Sleep apnea, the airway occlusion during sleep and loosen up the surrounding tissues crumpled means reduction or complete cessation of respiration as a result of the air duct.
Sleep apnea is a very serious health problem, hypoxia connected to constant sleepiness, fatigue, weight gain, depression, headaches and cause problems such as inflammation in the vessels besides the fact that the structures of the receptor in the brain called the lack of oxygen in the blood to detect and creating signals that stimulate the heart as a result of high blood pressure, chronic heart disease or heart rhythm disorders and cardiac arrest may result in serious consequences such as.
The most important step in the treatment of sleep apnea it is impossible to determine the cause of the problem. Until recently the most important method in the diagnosis of sleep apnea, apnea test prove the existence of which is accepted as the cause of the problem because it is not possible to show the area of blockage although usually the operation is implemented for the region of the palate, and in this way pressure in patients with sleep masks found that the solution was preferred.
With the method that was implemented recently, which leads to snoring snoring and sleep endoscopy airway narrowing and obstruction of the formation and location of determining the shape more successful results obtained in the treatment of the methods that can be allowed to be selected
Patients during sleep endoscopy, operating conditions, Sleep Monitor, which monitors the level of the brain, accompanied by a (BIS – bispectral index), normal sleep and after being heavily sedated using drugs that mimic the nostrils with a soft endoscope inserted and assessed the airway, snoring and apnea which is the cause of the tightness and congestion zones and The Shape of the occurrence of these problems can be detected.
Following this assessment, the problem is most suitable for the formation of the shape and location of surgical or non-surgical method of selection has enabled us to significantly increase the success achieved in the treatment of sleep apnea.
