Abstract:

Objective To explore the significance of nasal cavity expansion in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Methods Based on the theory of nasal cavity ventilation expansion techniques, fifty OSAHS patients with nasal structural abnormalities underwent the nasal cavity ventilation expansion surgery. Results Nasal blockage and lethargy were effectively reduced and the lowest oxygen saturation increased after the surgery. However, AHI had a marginally significant difference from that before the operation, it was still high and not dropped to the normal level. Conclusion We can confirm the efficacy of the nasal cavity ventilation expansion techniques in the treatment of OSAHS.

Key words: Ventilation expansion; Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome; Nasal cavity
