Evaluating Sleep Apnea: In‐Lab Versus at‐Home Recording Time and the Impact of Positional Disease

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We evaluated the minimum recording time needed for in‐lab polysomnography (PSG1) and home sleep apnea test Type 3 portable monitoring (HSAT) to accurately reflect the full‐night apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in patients with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

The Therapeutic Means of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS)

, 2018
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is one of the most common conditions that occur during sleep. OSAS involves the existence of at least 5 breathing breaks of at least 10 seconds in a sleeping hour. OSAS etiologic factors are numerous,

Patient‐Reported Outcomes of Palatopharyngeal Surgery Without Tonsillectomy: A Meta‐Analysis

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Palatopharyngeal surgery without tonsillectomy leads to clinically meaningful improvements in daytime sleepiness and snoring, but patient‐reported outcomes vary markedly by surgical technique. Suture‐based procedures, muscle relocation, cold‐steel approaches, and powered instruments show the largest and durable benefits, with no evidence of effect ...

OSAS : the magnitude of the problem

, 2015
: Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is more frequently diagnosed than in the past. Epidemiological studies have confirmed a high prevalence of the disease in middle-aged adults but also in the elderly.

Endoscopic Suture Ligation and Sclerotherapy for Pharyngolaryngeal Venous Malformation

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study evaluated suture ligation combined with sclerotherapy in 53 patients with pharyngolaryngeal venous malformations. A single procedure achieved complete resolution in 79.25% of cases, with no serious complications or need for prophylactic tracheostomy.

Risk Analysis Index Versus mFI‐5 for Predicting Outcomes After Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This retrospective database study of 2129 adults undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty compared the risk analysis index (RAI) with the modified 5‐item frailty index (mFI‐5) for predicting 30‐day postoperative outcomes and found that frailty was associated with worse morbidity, prolonged hospitalization, non‐home discharge, and mortality.

Hearing loss in mild OSAS and simple snoring patients

, 2017
Introduction Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) is characterized by recurrent episodes of prolonged partial or complete obstruction of the upper airways.

Finite Element Analysis of Upper Airway in Ansa Cervicalis Stimulation for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
We developed a subject‐specific FE model to investigate how ACS stabilizes the upper airway in OSA. Simulations demonstrate that caudal traction applied through the hyolaryngeal complex produces coordinated multilevel airway stabilization, with pronounced effects at the retropalatal and retro‐epiglottic regions under physiologic loading.

Identifying High‐Risk Children Safe for Same‐Day Discharge After Tonsillectomy

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Current guidelines recommend overnight admission for children with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity undergoing tonsillectomy, although most have uneventful postoperative courses. We aimed to identify low‐risk subgroups within this high‐risk population who may be candidates for same‐day discharge. Methods Retrospective

Osas and Associated Comorbidities - A Retrospective Study

, 2018
OSAS (obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome) is the most common type of sleep apnoea, characterised by obstruction of the upper airways during sleep, causing the absence or reduction of airflow, although there is respiratory muscular activity. It contributes
