Conditions
OSA
Registration Number
NCT02976207
Lead Sponsor
Hillel Yaffe Medical Center
Brief Summary

Long follow up on patients with obstructive sleep apnea that undergo diagnosis and surgical treatment

Detailed Description

Drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is increasingly performed procedure, offering dynamic upper airway evaluation during artificial sleep before surgical treatment for patients with obstructed

.)OSA(sleep apnea

* Aim: To evaluate the value of DISE for tailoring the proper treatment for patients with snoring and OSA DISE is a safe procedure, easily practicable, valid and reliable. We consider it a fundamental clinical procedure that is essential before choosing the surgical treatment. Our results so far suggest that a multilevel collapse is significantly associated with higher apnea hypopnea index values. We think that the weight did not play a significant role in RDI (Respiratory Disturbance Index) reduction. Our results till now show tailored surgery based on DISE may leverage sleep surgeries outcome significantly presenting 70% success rate based

* on our experience We therefore want to evaluate the patients in a long follow up period
