Obstructive Sleep Apnea Clinical Trial
Official title:
Minimally Invasive Genioglossus And Hyoid Advancement For Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Silhouette Sutures: A Pilot Study
This is a pilot study to determine the usefulness of a newly developed, minimally invasive tongue suture procedure for people with obstructive sleep apnea.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a common sleep-breathing disorder characterized by repetitive complete cessation of breathing due to pharyngeal obstruction. Untreated, it has been strongly associated with daytime sleepiness, hypertension, depression, coronary artery disease, stroke, and even death. It is estimated that up to 25% of men and 9% of women may suffer from this condition. One proposed mechanism of pharyngeal obstruction is that the posterior tongue is susceptible to collapse when supine during sleep, which causes further collapse of the soft palate and related structures. Treatment includes continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), mandibular advancement devices, and various surgical options. There are many surgical options for treating tongue base collapse, many of which are morbid with significant pain and discomfort involved. Silhouette Sutures (Kolster Methods, Inc.) are designed to hold and grip soft tissues using intermittently placed dissolvable cones spaced by knots. It has been used widely for years for facial cosmetic procedures with excellent results and safety record. This is a pilot study evaluating the practicality and efficacy of using Silhouette Sutures in an innovative, minimally invasive technique that obviates the need for more aggressive and morbid procedures for obstructive sleep apnea. ;
