A possible mechanism for mixed apnea in obstructive sleep apnea.
Hypopneas or pauses in respiratory effort frequently precede episodes of obstructive sleep apnea resulting in mixed apneas. We studied five subjects after chronic tracheostomy for obstructive sleep apnea. During stable non-REM (NREM) sleep, subjects breathed entirely through the tracheostomy. Tracheostomy occlusion caused experimental obstructive apnea which lasted 13.9 +/- 4.7 sec and ended wi...
متن کاملComparison between Caffeine and Theophylline Therapy for Apnea of Prematurity
Purpose: Methylxanthines are commonly used to treat apnea of prematurity. Recent studies have reported that caffeine therapy reduces the rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and improves the rate of survival in preterm infant without neuro developmental disabilities. This study was performed to compare the effects on apnea episodes, adverse effects and morbidity between the caffeine and th...

In clinical practice, oral appliances are used primarily for obstructive sleep apnea patients who do not respond to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. We hypothesized that an oral appliance is not inferior to CPAP in treating obstructive sleep apnea effectively. We randomly assigned 103 individuals to oral-appliance or CPAP therapy. Polysomnography after 8-12 weeks indicated th...
متن کاملOral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder characterized by repetitive, complete or partial closure of the upper airway during sleep, resulting in sleep fragmentation and oxygen desaturation. The disorder causes significant morbidity, particularly in terms of impairment of daytime functioning and the impact this has on quality of life. There is also evidence that links OSA to long-term ...
متن کاملOptimal Dental Therapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
DENTALCETODAY.COM • SEPTEMBER 2015 INTRODUCTION Optimal is very different than acceptable, especially if you are the patient. This case study will highlight the need for a structural assessment of the 4 points of the airway prior to treatment utilizing CBCT (i-CAT). In addition, this case report will demonstrate how successful resolution of severe apnea with an oral appliance on a patient for w...
