Sleep apnea in craniofacial surgery was investigated. Between January 1999 and December 2003, 18 patients were measured at an at least 6-month interval before and after surgery. Eight patients underwent palatoplasty for cleft palate, and the other 10 patients underwent orthognathic surgery, syndromic craniosynostosis, and postpharyngeal flap surgery. All patients included in the study demonstra...
Background-Aim. Although sleep disturbance is a common complaint among patients of all ages, research suggests that older adults are particularly vulnerable. The aim of this retrospective study was to elucidate the influence of age on clinical characteristics and polysomnographic findings of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) between elderly and younger male patients in a Greek population....
INTRODUCTION The obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is the most common sleep disorder. It covers a multitude of symptoms associated with apnea. Next to polysomnography, otorhinolaryngological clinical examination plays an important role in establishing the diagnosis, in evaluating any oropharyngeal and hypopharyngeal modification. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this research, we intend to demonstrate ...
A 14-year old girl with Rett syndrome was studied. The patient had roncopathy, sleepiness, decreased activity and performance, corrected kyphoscoliosis, obesity, retrognathia, ojival palate and dental malocclusion. Nocturnal polysomnography (PSG) showed a moderate obstructive and apparently central sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) with associated hypoventilation, corrected by continuous pos...
Introduction: The Berlin questionnaire (BQ) is a common tool to screen for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in the general population, but its application in the clinical sleep setting is still challenging. The aim of this study was to determine the specificity and sensitivity of the BQ compared to the apnea-hypopnea index obtained from polysomnography recordings obtained from ...
INTRODUCTION The use of handheld devices that assess peripheral arterial tonometry has emerged as an auxiliary method for assessment and diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the accuracy of peripheral arterial tonometry in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea. METHODS Contemporary cohort cross-sectional study. Thirty patients with suspected obstructive sl...
OBJECTIVE To identify the spectrum of respiratory disturbances during sleep in patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) and to examine the response of hypercapnia to treatment of the specific ventilatory sleep disturbances. DESIGNS AND METHODS Twenty-three patients with chronic awake hypercapnia (mean [+/- SD] PaCO(2), 55 +/- 6 mm Hg) and a respiratory sleep disorder were retrospe...
Patients with Down syndrome (DS) are at risk for both obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA); however, it is unclear how these components evolve as patients age and whether patients are also at risk for hypoventilation. A retrospective review of 144 diagnostic polysomnograms (PSG) in a tertiary care facility over 10 years was conducted. Descriptive data and exploratory corr...
BACKGROUND Lack of adherence with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is the major cause of treatment failure in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. We evaluated the effectiveness of our intensive educational program on adherence in the short term and the long term. METHODS THE EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM CONSISTED OF: intensive training, whereby each patient performed indi...
Objective: This research aimed to explore the curative effect of noninvasive ventilation in the treatment of children Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS). Methods: From Nov 2015-2016, 70 children OSAS patients in Binzhou People’s Hospital were selected as the study subjects and were randomly divided into surgery group (n=35) and ventilation group (n=35). Patients in the surgery group were t...
