Introduction: Hypertrophied tonsils and adenoids may cause upper airway obstruction and cardio-pulmonary complications due to pulmonary arterial hypertension. The aim of this study was to determine the correlation between mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) and selected adenotonsilar hypertrophy indexes. Materials and Methods: Thirty two patients with upper-airway obstruction resulting ...
background: nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nippv) is a non-invasive ventilatory mode, which delivers mechanical ventilation via nasal tubes or prongs. the present study was conducted to compare the efficacy of nippv and nasal continuous positive airway pressure ventilation (ncpap) in reducing the need for intubation in preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome (rds)....
OBJECTIVE Previously, we proposed long-range optical coherence tomography (LR-OCT) to be an effective method for the quantitative evaluation of the nasal valve geometry. Here, the objective was to quantify the reduction in the internal nasal valve angle and cross-sectional area that results in subjective nasal airway obstruction and to evaluate the dynamic behavior of the valve during respirati...
BACKGROUND Studies comparing different categories of nasal measures have reported inconsistent results. We sought to compare validated measures of the nasal airway: anatomic (acoustic rhinometry), physiological (nasal peak inspiratory flow), and subjective experience (Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation Scale and a visual analog scale [VAS]). METHODS This prospective cross-sectional study of...
Septoplasty is a commonly performed surgical procedure aimed at relieving nasal airway obstruction. The advent of the nasal endoscopes facilitates accurate identification of the pathology. Further limited elevation of the flap, minimal resection and realignment are possible. The present study was conducted for comparison between septoplasty done by the conventional technique and the endoscopic ...
A Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a chronic, progressive, and potentially life-threatening disorder that can be effectively treated with surgery. It is also a condition that orthodontists see in their offices every day; thus, they are ideally suited to diagnose and treat it. OSA is related to an anatomic obstruction of the upper airway; surgical correction of the obstruction is effective and d...
Vertical mandibular position is considered to have an effect on the patency of the upper airway, because mouth opening is associated with a backward and downward displacement of the mandible and tongue. This study was conducted to investigate the nature of mandibular displacement at rest and to determine whether or not different respiration modes and body postures influence the mandibular posit...
Background: Primary schwannoma of trachea and bronchus is very rare and can cause the same signs and symptoms as asthma, including airway-obstruction. Case Report: We introduce a 17 years-old girl with left bronchus schwannoma who was under treatment with the primary diagnosis of asthma and allergy. Bronchoscope intervention showed a pedicular tumor in left bronchus which protruded from the...
Spirometry and flow - volume loop show the abnormal pattern of pulmonary dysfunction and the site of the obstruction of upper and peripheral airways. For determinig the shape of flow - volume loop in obstruction of carina and bronchus we examined 19 patients with large airway obstruction documented with fiberoptic bronchoscopy via pulmonary function testing and flow volume loop performing. Two...
