Objective The localization of upper airway obstruction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may optimize treatment. Nasoendoscopy during propofol sedation allows such an evaluation, but the effect this drug on respiratory patterns and muscle relaxation is unknown. objective present study was to determine through polysomnography whether would change parameters. Study Design Prospective subjects submitted under propofol. Setting Tertiary referral center. Subjects Methods Fifteen...
Objectives/Hypothesis The treatment for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) depends on correct localization of upper airway obstruction, exception made continuous positive pressure (CPAP). Drug‐induced endoscopy (DISE) with propofol allows this evaluation, but the drug effects parameters are not yet well established. Our objective was to study by polysomnography (PSG) whether would change means a prospective cross‐sectional clinical in tertiary hospital. Study Design Thirty non‐obese...
Orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) has emerged as an alternative and adjunct for the treatment of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in adults children. While OMT efficacy been demonstrated, morphofunctional mechanisms triggered by each exercise remain poorly elucidated. This study aimed to characterise upper airway (UA) changes associated with established oropharyngeal exercises utilised treat SDB nasofibrolaryngoscopy (NFL). Thirteen were selected analysed based on relevant literature....
Only a few studies have compared the outcomes of patients kept awake during endoscopic examination and subjects submitted to drug-induced sleep endoscopy.This study aimed compare findings outpatient endoscopy with sedation by propofol based on Fujita Classification.This cross-sectional cohort enrolled 34 patients. The underwent ENT examination, nasal Müller's maneuver, propofol. Classification was used two modes examination. examinations were correlated patient clinical data such as BMI,...
Acquiring a better comprehension of obstructive sleep apnea physiopathology can contribute to improving patient selection for surgical treatments. We hypothesize that maxillary transverse deficiency restricts the space available tongue, leading upper airway obstruction during sleep. Our primary hypothesis was increases prevalence tongue collapse drug-induced endoscopy (DISE). The secondary will also increase circumferential at velopharynx. exploratory is associated with increased severity....
ABSTRACT Objectives: To organize an assessment instrument with questionnaires and myofunctional orofacial/oropharyngeal for OSA patients correlate it the upper airway obstructive site detected during drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). Material Methods: 29 aged 22-65 years indication to undergo DISE evaluate alternative treatment PAP signed consent form. Patients over 65 old maxillofacial deficiency BMI>30 were excluded. The subjects answered Pittsburgh, Berlin (snore), Epworth...
Abstract — The inhibitory role of NO on sympathetic-induced contraction resistance vessels spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) has not been defined. Accordingly, we investigated the effect endothelial removal or synthase inhibition vasoconstrictor responses to sympathetic stimulation phenylephrine in perfused mesenteric beds isolated from normotensive (NR) and SHR. Electrical (10 64 Hz) perivascular nerves elicited a frequency-dependent increase perfusion pressure that was greater...
Epistaxis is the main otorhinolaryngology emergency and, in severe cases, it can lead to hemodynamic instability and be life threatening.To evaluate factors involved epistaxis resistant nasal packing that needed surgical treatment, as well post-surgical results.Retrospective study from January 2002 August 2007. 40 consecutive patients underwent treatment for refractory were analyzed. Predisposing factors, procedures performed, need of blood transfusion, recurrence...

AIM: To evaluate factors involved epistaxis resistant nasal packing that needed surgical treatment, as well post-surgical results. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective study from January 2002 August 2007. 40 consecutive patients underwent treatment for refractory were analyzed. Predisposing factors, procedures performed, need of blood transfusion,...
Obstructive Sleep Apnea is characterized by recurrent episodes of partial or complete collapse the pharynx, followed decreased oxyhemoglobin saturation and frequent arousals. It regarded as a public health issue with important night day symptoms that impact life quality. Its effects are associated areas competence Speech Language Pathologists. To establish efficient diagnosis treatment methods, professionals must know pathogenesis upper airway obstruction during sleep. This study seeks to...
Introduction: The Pott Puffy tumor is a rare comorbidity, characterized by frontal osteomyelitis, causing erosion of the anterior wall sinus and subperiosteal abscess. It usually complication trauma or ethmoid sinusitis. main etiological agent found Staphylococcus aureus. vast majority cases occur in children adolescents. With advent antibiotic therapy, it was significant reduction frequency infectious processes paranasal sinuses their complications.
