The Bidirectional Relationship Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Metabolic Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, effecting 17% of the total population and 40–70% of the obese population (1, 2). Multiple studies have identified OSA as a critical risk factor for the development of obesity, diabetes, and ...

Homozygous Achondroplasia With Long‐Term Survival: Growth Patterns, Medical Interventions, and Practice Implications

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Homozygous achondroplasia is widely considered perinatal lethal by the medical community. In this case series, we report two children from a single family with longer‐term survival. One child lived for 17 months and the other was 60 months at the time of publication.

A comparative study of the effect of nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation and nasal continuous positive airway pressure on the regional brain tissue oximetry in premature newborns weighing <1500 g

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2017
Background: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) provides the capability of monitoring oxygenation levels in cerebral microscopic vessels, enabling the operator to observe the spontaneous changes in the levels of hemoglobin concentration in tissue and ...

Use of nasal continuous positive airway pressure during neonatal transfers [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2005
Objective: To review all cases in which nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) was used as a means of respiratory support during land based ambulance transfers by a regional neonatal transport service. Design: Retrospective study based on review of transport records.

Healthcare Resource Utilization and Cost After Temperature‐Controlled Radiofrequency Treatment of Nasal Airway Obstruction: A Real‐World Longitudinal Claims Analysis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasal airway obstruction (NAO) is prevalent with substantial health and quality of life burdens. Nasal valve collapse (NVC) is one structural cause of NAO. Temperature‐controlled radiofrequency (TCRF) nasal valve remodeling offers an alternative to invasive surgery.

Prevention of nasal trauma due to CPAP in a preterm newborn: case report [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The administration of continuous positive airway pressure through nasal CPAP has been used in the treatment of neonatal respiratory diseases as a means of providing ventilatory support to preterm infants, producing adequate gas exchange, decreasing the ...

Severe, Non‐apneic Respiratory Dysfunction and Hypoxia following Generalized Convulsive Seizures

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating consequence of some generalized convulsive seizures (GCS). Recent work has focused on seizure related apnea as a biomarker of SUDEP risk, frequently without characterizing the adequacy of non‐apneic ventilation or identifying other dysfunctional breathing patterns.

Comparison of the effect of surfactant administration during nasal continuous positive airway pressure with that of nasal continuous positive airway pressure alone on respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesZdorovʹe Rebenka
Background. The American Academy of Pediatrics states that prophylactic surfactant is no longer advised when continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is frequently used to stabilize preterm newborns and where the rate of prenatal corticosteroid is high.

Long-term outcome of preterm infants treated with nasal continuous positive airway pressure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This study's aim was to assess neurodevelopmental and growth outcome until the age of 4 years of premature infants placed on early nCPAP, in the setting of the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and follow-up program of the Division of Neonatology of ...
