Nasal resistance and sleep apnea [PDF]
The Laryngoscope, 1987 AbstractThis study explores the role of the nose in obstructive sleep apnea. If the nose acts as a Starling resistor, elevated nasal resistance may result in negative pharyngeal pressure that is of greater magnitude than the situation with normal nasal resistance. Large negative pharyngeal pressures could cause obstructive apnea.
