Utility of Preoperative Cardiac Workup for Children With Very Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea
In this retrospective study, we aimed to examine the prevalence and utility of obtaining a preoperative cardiac workup in children with very severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) prior to adenotonsillectomy. Of 144 patients with very severe OSA, 38 patients (26.4%) underwent a preoperative cardiac workup, and three of those 38 had abnormal findings ...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and patient satisfaction of a novel laser technology that employs simultaneous emission of Alexandrite (755 nm) and Nd:YAG (1064 nm) wavelengths for permanent hair removal, as compared with standard of care treatment using a single wavelength (either Alexandrite or Nd:Yag).
