Neural Classification of Snoring Sounds for the Detection of Oral Breathing during Snoring
Healthy people are generally breathing through nose during sleep, but oral breathing will be given rise to if the nasal cavity is gradually being closed. Nasal closure or even nasal congestion leads to open mouth during snoring, which causes the tongue base collapse, the origin of OSAS. Thus, if a simple home device with only a microphone can automatically monitor our snores at bedside and dete...
متن کاملSnoring source identification and snoring noise prediction.
This paper investigates the snoring mechanism of humans by applying the concept of structural intensity to a three-dimensional (3D) finite element model of a human head, which includes: the upper part of the head, neck, soft palate, hard palate, tongue, nasal cavity and the surrounding walls of the pharynx. Results show that for 20, 40 and 60Hz pressure loads, tissue vibration is mainly in the ...
متن کاملSigns of Upper Airway Collapsibility in Snoring Sounds
We have shown that snoring fundamental frequency (F0) contours have an oscillating pattern in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) as compared to the relatively smoother pattern in simple snorers. This points to the underlying upper airway instability and collapsibility in OSA. The 2 patterns were classified by 75% accuracy.
متن کاملThe acoustics of snoring.
Snoring is a prevalent disorder affecting 20-40% of the general population. The mechanism of snoring is vibration of anatomical structures in the pharyngeal airway. Flutter of the soft palate accounts for the harsh aspect of the snoring sound. Natural or drug-induced sleep is required for its appearance. Snoring is subject to many influences such as body position, sleep stage, route of breathin...
متن کاملTreatment of Snoring
For proper treatment of snoring, it is important to perform inquiry, inspect the nasal cavity, pharynx and larynx, and hear the snoring sound by using a tape recorder. If sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) is suspected, overnight monitoring is performed. Dynamic MRI during sleep and upper airway endoscopy are very useful in the determination of sites responsible for snoring and SAS for the selection of...
