Randomised trial of nasal surgery for fixed nasal obstruction in obstructive sleep apnoea.
Although nasal surgery has limited efficacy in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) treatment, some patients experience improvement. The present study tested the hypothesis that post-surgery improvement is associated with increased nasal breathing epochs. A total of 49 OSA patients (mean apnoea/hypopnoea index (AHI) 30.1+/-16.3 events x h(-1)) with symptomatic fixed nasal obstruction due to deviated ...
متن کاملEvaluation of the subjective efficacy of nasal surgery.
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate subjective symptom changes in obstructive sleep apnoea hypopnea syndrome patients following nasal surgery, and to explore treatment efficacy in improving patient quality of life. METHODS Patients with nasal blockage accompanied by habitual snoring were stratified into four groups. Their subjective symptoms were evaluated before and after nasal surgery. ...
متن کاملThe role of the nose in the pathogenesis of obstructive sleep apnoea and snoring.
Data from observational studies suggest that nasal obstruction contributes to the pathogenesis of snoring and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). To define more accurately the relationship between snoring, OSA and nasal obstruction, the current authors have summarised the literature on epidemiological and physiological studies, and performed a systematic review of randomised controlled trials in wh...
متن کاملSurgical correction of nasal obstruction in the treatment of mild sleep apnoea: importance of cephalometry in predicting outcome.
BACKGROUND A study was undertaken to determine if cephalometric radiographs could identify those who will benefit from nasal surgery in patients with a sleep apnoea hypopnoea syndrome (SAHS) and chronic nasal obstruction. METHODS Fourteen patients with SAHS were enrolled. Those with normal posterior airway space and mandibular plane to hyoid bone distances on preoperative cephalometric radiog...
متن کاملNasal CPAP and weight loss in hypertensive patients with obstructive sleep apnoea.
BACKGROUND The high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in patients with systemic hypertension and of hypertension in patients with OSA suggests a causal link between the two disorders. This study was carried out to determine whether nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and weight loss affect daytime hypertension in OSA. METHODS Sixty hypertensive patients with OSA took p...
