Design and Development of Novel Airway Device for Transoral Respiratory Monitoring During Sedation
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This article describes iterative design factors and results of clinical testing for a novel medical device that promotes transoral respiratory gas exchange for patients during sedation. A minimally viable prototype was 3D printed from thermoplastic polyurethane and demonstrated high levels of oral retention, gas exchange, and satisfaction among ...

Maxillomandibular Advancement Outcomes in Obstructive Sleep Apnea by Age and Gender
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This systematic review and meta‐analysis of 36 studies (608 patients) found that maxillomandibular advancement significantly improves polysomnographic, cephalometric, and subjective measures of obstructive sleep apnea across both sexes and throughout the lifespan. Odds of surgical cure decline roughly 3% per year of age.

Effect of Preferred Language on Rate of Postoperative Tonsillectomy Revisit
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Out of 1143 patients who underwent tonsillectomy, 168 (14.7%) revisited an emergency department or urgent care within 30 days of surgery. Older patients, non‐English‐speaking patients, and patients with non‐English‐speaking parents were more likely to revisit. Time to revisit did not differ by language or indication for revisit.

Intraoperative Bradycardia: Evaluating Vasovagal Events in Adult Suspension Microlaryngeal Surgery
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.This retrospective single‐surgeon cohort study of 190 adults undergoing suspension microlaryngoscopy found that 8.9% (17/190) developed significant intraoperative bradycardia consistent with a vasovagal response (VVR). No demographic, comorbidity, or procedural factors were significantly associated with VVR, though most affected patients required ...
