypothesized that the pressure in tissues surrounding the upper airway is one of the determinants of the size and shape of the upper airway. To our knowledge, this pressure has not been measured. The purpose of this study was to test whether the pressure in a tissue lateral to the upper airway, the lateral pharyngeal fat pad pressure (Pfp), differs from atmospheric and pharyngeal pr...
متن کاملPharyngeal critical pressure in children with mild sleep-disordered breathing.
There is evidence that narrowing or collapse of the pharynx can contribute to obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in adults and children. However, studies in children have focused on those with relatively severe SDB who generally were recruited from sleep clinics. It is unclear whether children with mild SDB who primarily have hypopneas, and not frank apnea, also have more collapsible ...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic changes during pressure breathing.
It was recognized many years ago that the form of the electrocardiogram could be modified by a voluntary increase of breathing pressure, as during the Valsalva manceuvre (Kahn, 1909). During the early part of the second world war further studies were undertaken by German workers (Zettel and Fink, 1939; Muller, 1941), and it was found that it was altered even by the small fluctuations of breathi...
متن کاملThe trochanteric fat pad
Technological developments based on the use of autologous white adipose tissue (WAT) attracted attention to minor fat depots as possible sources of adipose tissue. In plastic surgery, the trochanteric fatty pad is one of the most used WAT depots for its location and organoleptic characteristics that make it particularly suitable for reconstructive procedures. Despite its wide use in clinic, the...
متن کاملCorrection of Sunken Upper Eyelids by Anchoring the Central Fat Pad to the Medial Fat Pad during Upper Blepharoplasty
BACKGROUND Many methods have been proposed for the correction of sunken upper eyelids. These methods include surgical treatments, such as micro-fat, dermofat, or fascia-fat grafts, or the use of alloplastic materials. Here, we present our experience of sunken upper eyelid correction involving the simple addition of anchoring the central fat pad to the medial fat pad during upper blepharoplasty....
