[Quantification of the loudness of snoring according to Watch-PAT-200 and its relationship with the severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome].

Purpose Of The Study: Evaluate the capabilities of Watch-PAT-200 in obtaining data to determine the relationship between the loudness of snoring and the severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).

Material And Methods: From 2017 to 2019, 208 patients with complaints of nocturnal snoring were examined. Apnea / hypopnea indices (AHI) and respiratory distress index (RDI) were assessed.

[Comprehensive diagnostics of the patients presenting with Eustachian tube dysfunction].

The objective of the present work was comprehensive diagnostics of Eustachian tube dysfunction as exemplified by 82 patients with this disorder. The examination using the standard techniques was supplemented by active anterior rhinomanometry, audiometry, and tympanometry. Three-dimensional computed tomography (3D X-ray CT) was used for detailed diagnostics of the state of the nasal structures and paranasal sinuses.
