the results may be biased because different studies used different statistical thresholds and different criteria for OSA diagnoses. 2005 Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, Los Angeles, Sept. 25-28, 2005. BMJ. This technology platform consists of a stylus, slider, and the channels into which they are placed. Positional therapy showed a reduction in AHI compared with control (MD -7.38 events/hour, 95 % CI: -10.06 to -4.7; low-certainty evidence). Cao and colleagues (2020) noted that TNF- has been reported to play a part in the development of OSA and its complications; however, the relationship between TNF- and OSA still remains inconclusive. Following a standard diagnostic NPSG, the available literature indicates that OSA patients should receive CPAP titration to specify the lowest CPAP level, which abolishes obstructive apneas, hypopneas, respiratory-effort related arousals, and snoring in all sleep positions and sleep stages. It is usually safe, but it isnt right for everyone. In a systematic review and meta-analysis, Hsu and colleagues (2020) examined the effects of respiratory muscle therapy (i.e., breathing exercises, oropharyngeal exercises, speech therapy, and wind musical instruments) compared to control therapy or no treatment in improving AHI (primary outcome), sleepiness and other polysomnographic outcomes for patients diagnosed with OSA. The MESAM and the static charge sensitive bed have not been proven to be valid devices for screening or diagnosing OSA. Loss to follow-up would probably have been less and compliance would probably have been higher given the positive results in trials with CPAP users. Sleep & Breathing = Schlaf & Atmung, 19(3), 769774. Li X, He J. Woodson BT, Nelson L, Mickelson S, et al. The median ODI was reduced by 67.5% from 25.4 to 8.6/h at 18 mo. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the most significant inflammatory markers and an excellent proxy for the inflammatory/immune system. Aetna considers the use of DISE medically necessary to evaluate appropriateness ofFDA-approved hypoglossal nerve stimulation if multiple levels of obstruction are suspected, and when all of the criteria for hypoglossal nerve stimulation are met. Subgroup analyses were carried out based on OSAS severity, ethnicity, age, BMI, assay type, and sample source. EPAP therapy is newer and it is less commonly prescribed than the other PAP therapies. However, a recent paper in children suggested that the observed site of collapse during DISE does not always corresponds with the primary site of flow limitation (Garcia and Woodson, 2020; Yanagisawa-Minami et al, 2020). Efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure for treatment of hypernasality. All patients underwent a fully attended overnight PSG and detailed otolaryngologic examination. 2009;(2): CD007736. Becker HF, Jerrentrup A, Ploch T, et al. It has hair to trap dirt, dust particles, and bacteria. Flint PW, et al. Thus the AHI is reported only in Type I or Type II sleep studies.The respiratory disturbance index (RDI) is equal to the episodes of apnea and hypopnea per hour of recordingwithout the use of a positive airway pressure device. Nasalblockage in the anterior part of the nose (e.g., stenotic nares, nasal polyps, or deviated septum). The Clinical Guideline for the Evaluation, Management and Long-term Care of Obstructive Sleep apnea in Adults released by the Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea Task Force of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (Epstein et al, 2009) state that positional therapy, consisting of a method that keeps the patient in a non-supine position, is an effective secondary therapy or can be a supplement to primary therapies for OSA in patients who have a low AHI in the non-supine versus that in the supine position. } Twenty-four patients (56 %) met efficacy criteria; their mean AHI was 31.9 19.8, 11.0 7.9, 16.4 12.2 at PSG1, PSG2, and PSG3, respectively (p < 0.001, PSG1 versus both PSG2 and PSG3). How much sleep do I need? Goals for individuals who speak a language other than English take into consideration their linguistic background. Patients with a complete lateral oropharyngeal wall collapse may need aggressive treatment strategies because of the high probability of subsequent cardiovascular complications (Level of Evidence = IV). Despite having normal structure and muscle movement, the VP valve may lack rhythm and timing. The Cleft Palate-Craniofacial Journal, 45, 172178. Pichon Riviere A, Augustovski F, Alcaraz A, et al. Reference article, Radiopaedia.org. 2. Clinical information on Restore's website reported that with the Pillar Procedure, AHI was reduced in 13 of 16 patients (81.3 %) with a 53.4 % mean decrease for those 13 patients. January 3, 2018. Last Review09/16/2022. In most cases, these resonance problems result from poor control of the VP valve due to the lack of auditory feedback. Tubing for heated or non-heated humidifier. ), tracheostomy, tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy, and orthodontic devices such as the tongue retaining device, may be effective treatments for properly selected patients with OSA. However, it is comparatively invasive. Available at: https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/1942134-overview. In a prospective, non-randomized, double-blinded single cohort study, Ozmen et al (2011) examined the reliability of SleepStrip as a screening test in OSA syndrome. The authors concluded that the findings of this study supported that upper airway stimulation is a safe and effective therapeutic option for patients with OSA in routine clinical practice. Daytime sleepiness as measured by ESS was significantly reduced (p = 0.01), and sleep-related quality of life (QOL) as measured by FOSQ significantly improved (p = 0.01) when compared with baseline. The mask is hooked up to a machine that delivers a constant flow of air into your nose. A total of 49 OSA patients (mean AHI 30.1 +/- 16.3 events x h(-1)) with symptomatic fixed nasal obstruction due to deviated septum were randomly assigned to either septoplasty (surgery group; n = 27) or sham surgery (placebo group; n = 22). Laryngoscope. 265299). They stated that further study is needed. Screening typically includes the following: See the Assessment section of ASHA's Practice Portal page on Cleft Lip and Palate for further details related to screening in persons with cleft lip and palate. Lee et al (2009) evaluated optimal sleep positions in 16 patients, including lateral position, cervical vertebral support with head tilting (CVS-HT), scapula support (SS), and LP, through use of polysomnography for2 successive nights. These researchersaddressed critical design issues in a pilot study before conducting a definitive, randomized, controlled trial. They compared outcome data between institutions and subsequently combined the cohorts and compared baseline to posttreatment results. Cochrane Database Syst Rev. DL28603. The lowest SaO2 increased during the night for both PD and CPAP groups. This Clinical Policy Bulletin may be updated and therefore is subject to change. The following positive airway pressure supplies are considered not medically necessary convenience items: Note: Aetna follows Medicare DME MACrules with respect to the usual medically necessary quantity of supplies for positive airway pressure devices. Accessed Sept. 4, 2017. Waltham, MA: UpToDate; reviewed November 2014. Significant improvement in mean FOSQ score was observed from baseline (14.3) to 12 months (17.3), and the effect was maintained at 24 months (17.2). 2001;164(4):614-619. A total of 50 consecutive patients who had moderate to severe OSAS with Friedman tongue position III or IV and underwent midline glossectomy with lingual tonsillectomy as part of multi-level sleep apnea surgery and had pre- and post-surgery in-laboratory sleep studies performed. There was a suggestion that subjects with positional or milder SDB in the lateral position were those most likely to respond (but this observation needs to be confirmed in a larger study). OtolaryngologyHead and Neck Surgery, 156, 606610. presence and type of articulation errors. London, UK: NICE; May 2005. Collop NA, Anderson WM, Boehlecke B, et al. Medscape. Muscle weakness/dysarthria resulting in hypernasality. The inter-rater reliability for palatal CCC ranged from moderate to substantial. A total of 17 patients with moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing and Fujita type II upper airway collapse for whom conservative treatment failed were enrolled in this study. Positional therapy versus CPAP -- The 3 studies included for this comparison were randomized cross-over trials; 2 studies found that there was no difference in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores between CPAP and PT; 2 studies showed that CPAP produced a greater reduction in AHI with a MD of 6.4 events per hour (95 % CI: 3.00 to 9.79; low-certainty evidence) compared to PT. Cautery-assisted palatal stiffening operation. The authors concluded that trans-oral robotic surgery for tongue base reduction and partial epiglottidectomy for moderate to severe OSA in Asian patients for whom positive airway pressure treatment had failed is associated with good efficacy and low complication rates. 1997;52(1):37-42. The MSLT evaluates the rapidity with which a patient falls asleep during daytime nap opportunities at 2-hour intervals throughout the day. Positional therapy is less invasive and thus expected to have better adherence. Available from www.asha.org/policy/. Post-operative AHI in these 30 patients was better than a comparable group of 44 patients undergoing UPPP, 26 of whom had UPPP as the sole procedure. Morgenthaler TI, Kapen S, Lee-Chiong T, et al; Standards of Practice Committee, American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Thorax. Active and sham groups were compared for changes in therapeutic CPAP pressures (primary outcome) with a 90-day follow-up sleep study and CPAP compliance (secondary outcome) with a 90-day smart card report. By accident more than design, the indulgence and yielding temper of our aunt was mingled with resolution and stedfastness. Laryngoscope. Post-implantation pain scores were mild-to-moderate (4.4) at day1 and resolved by day 5. The authors stated that the novelty of the results should be balanced against the following drawbacks. Sleep Breath. A single panoramic x-ray of the jaws and a lateral cephalometric x-rayareconsidered medically necessaryfor theevaluation for anoral appliance for OSA. 2007;136(5):823-826. Phoneme-specific nasal air emission (PSNE) or phoneme-specific hypernasality with normal VP function. Two reviewers independently applied eligibility criteria. In part 1, 20 of 22 enrolled patients (2 exited the study) were examined for factors predictive of therapy response. Obstructive sleep apnea: A palatable treatment option? Berry RB, Kryger MH, Massie CA. An assessment by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE, 2007) reached similar conclusions about the lack of reliable evidence of the effectiveness of palatal implants as a treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. (2016b). Results of the meta-regression showed that greater age was associated with higher serum IL-6 levels. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that higher the AHI, higher was the IL-8 concentration. Fifty-four men and 17 women, aged 53.2 11.5 years (mean SD) had a baseline apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) greater than 5 events per hour. 2012;2012:3660-3663. Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, pillar implants and hyoid suspension should only be considered in selected patients and potential benefits should be weighed against the risk of long-term side-effects. Investigation of the effects of miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expansion on airflow in the upper airway of an adult patient with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome using computational fluid-structure interaction analysis. What is the remaining status of adaptive servo-ventilation? The authors concluded that RME in children with OSAS appeared to be an effective treatment for this syndrome. } Your doctor may recommend that you: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The review presented the experience of the robotic center that developed the technique with regards to patient selection, surgical method, and post-operative care. 2020;163(4):645-653. However, the evidence regarding their clinical relevance is inconsistent. Both of these entities have their own series of problems, with sleep apnea and nasal mucous flow disruptions at the forefront. treatment efficacy was limited to 2 single-night studies, 1 at the beginning and the other at the end of a 28-day take-home period. Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg. Effects of upper-airway stimulation on sleep architecture in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. However, to date, there is very little published outcomes data for patients with OSA. The authors concluded that the findings of this review revealed that HNS therapy may be considered in selected patients with OSA who fail medical treatment. They noted that ongoing follow-up is needed to determine the natural product life of the device components. Patients underwent drug-induced sleep endoscopy, transoral robot-assisted lingual tonsillectomy with UPPP, and pre-operative and post-operative PSG. Perceived when there is reduced nasal resonance on vowels, sonorants, and nasal consonants. Nasal surgery, radiofrequency tonsil reduction, tongue base surgery, uvulopalatal flap, laser midline glossectomy, tongue suspension and genioglossus advancement cannot be recommended as single interventions. The AHI was 15.5 +/- 18.9 (p = 0.001) for the prescribed device at the end of the 30-day trial. A number of factors (e.g., experience of the performing surgeon, depth of sedation, or the drug used for sedation) may influence the findings seen on DISE. With regard to oral dryness, the score with C-Flex (1.4) was significantly lower than with CPAP (1.9) (p < 0.05). Somnoplasty system. Laser-assisted uvulopalatoplasty for obstructive sleep apnea: A systematic review and meta-analysis. In part 2, patients were enrolled using selection criteria derived from the experience in part 1. It is worth noting that a concha bullosa and a deviated septum may interfere with transnasal surgery and is thus a relevant finding on imaging of the region for other reasons 6. These devices -- a new generation of devices for PT -- provide a subtle vibrating stimulus that prevents patients adopting the supine position. J Sleep Res. Significant heterogeneity (2: I2 = 36.6 %, p = 0.16; 4: I2 = 69.7 %, p = 0.001) was observed across studies, however, heterogeneity could not be explained by variations in mean age, BMI, AHI, gender, ethnic background, or the ApoE 2 and 4 alleles. The investigators recorded demographic data, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and preoperative and postoperative polysomnographic information. Accessed Sept. 4, 2017. Kryger, M. H., Berry, R. B., & Massie, C. A. The incidence of concha bullosa and its relationship to nasal septal deviation and paranasal sinus disease. However, rather than delivering a set level of air on inhalation and exhalation, ASV is programmed to release customized air pressure that adapts in real time, anticipating and responding to central apneic events. The Silent Partner is a Class II intra-oral device cleared for marketing by the FDA through the 510(k) process; the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. This is important, as most of the QOL outcomes will be evident only when the therapies are given over a longer period of time. Slow Wave DS8 is a mandibular re-positioning device designed to reduce or alleviate snoring and mild-to-moderate OSA in adults. During the first night of treatment, patients receiving C-Flex had less dryness of the mouth, but this difference disappeared over a period of 7 weeks. 1997;111(5):1348-1355. 2008;71(8):572-577. (2017). Eur Respir J. These researchers carried out a systematic review by examining data-bases for articles published through July 2019. Sleep. Imani and associates (2020b) stated that OSAS is associated with a variety of inflammatory factors. Premarket Approval Application (PMA) No. Long-term adherence to EPAP was excellent in those who had a positive clinical response at month 3 of the EPAP versus sham study. Ratneswaran D, Guni A, Pengo MF, et al. Mean AHI (+/- SD) was 12.0 +/- 14.5/H for TASB and 4.9 +/- 3.9/H for nasal CPAP (nCPAP). Note: Aetna follows Medicare DME MAC rules for the medically necessary quantity of tracheostomy supplies for OSA and other indications. No correlation with OSA severity was found. Int J Dent. Cumulative and recursive cumulative meta-analyses (CMA) were also carried out to investigate the trend and stability of effect sizes as evidence accumulated. ), 22(8), 15001507. There is a trend towards improvement after weight reduction. All rights reserved. Radiofrequency volumetric reduction of the tongue. Neurology. Sleep. Signs of it include dry mouth, headache, or a sore throat in the morning. Farid-Moayer M, Siegel LC, Black J. An extensive literature search is performed through PubMed.com, Thecochranelibrary.com (CENTRAL only), Embase.com, and recent conference meeting abstracts in the field. The sensitivity and specificity of the SleepStrip were 94.4 % and 93.5 % when used to diagnose cases with AHI = or > 40. It is a common occurrence for the septum to be deviated and in. A statistically significant association is found between mean AHI predicted outcome with RCMP and treatment outcome with OAm on polysomnographic or portable sleep monitoring evaluation (p < 0.05). Elahi MM, Frenkiel S, Fageeh N. Paraseptal structural changes and chronic sinus disease in relation to the deviated septum. Cautery-assisted palatal stiffening operation (CAPSO) is an office-based procedure performed with local anesthesia for the treatment of palatal snoring. Suh GD. Before and 6 months after surgery, a 2-night home sleep test was performed. With respect to simple tonsillectomy as a treatment for adult OSA, updates to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine practice parameters for the treatment of OSA state that classic upper airway surgical techniques such as nasal-septal reconstruction, cauterization, and tonsillectomy frequently fail to correct OSA (Aurora et al, 2010). A multi-contact electrode positioned around the main trunk of the 12th nerve connected to an implanted pulse generator stimulates segments of the nerve, activating dilator muscles. (n.d.). In a continuation of a prospective case series, Walker et al (2007) assessed the long-term safety and outcomes of palatal implants for patients with mild-to-moderate OSA. A total of 20 patients have completed the study to date. 2005;172(1):118-122. Gillespie MB, Soose RJ, Woodson BT; STAR Trial Investigators. U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Laryngoscope. They included surgical morbidity and AEs where reported; but these were not systematically analyzed. NIH Pub. Non-CPAP therapies in obstructive sleep apnoea. ASV operates similarly to PAP therapy, pushing out air through a tube and mask that the sleeper wears. Youll wear a mask, which will connect the BiPAP machine to you. Stimulation of the branch of the HG nerve that innervates the genioglossus muscle caused protrusion and contralateral deviation of the tongue. The authors concluded that there is no accepted scientific evidence that methods aiming to increase muscle tone of the stomatognathic system are effective in reducing AHI to below 5 events per hour. Choanal atresia (abnormal narrowing of the passageway from the nose to the pharynx). Nasalance in the speech of children with normal hearing and children with hearing loss. Shprintzen, R. J., & Golding-Kushner, K. J. 2001;80(9):640-644. A meta-analysis of voxel-based brain morphometry studies in obstructive sleep apnea. Berry et al (2011) examined the efficacy of a novel nasal expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) device as a treatment for OSA. Lateral position was found to have the most dominant effect (p = 0.0319) and SS (p = 0.0265) for AHI. Woodson BT, Derowe A, Hawke M, et al. The authors concluded that the findings of this meta-analysis showed that the serum AGE level was elevated in patients with OSAHS; suggesting that AGEs may play an important role in insulin resistance in OSAHS and serve as a biomarker for patients with OSAHS with a high risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Also, this study lacked objective measures on treatment efficacy by means of a repeat PSG in all patients to evaluate effects on AHI and snoring. A total of 25 eligible studies, including 2,301 participants and 1,123 controls, were included in this meta-analysis. OL OL OL OL LI { See ASHA's Practice Portal pages on Adult Hearing Screening and Childhood Hearing Screening for information about hearing screenings. Sound resonates in one of the cavities of the vocal tract (e.g., nasal, oral, or pharyngeal cavity) but is blocked at the cavity exit due to an obstruction. Clinical practice guideline for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea and snoring with oral appliance therapy: An update for 2015. These researchers stated that future studies might consider, if and to what extent interventions on OSA (e.g., using CPAP devices) may favorably impact on CRP/hs-CRP levels and possibly also on weight regulation. Consecutive participants with a response were included in a randomized, controlled therapy-withdrawal trial. Nose: No discharge, no obstruction, septum not deviated. Zzoma Positional Sleeper. A total of 37 patients with a mean age of 52.1 +/- 12.2 years and mean body mass index of 35.7 +/- 5.2 participated in the study.

It's linked to stroke, high blood pressure, and heart disease, so see your doctor if you think you might have sleep apnea. Subjects maintained seizure calendars and anti-epileptic drug dosages were held constant. American Sleep Disorders Association, Standards of Practice Committee. A Decision Memorandum from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS, 2009)concluded that there is sufficient evidence to support the use ofdevices that measure3 or more channels that include actigraphy, oximetry, and peripheral arterial tone (e.g., Watch-PAT 100, Itamar Medical,Inc.) to aid the diagnosis of OSA in personswho have signs and symptoms indicative of OSA if performed unattended in or out of a sleep lab facility or attended in a sleep lab facility. 2013;41(2):360-367. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder that causes your breathing to stop and start again throughout the night while you sleep. Screening of 34 publications identified 45 studies that met the inclusion criteria of this meta-analysis and meta-regression. (accessed on 04 Nov 2022) https://doi.org/10.53347/rID-1155.
