Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate if drug-induced sleep apnea (DISE) impacts surgical success in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
- The trial included 326 patients from seven countries, comparing outcomes between a group that underwent DISE and one that did not.
- Results showed that patients in the DISE group had significantly worse outcomes, with a lower success rate (66.5% vs. 80.8%) and less improvement in blood pressure compared to those who did not undergo DISE.
Objectives: Systematic review of palate surgery for the treatment of OSA.
Methods: Independent searches to identify publications relevant to OSA treatment and upper airway palate surgery. All relevant studies published between January 2001 and February 2018 were included.
