[Mandibular advancement devices in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea].
UNLABELLED Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects approximately 450,000 people in Poland. Use of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) devices and laryngeal surgery are widely accepted OSA treatment methods. In 1995 ASDA approved oral devices for treatment of OSA patients. The aim of the study was to determine efficiency of mandibular advancement devices (MAD) in OSA therapy. MATER...
متن کاملIncrease in upper airway volume in patients with obstructive sleep apnea using a mandibular advancement device
Introduction: Diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) are crucial because this disorder can cause systemic changes. The effectiveness of OSAS treatment with intraoral devices has been demonstrated through cephalometric studies. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of a mandibular advancement device (Twin Block, TB) ...
متن کاملAirway observations during upper endoscopy predicting obstructive sleep apnea
BACKGROUND This pilot study examined airway characteristics during upper endoscopy to determine who is at high risk for obstructive sleep apnea. METHODS Patients undergoing routine upper endoscopy were divided into 2 groups according to the Berlin Questionnaire (high and low risk for sleep disordered breathing). Patients underwent routine upper endoscopy using propofol sedation. The airway wa...
متن کاملAn investigation of upper airway changes associated with mandibular advancement device using sleep videofluoroscopy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
OBJECTIVE To quantitatively evaluate the effects of the mandibular advancement device (MAD) on changes in the upper respiratory tract during sleep using sleep videofluoroscopy (SVF) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING Academic tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Seventy-six patients (68 men and 8 women) who were treated with the MAD for OS...
متن کاملMaxillary, mandibular, and chin advancement: treatment planning based on airway anatomy in obstructive sleep apnea.
Surgical correction of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome involves understanding a number of parameters, of which the 3-dimensional airway anatomy is important. Visualization of the upper airway based on cone beam computed tomography scans and automated computer analysis is an aid in understanding normal and abnormal airway conditions and their response to surgery. The goal of surgical trea...
