CFD simulations of turbulent flow in the human upper airways [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 In this paper, investigations are conducted using Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models to investigate the importance of turbulence modelling for nasal inspiration at a constant flow rate of 250 ml/s. Four different, standard turbulence models are tested in a model geometry based on pre-operative CT images of a selected obstructive ...

The impact of intranasal fluticasone on patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a prospective study
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2021 Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea is the most common type of sleep apnea, which is caused by complete or partial obstructions of the upper airway. Nasal obstruction is also considered as one of the independent risk factors of obstructive sleep apnea.

Semi-Automated Nasal PAP Mask Sizing using Facial Photographs [PDF]
, 2017 We present a semi-automated system for sizing nasal Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) masks based upon a neural network model that was trained with facial photographs of both PAP mask users and non-users. It demonstrated an accuracy of 72% in correctly sizing a mask and 96% accuracy sizing to within 1 mask size group.
