Abstract Background and Objective: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterized by
nocturnal repetitive upper airway (UA) collapse. For sleep physicians, the recognition of UA …

Drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is a diagnostic procedure frequently employed by
sleep apnea surgeons to visualize upper airway collapse in patients with obstructive sleep …

Study Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is increasingly recognized as a complex
and heterogenous disorder. As a result, a “one-size-fits-all” management approach should …

Identifying the sites, severity, and pattern of upper airway obstruction in obstructive sleep
apnea is crucial for determining the treatment options, particularly the surgical plan …

Background: One of the main challenges of surgical treatment in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
(OSA) is identifying the correct site of upper airway obstruction in an individual patient. Drug …

Purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder that can be corrected
with upper airway surgery. Prior to surgery, drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is …

(1) Background: Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) enables the three-dimensional and
dynamic visualization of the upper airway (UA) during sleep, which is useful in selecting the …

This study's objective is to systematically review the literature on natural sleep endoscopy
(NSE), including the set-up, different scoring systems, visualized collapse patterns during …

Surgical results in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) vary greatly, whatever the
surgical technique or site. Most authors agree that rigorous patient selection is logical and …

Understanding the sites of pharyngeal collapse is mandatory for surgical treatment decision-
making in obstructive sleep-apnea-hypopnea syndrome patients. Drug-induced sleep …
