Filter by:The aim of the study is to determine whether there is a statistically significant difference in snoring intensity before and after performing a Barbed Reposition Pharyngoplasty as a single-level snoring procedure. The investigators aim to determine whether this is a valid alternative to the more classical techniques of pharyngoplasty. Furthermore, the investigators also wish to map the various postoperative complications and compare them with those of the more conventional techniques. The investigators compare the snoring intensity before surgery with the snoring intensity at 2 weeks (first postoperative control), at 6 weeks (second postoperative control) and at 6 months (Third postoperative control). For the evaluation of snoring, the investigators use 4 scales/questionnaires. These questionnaires are currently also used as standard at the outpatient clinic for snoring problems. These 4 scales/questionnaires are completed at every check-up. During the first postoperative check-up, the postoperative side effects are checked (bleeding, infection, readmission, needed consultation with another doctor, date of resumption of work). The investigators also map the pain with a visual analog scale and measure this the day after the operation and let the patient fill it in 3 days, 1 week and 2 weeks after the operation.
MIST+ is studying a nasal spray to see if it will reduce the need for surgery for snoring. Children aged 3-12 are invited to take part. Snoring affects up to 10% of children and can cause sleeping problems and concentration or behavioural issues in the daytime. Currently the most common treatment for snoring is surgery to remove the tonsils and/or adenoids, however many children wait a long time to see a specialist. This research is trying to find if nasal sprays can help children with snoring, and whether this can reduce the need for surgery.
The purpose of this study is to learn more about breathing disorders during sleep. The investigators want to learn how breathing sounds made during sleep relate to breathing disorders during sleep.
SUMMARY INTRODUCTION: among various treatments for patients with primary snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS) and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), the injection snoreplasty arose as a promising alternative in some selected cases. OBJECTIVE: to investigate the efficacy and tolerance of injection snoreplasty comparing Ethanol and Ethanolamine Oleate.
