Apert Syndrome with Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Case Report
Apert syndrome is a rare kind of craniosynostosis which is identified with fusion of cranial sutures during prematurity period and causes physical and intellectual disorders in younger ages. These patients may show symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea due to abnormal craniofacial shape. This article introduces a patient with Apert syndrome, with apnea symptoms, cyanosis, snoring, restlessness, n...
متن کاملThe influence of episodic hypoxia on upper airway collapsibility in subjects with obstructive sleep apnea.
We have previously shown that in subjects with obstructive sleep apnea, repetitive hypoxia is associated with long-term facilitation as manifested by decreased upper airway resistance (Rua). Our objective was to study the influence of long-term facilitation on upper airway collapsibility as measured by the critical closing pressure (Pcrit) model and to determine whether changes in Rua correlate...

متن کاملPediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common and serious cause of metabolic, cardiovascular, and neurocognitive morbidity in children. Children with OSAS have increased upper airway resistance during sleep due to a combination of soft tissue hypertrophy, craniofacial dysmorphology, neuromuscular weakness, or obesity. Consequently, children with OSAS encounter a combination of oxidative s...
متن کاملoutcomes of upper airway surgery in obstructive sleep apnea
background and objective: obstructive sleep apnea (osa) is defined as a sleep disordered breathing due to partial or complete obstruction of upper airways. this study aimed to investigate treatment outcomes and clinical complications among patients with osa who underwent upper airway surgery in clinical settings. materials and methods: all patients undergone upper airway surgery for osa were ca...
