Is Ankyloglossia Correlated With Pediatric Sleep Disordered Breathing? A Systematic Review
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.An increasing breadth of conditions and symptoms are being ascribed to ankyloglossia. As diagnosis of ankyloglossia and frequency of frenotomy exponential increase, it is important to have an understanding of the associated evidence. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for ankyloglossia's association with sleep disordered breathing in ...

Effects of the CPAP Treatment on the NON-REM Sleep Microstructures in Patients with Severe Apnea-Hypoapnea Syndrome [PDF]
, 2014 Sleep quality is affected in patients with sleep apnea- hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) with nocturnal and diurnal consequences. Most of these patients who are treated with positive airway pressure (CPAP) return to normal sleep patterns.

Apnea-hypopnea index use among intensive care patients: a case series [PDF]
Journal of Medical Case Reports, 2014 ApneaLink™ (RESMED-Munich, Germany) is a simple and inexpensive device that determines the apnea-hypopnea index. The sensitivity and specificity of the apnea-hypopnea index are 100 and 87.5%, respectively. Our hypothesis can be used to create a treatment plan using the apnea-hypopnea index for intensive care unit patients.This treatment plan has been ...
