Clinical outcomes of bubble continuous positive airway pressure compared to indigenous continuous positive airway pressure in preterm neonates with respiratory distress

Asian Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Respiratory distress is a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, especially in preterm infants. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a widely used non-invasive respiratory support.

Epiglottis Collapse in Individuals With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder characterized by repeated upper airway collapse during sleep. The epiglottis, often overlooked in conventional assessments, has emerged as a site of significant obstruction in OSA.

Average volume-assured pressure support for patients with obstructive sleep apnea with failed CPAP titration [PDF]

Sleep Science
Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disease, often treated using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. In many cases, patients fail a CPAP titration study due to inadequate control of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI, events ...

Phenotype-based and Self-learning Inter-individual Sleep Apnea Screening with a Level IV Monitoring System [PDF]

, 2018
Purpose: We propose a phenotype-based artificial intelligence system that can self-learn and is accurate for screening purposes, and test it on a Level IV monitoring system. Methods: Based on the physiological knowledge, we hypothesize that the phenotype

Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Surgical Treatment of Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea (2024)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common chronic disorder characterized by abnormal breathing during sleeping. OSA can damage various organs throughout the body and is burdensome, both socially and economically. Moreover, as OSA has been increasingly studied in recent years, new evidence‐based guidelines for its diagnosis and surgical ...

Personalized treatment of obesity complicated with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome

Ожирение и метаболизм, 2014
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity are mutually burdening clinical conditions. Weight loss is quite effective for the control of breathing disorders during sleep, but the impact of OSA treatment on the dynamics of body weight in obese patients ...

Principles of CPAP and auto-adjusting CPAP devices

Breathe, 2008
Educational aimsTo explain that the nocturnal events experienced by patients with OSAHS are caused by an abnormal increase in the collapsibility of the upper airway.To show that CPAP is an effective mechanical treatment for preventing upper airway obstruction and, therefore, normalising sleep in OSAHS patients.To outline the working principles of CPAP ...

Predicting Respiratory Complications for Day Case Paediatric Adenotonsillectomy

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To assess the effectiveness of a pre‐operative triaging model for paediatric adenotonsillectomy in identifying risk of early post‐operative respiratory complications, in order to propose an evidence‐based triaging model for day‐case paediatric adenotonsillectomy.
