Impact of Mask Type on Pharyngeal Opening Pressures During Drug‐Induced Sleep Endoscopy

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Assessment of the impact of mask type on pharyngeal opening pressures during drug‐induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is currently lacking. Our study demonstrates that pharyngeal opening pressures at the velum, oropharynx, and tongue base are significantly reduced using nasal vs. full‐face mask techniques.
