Abstract
BACKGROUND The introduction of skeletal anchorage utilized for maxillary protraction with a face mask or class III elastics has been developed for the management of class III malocclusions with minimal dental effect. The objective of the present review was to evaluate the current evidence regarding airway dimensional changes following bone-anchored maxillary protraction. A search was conducted by two authors (S.A & B.A) in the following databases: MEDLINE via PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar and Open Grey; besides a hand search in references of selected articles and developing a search alert in electronic databases. Selection criteria comprised randomized as well as prospective clinical trials evaluating airway dimensional changes following bone-anchored maxillary protraction. Relevant data were extracted after studies retrieval and selection. The risk of bias was thereafter evaluated using the revised RoB 2 tool for randomized clinical trials and the ROBINS-I tool was used for non-randomized clinical trials. The quality of studies was assessed using the modified Jadad score. After examining (eligibility) full-text articles, four clinical trials were ultimately included. These studies evaluated the airway dimensional changes, following bone-anchored maxillary protraction in comparison to different control study groups. Based on the available evidence, all the bone-anchored maxillary protraction devices used in the eligible studies in the present systematic review resulted in an improvement in the airway dimensions. However, due to the few numbers of studies available and the guarded evidence due to the low quality of evidence of three out of four included articles, there is no strong evidence to support a significant increase in the airway dimensions following bone-anchored maxillary protraction. Therefore, there is a need for more randomized controlled clinical trials with similar bone-anchored protraction devices and similar assessment methods for more valid comparisons, excluding any confounding factors, on airway dimensional changes.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder whose prevalence is increasing in China consistent with rising obesity trends. OSA is a heterogeneous disorder depends on anatomical and nonanatomical risk factors. Ethnicity differentially influences the attribution of these OSA risk factors. Chinese patients had more craniofacial bony restriction and Caucasians were more obese. This suggests ethnic differences in potential applications for diagnostics and therapeutics. However, current strategies for the management of OSA reflect a one-size-fits-all approach based on the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). Although continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) remains the first-line and most efficacious treatment for OSA, the acceptance is unacceptably low in China. Therefore, targeted therapies to treat OSA need to be developed. This review summarizes the differences in OSA pathogenesis of Chinese patients and analyzes the current condition of personalized medicine to patients with OSA in China. The application of personalized medicine to OSA in the Chinese population is still a long way off.

Abstract
A literature review was conducted regarding the assessment and treatment of postoperative pain following surgery for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Given the risks of opioid use by patients with OSA, special attention to opioid risk reduction and avoidance is warranted in this population. The results of this review demonstrate the existence of a body of evidence that supports the use of nonopioid analgesics and nonpharmacologic approaches pain management. Strategies for managing postoperative pain should emphasize the use of local anesthetic infiltration, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs, acetaminophen, topical analgesics, surgical wound cooling, and when necessary, safer opioid medications, such as tramadol and intranasal butorphanol.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is characterised by partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep. Approximately 1% to 4% of children are affected by OSA, with adenotonsillar hypertrophy being the most common underlying risk factor. Surgical removal of enlarged adenoids or tonsils is the currently recommended first-line treatment for OSA due to adenotonsillar hypertrophy. Given the perioperative risk and an estimated recurrence rate of up to 20% following surgery, there has recently been an increased interest in less invasive alternatives to adenotonsillectomy. As the enlarged adenoids and tonsils consist of hypertrophied lymphoid tissue, anti-inflammatory drugs have been proposed as a potential non-surgical treatment option in children with OSA. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of OSA in children. SEARCH METHODS We identified trials from searches of the Cochrane Airways Group Specialised Register, CENTRAL and MEDLINE (1950 to 2019). For identification of ongoing clinical trials, we searched ClinicalTrials.gov and the World Health Organization (WHO) trials portal. SELECTION CRITERIA Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) comparing anti-inflammatory drugs against placebo in children between one and 16 years with objectively diagnosed OSA (apnoea/hypopnoea index (AHI) ≥ 1 per hour). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two authors independently performed screening, data extraction, and quality assessment. We separately pooled results for the comparisons 'intranasal steroids' and 'montelukast' against placebo using random-effects models. The primary outcomes for this review were AHI and serious adverse events. Secondary outcomes included the respiratory disturbance index, desaturation index, respiratory arousal index, nadir arterial oxygen saturation, mean arterial oxygen saturation, avoidance of surgical treatment for OSA, clinical symptom score, tonsillar size, and adverse events. MAIN RESULTS We included five trials with a total of 240 children aged one to 18 years with mild to moderate OSA (AHI 1 to 30 per hour). All trials were performed in specialised sleep medicine clinics at tertiary care centres. Follow-up time ranged from six weeks to four months. Three RCTs (n = 137) compared intranasal steroids against placebo; two RCTs compared oral montelukast against placebo (n = 103). We excluded one trial from the meta-analysis since the patients were not analysed as randomised. We also had concerns about selective reporting in another trial. We are uncertain about the difference in AHI (MD -3.18, 95% CI -8.70 to 2.35) between children receiving intranasal corticosteroids compared to placebo (2 studies, 75 participants; low-certainty evidence). In contrast, children receiving oral montelukast had a lower AHI (MD -3.41, 95% CI -5.36 to -1.45) compared to those in the placebo group (2 studies, 103 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). We are uncertain whether the secondary outcomes are different between children receiving intranasal corticosteroids compared to placebo: desaturation index (MD -2.12, 95% CI -4.27 to 0.04; 2 studies, 75 participants; moderate-certainty evidence), respiratory arousal index (MD -0.71, 95% CI -6.25 to 4.83; 2 studies, 75 participants; low-certainty evidence), and nadir oxygen saturation (MD 0.59%, 95% CI -1.09 to 2.27; 2 studies, 75 participants; moderate-certainty evidence). Children receiving oral montelukast had a lower respiratory arousal index (MD -2.89, 95% CI -4.68 to -1.10; 2 studies, 103 participants; moderate-certainty evidence) and nadir of oxygen saturation (MD 4.07, 95% CI 2.27 to 5.88; 2 studies, 103 participants; high-certainty evidence) compared to those in the placebo group. We are uncertain, however, about the difference in desaturation index (MD -2.50, 95% CI -5.53 to 0.54; 2 studies, 103 participants; low-certainty evidence) between the montelukast and placebo group. Adverse events were assessed and reported in all trials and were rare, of minor nature (e.g. nasal bleeding), and evenly distributed between study groups. No study examined the avoidance of surgical treatment for OSA as an outcome. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS There is insufficient evidence for the efficacy of intranasal corticosteroids for the treatment of OSA in children; they may have short-term beneficial effects on the desaturation index and oxygen saturation in children with mild to moderate OSA but the certainty of the benefit on the primary outcome AHI, as well as the respiratory arousal index, was low due to imprecision of the estimates and heterogeneity between studies. Montelukast has short-term beneficial treatment effects for OSA in otherwise healthy, non-obese, surgically untreated children (moderate certainty for primary outcome and moderate and high certainty, respectively, for two secondary outcomes) by significantly reducing the number of apnoeas, hypopnoeas, and respiratory arousals during sleep. In addition, montelukast was well tolerated in the children studied. The clinical relevance of the observed treatment effects remains unclear, however, because minimal clinically important differences are not yet established for polysomnography-based outcomes in children. Long-term efficacy and safety data on the use of anti-inflammatory medications for the treatment of OSA in childhood are still not available. In addition, patient-centred outcomes like concentration ability, vigilance, or school performance have not been investigated yet. There are currently no RCTs on the use of other kinds of anti-inflammatory medications for the treatment of OSA in children. Future RCTs should investigate sustainability of treatment effects, avoidance of surgical treatment for OSA, and long-term safety of anti-inflammatory medications for the treatment of OSA in children and include patient-centred outcomes.

Abstract
Background The purpose of the study is to compare the effects on the pharyngeal airway space of skeletal anchored face mask with those of tooth-borne facemask. Methods We used two types of facemask for maxillary protraction, the tooth-borne facemask (TBFM) and the skeletal anchored facemask (SAFM), and evaluated the effects of each facemask on the pharyngeal airway. Twenty-eight patients (mean age 10.3 years) were treated with the TBFM and 24 patients (mean age 11.2 years) were treated with the SAFM. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken before treatment (T1) and after treatment (T2) to assess changes in the dimensions of the upper airway. Statistical analysis was performed with independent t tests, matched t tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, and Kruskal-Wallis tests. Results There were marked increases in upper airway dimensions in both groups following treatment, but the SAFM group had a significantly greater increase in airway dimensions than the TBFM group. Also, the SAFM subgroups showed more improved airway measurements than the TBFM subgroups in both the superior and inferior pharyngeal airways. Conclusions SAFM is more effective than TBFM in increasing upper airway dimensions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study investigated the outcome of the hyoid suspension as a part of a multilevel surgery protocol. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: Eighty-three patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) underwent a multilevel surgical treatment because of continuous positive-airway pressure intolerance, 67 with the hyoid suspension and 16 without the hyoid suspension. All patients underwent a pre- and postoperative polysomnography in the sleep laboratory. RESULTS: The mean preoperative apnea hypopnea index (AHI) was 36.4 ± 21.2 and 19.4 ± 19.7 postoperatively for all patients ( P < 0.0001). Further statistically significant changes were found for the arousal index, the oxygen saturation, and the daytime sleepiness. No statistically significant change was found for body mass index. In the group of patients treated without the hyoid suspension, the AHI did not decrease statistically significant. After surgery, 59.7% of the subjects with the hyoid suspension were regarded as cured. CONCLUSION: Multilevel surgery including the hyoid suspension is an effective treatment in subgroup of OSA patients. EBM rating: C-4

Abstract
The prevalence of sleep disturbances and their symptomatic manifestations may be different in men and women. Women with obstructive sleep apnea are less likely to be diagnosed with sleep apnea compared to men, probably due to atypical symptoms such as morning headaches, symptoms of depression and daytime fatigue. There is a great importance of diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders regarding quality of life, co-morbidity and mortality in both genders.

Abstract
Extensive use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has positive clinical benefits for most patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, patient adherence is a major limiting factor to the effectiveness of CPAP treatment. This study determined the potential and quantifiable factors affecting the willingness of patients with OSA to undertake CPAP treatment by comparing the polysomnographic parameters recorded during diagnosis and titration. Patients with moderate and severe OSA who attended diagnostic polysomnography (PSG) and CPAP titration at the sleep center of China Medical University Hospital (CMUH) were included in the study. A total of 312 patients were divided into persistent users and nonusers of CPAP according to their use of in-home CPAP following titration and a 7-day CPAP trial. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to define the potential polysomnographic predictors of persistent CPAP adherence, and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Most patients were men older than 50 years who were overweight or obese. Among the patients, 146 (46.8%) became persistent CPAP users. A 10% improvement of oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and a 10% increment in deep sleep percentage increased the chance of persistent CPAP use 1.18-fold and 1.07-fold, respectively. In addition, the improved ODI and deep sleep during CPAP titration increased the chance of persistent CPAP user. The polysomnographic parameters obtained from diagnosis and during titration can facilitate the prediction of persistent CPAP use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this article is to provide an understanding of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, risk factors, potentially serious complications, diagnostic modalities, and treatment options available for pediatric obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). DATA SOURCES The Ovid, MEDLINE, and PubMed databases from 1950 to the present were searched for relevant articles regarding pediatric OSAS. STUDY SELECTION Articles describing the prevalence, mechanisms, risk factors, complications, and most recent updates on assessment and management of pediatric sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) were used for this review. RESULTS The data suggest that SDB may be considered a disease continuum. It ranges in severity from mild obstruction of the upper airway, producing primary snoring, to increased upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS), to continuous episodes of complete upper airway obstruction or OSAS. The degree of sleep disruption, hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and upper airway airflow reduction are main factors in determining the severity of SDB. Mounting evidence implicates OSAS as a risk factor for decreased growth, impaired neurocognitive function, and cardiovascular morbidity. The first treatment of choice for OSAS in children remains tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. CONCLUSIONS Sleep-disordered breathing is common in children and can cause minor as well as major disruption of sleep and health problems requiring intervention. Despite apparent symptoms and potentially severe consequences, SDB may be underdiagnosed and unrecognized. Therefore, a high index of suspicion and detailed clinical history and physical examination should be part of any clinical assessment of a child presenting with breathing difficulty during sleep.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep. Approximately 1% to 4% of children are affected by OSA, with adenotonsillar hypertrophy the most common underlying risk factor. Surgical removal of enlarged tonsils and adenoids is the most commonly used treatment for OSA. Given the perioperative risk of the intervention and an estimated recurrence rate of up to 20%, there has recently been an increased interest in non-surgical treatment modalities. As the enlarged adenoids and tonsils consist of hypertrophied lymphoid tissue, anti-inflammatory agents have been proposed as a useful non-invasive treatment option in children with OSA. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy of anti-inflammatory drugs for the treatment of OSA in children. SEARCH STRATEGY We identified trials using searches of the Cochrane Airways Group Specialized Register, MEDLINE (1950 to 2010), EMBASE (1988 to 2010), CINAHL (1982 to 2010), CENTRAL (1964 to 2010), Web of Science (1900 to 2010), LILACS (1982 to 2010) and International Pharmaceutical Abstracts (IPA) (1970 to 2010). SELECTION CRITERIA Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing anti-inflammatory drugs against placebo, other anti-inflammatory drugs, or other treatment in children between one and 16 years with objectively diagnosed OSA (Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) ≥ 1/hour (h)). DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Both authors independently performed data extraction and quality assessment. It was not possible to combine data from the included studies; we summarized data in a narrative fashion. MAIN RESULTS We included three RCTs. The first study was a six-week parallel-group trial (25 participants, mean age 3.8 years, mean AHI 10.8/h) of intranasal fluticasone versus placebo showed a statistically significant effect of the drug on improving the AHI. The second study compared intranasal budesonide with placebo in a six-week cross-over trial (62 participants, mean age 8.2 years, mean AHI 3.7/h). The authors reported an advantage of the drug over placebo in reducing the AHI. However, the patients were not analyzed as randomized so the result must be interpreted with caution. No valid group comparisons were reported for the third trial (30 participants, oral montelukast versus placebo in a 12-week parallel-group trial), which has so far only been published as an abstract. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS A single small study has found a short-term beneficial effect on the AHI in children with mild to moderate OSA. However, long-term safety and efficacy data are not available yet. Further RCTs are needed to evaluate anti-inflammatory drugs for OSA in children.

Abstract
For over 100 years obstructive sleep apnea has been recognized as a clinical entity in adults and more recently in children. A comprehensive review of the literature of pediatric obstructive sleep apnea was conducted using a PubMed search for original research articles. Bibliographies of these articles were reviewed for additional relevant articles not identified by the initial PubMed search. This article reviews the epidemiology, pathogenesis and risk factors, clinical features, diagnostic evaluation and treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in children. All physicians who provide care for children should be aware of the unique features of obstructive sleep apnea in children and the appropriate management.

Abstract
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) show recurrent episodes of nightly hypoxic stress. The purpose of this study is the detection of alterations of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal stress axis in OSAS patients before and after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy. An activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis was proposed because of the nightly hypoxic stress in these patients, but previous studies were not conclusive. Here we hypothesize that CPAP therapy decreases salivary cortisol concentrations in patients with severe OSAS. We performed a clinical within-subject study including 50 patients with newly diagnosed OSAS and an apnea-hypopnea index greater than or equal to 40 h(-1). Diurnal profiles of salivary cortisol concentrations were compiled before and after 3 months of treatment with CPAP. Therefore, 6 cortisol samples were collected: before and after lunch, in the evening, the next morning after awakening, and before and after breakfast. Thirty-eight patients returned after 3 months of CPAP therapy for follow-up. According to the reference range for healthy subjects, cortisol values were not pathologically increased. Analysis of variance revealed a significant effect of CPAP therapy on diurnal cortisol profiles (P = .048). Subjects with severe OSAS showed a decrease (3.04 +/- 0.55 nmol L(-1) pre-CPAP vs 2.48 +/- 0.78 nmol L(-1) post-CPAP, P = .038) of evening cortisol levels after CPAP treatment, whereas prelunch levels were increased after CPAP therapy (7.18 +/- 0.83 nmol L(-1) pre-CPAP vs 10.22 +/- 1.10 nmol L(-1) post-CPAP, P = .044). Our results show that CPAP therapy decreases evening cortisol concentrations in patients with severe OSAS. These data suggest that OSAS may increase the cortisol nadir that is reversed after CPAP therapy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Collapsibility of the upper airway in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) causes repeated arousals from sleep, decreased oxygen saturation of the blood, and excessive sleepiness (ES). Patients with OSA are at increased risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and experience occupational and vehicular accidents more frequently than the general population. Furthermore, the life expectancy of patients with untreated OSA is significantly reduced. METHODS A MEDLINE search of articles published between 2003 and 2008 was conducted using the search terms: obstructive sleep apnea [ti/ab] AND treatment; obstructive sleep apnoea [ti/ab] AND treatment; and excessive sleepiness [ti/ab] AND treatment. Searches were limited to articles in English; clinical trials; meta-analyses; practice guidelines; randomized, controlled trials; and reviews. RESULTS Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the reference-standard treatment for patients with OSA. CPAP addresses the symptoms of OSA and reduces the risk of heart disease and depression associated with this sleep disorder. However, the efficacy of CPAP is contingent on patient adherence, and >or=4 hours of therapy per night are required for patients with OSA to experience significant clinical benefits. However, reports of nonadherence to CPAP therapy range from 29% to 83%. Other therapies are available for patients who refuse or cannot adhere to CPAP treatment, including dental devices and surgery, but these treatments are generally considered to be less efficacious. A significant number of patients continue to experience residual ES despite CPAP treatment. Pharmacologic therapies, eg, modafinil and armodafinil, may be of use in patients with OSA to improve tolerance with CPAP or to address residual ES. CONCLUSION There are a variety of treatments available for patients with OSA. Successful treatment involves encouraging patient compliance with CPAP or oral appliances. Primary-care physicians play a crucial role in recognizing this disorder and ensuring the best possible outcome through support and education.

Abstract
RATIONALE The efficacy of immediate adaptation of mandibular advancement devices made of thermoplastic material as a treatment option for sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) has been demonstrated in clinical studies. To date, there have been no studies comparing the efficacy of such prefabricated devices with custom-made devices. OBJECTIVES Our purpose was to compare the efficacy of both types of devices in patients with SDB. METHODS A randomized controlled cross-over trial, comprising 4 months of treatment with a thermoplastic and a custom-made device, with a 1-month washout interval. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 35 patients (29 males; age, 49 +/- 9 yr; apnea-hypopnea index [AHI], 13 +/- 11 events/h; body mass index, 28 +/- 4 kg/m(2)) completed the protocol. AHI was only reduced with the custom-made device (P = 0.005). In addition, this device reduced snoring to a greater extent than the thermoplastic device. The success rate was higher with the custom-made device (60 vs. 31%; P = 0.02). One-third of the patients demonstrated compliance failure with the thermoplastic device, mainly because of insufficient overnight retention. Total failure rate with the thermoplastic device was 69%, whereas the majority (63%) of these were successfully treated with the custom-made device. At the end of the study, 82% of the patients preferred the custom-made device, and 9% had no preference (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In this study, a custom-made device turned out to be more effective than a thermoplastic device in the treatment of SDB. Our results suggest that the thermoplastic device cannot be recommended as a therapeutic option nor can it be used as a screening tool to find good candidates for mandibular advancement therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is a "systemic disease" of the upper airways and the upper digestive tract. The concept of multilevel surgery takes account of the fact that the location of the obstruction frequently cannot be identified precisely. PATIENTS AND METHODS In this retrospective study over 4 years, data on 25 patients (median age 49.9 years) with moderate to severe OSAS treated with a surgical multilevel therapy were statistically evaluated. The treatment carried out consisted in reduction of the inferior turbinate, if necessary combined with septum plasty, and conventional uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP), combined with tonsillectomy and radiofrequency therapy of the base of the tongue if appropriate. Pre- and postoperative clinical and polysomnographical checks were performed. RESULTS The mean apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was 39.2+/-19.7/h before surgery. Postoperatively a highly significant reduction of AHI to 16.5+/-9.9/h (p<0.0001) was seen. In 13 out of 25 patients (52%) the disease was cured (AHI<20 and 50% reduction). In 23 patients the AHI improved. In 15 patients AHI was reduced by more than 50%. CONCLUSION Multilevel surgery should be considered as an alternative for patients suffering from OSAS, especially in view of the poor long-term results in patients who receive CPAP therapy or are intolerant to CPAP.

Abstract
Review of epidemiological and clinical studies suggests that sleep disorders are disproportionately observed in specific headache diagnoses (eg, migraine, tension-type, cluster) and other nonspecific headache patterns (ie, chronic daily headache, "awakening" or morning headache). Interestingly, the sleep disorders associated with headache are of varied types, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), periodic limb movement disorder, circadian rhythm disorder, insomnia, and hypersomnia. Headache, particularly morning headache and chronic headache, may be consequent to, or aggravated by, a sleep disorder, and management of the sleep disorder may improve or resolve the headache. Sleep-disordered breathing is the best example of this relationship. Insomnia is the sleep disorder most often cited by clinical headache populations. Depression and anxiety are comorbid with both headache and sleep disorders (especially insomnia) and consideration of the full headache-sleep-affective symptom constellation may yield opportunities to maximize treatment. This paper reviews the comorbidity of headache and sleep disorders (including coexisting psychiatric symptoms where available). Clinical implications for headache evaluation are presented. Sleep screening strategies conducive to headache practice are described. Consideration of the spectrum of sleep-disordered breathing is encouraged in the headache population, including awareness of potential upper airway resistance syndrome in headache patients lacking traditional risk factors for OSA. Pharmacologic and behavioral sleep regulation strategies are offered that are also compatible with treatment of primary headache.

Abstract
Our nation's obesity problem has reached epidemic proportions and is only projected to worsen. The morbidly obese patient is at risk for experiencing a multitude of health-related conditions. Morbidly obese patients are presenting for surgery at an increasing rate, especially with the growing popularity of weight-loss surgery. Therefore the perianesthesia nurse has to remain informed of optimal care strategies for this sometimes challenging population. The obese patient presents with distinct respiratory care considerations of which the perianesthesia nurse must be knowledgeable. This review article will specifically focus on the respiratory care of the bariatric patient presenting for surgery.

Abstract
Continuous positive airway pressure devices (CPAP) used at night prevent apnea, hypoxia, and sleep disturbance. Although CPAP is more effective than placebo in improving sleepiness and quality of life measures in people with obstructive sleep apnea, patients often prefer a less-effective oral appliance. This article examines help-seeking experiences in support groups of individuals with sleep apnea who use CPAP devices. To understand patients' experiences and difficulties using CPAP, an urban medical center and a rural hospital shared data collected from 17 individuals with sleep apnea who use CPAP for treatment and attend a support group. Four related themes emerged including (a) becoming motivated to persist with help from the group, (b) accommodating to the device, (c) listening and telling stories to gain practical knowledge, and (d) implementing a support group as a caring community. Healthcare providers could recommend support groups on CPAP use while nurses guide discussion, provide technical information, and promote empowerment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous results showed the high effectiveness of our multi-level surgery concept based on the modified hyoid suspension for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study was aimed at evaluating the discomforts and side-effects of this surgical concept. METHODS Between November 2001 and June 2004, 102 patients with OSA and/or with laryngeal stenosis, who were all treated with a hyoid suspension in combination with surgery at the base of tongue, the soft palate or the nose, were included in the study. A questionnaire on discomfort and snoring was given to the patients. They were asked to answer the questions at the earliest 1 month after surgery. A reduction in snoring to a level which was tolerated by the bed-partner was regarded as success. RESULTS Half of the patients needed analgesics until the 14th day after surgery, complained dysphagia until day 20 and had problems with their speech until day 30. However, 84% indicated that they would undergo surgery again; 94% reported a successful reduction in their snoring. CONCLUSION Nearly all of the patients tolerated the discomforts and side-effects of our multi-level surgical concept. In combination with a reduction in snoring in 94% of all cases, this surgical concept was considered favorably by the patients.

Abstract
The relationship between changes in the position of the maxillary structures caused by maxillary protraction therapy and airway dimensions have not been investigated as comprehensively as the accompanying skeletal changes. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of rapid palatal expansion (RPE) used in conjunction with maxillary protraction headgear on the sagittal dimension of the airway. The treatment sample consisted of 19 Class III patients (12 girls, 7 boys) with a mean age of 10.51 +/- 1.15 years, presenting with maxillary retrognathism. A cap splint type rapid palatal expander that had hooks between the upper lateral and canine teeth was used intraorally, and a Petit type facemask device extraorally, for an average of 6.78 +/- 0.93 months. Pre- and post-treatment cephalometric radiographs were evaluated. The results of the study revealed that point A moved anteriorly. The palatal plane showed a counter-clockwise rotation matched by the clockwise rotation of the mandible and an accompanying decrease in SNB angle. The vertical parameters showed a statistically significant increase. The head was in a more extensive position in relation to the cervical vertebrae. The nasopharyngeal airway measurements (PNS-ad1, PNS-ad2) showed an increase of 2.71 +/- 3.35 and 3.03 +/- 2.37 mm, respectively. These results demonstrated that limited maxillary widening together with protraction of the maxilla, improve nasopharyngeal but not oropharyngeal airway dimensions in the short term.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by nocturnal collapsing of the upper airways. Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) ventilation is the gold standard in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Long-term compliance rates do not exceed more than 60 to 70%. Alternative multi-level surgeries are of interest, combining procedures at the level of the base of tongue and the soft palate in order to stabilize the airway. Preliminary results suggested the hyoid suspension as one part of the multi-level surgery concept to be of high effectiveness. Therefore this study investigated the outcome of the hyoid suspension and compared it with the CPAP therapy. METHODS Between March 2001 and February 2003, 66 patients with OSA were treated with a hyoid suspension in combination with surgeries at the base of tongue, the soft palate or the nose (always performed by the same surgeon). All patients underwent a pre- and postoperative polysomnography in the sleep lab. Daytime sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). Mean age was 52,1 years, the mean body mass index (BMI) was 28,04 kg/m(2). RESULTS The mean apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI) was 38,9121,10/h before operation and 19,25+/-19,64/h after operation (p<0,0001). More statistically significant changes were found for the arousal index, the oxygen saturation and the ESS (p<0,05). After surgery 57,6% of the subjects (38/66) were regarded as cured (reduction of AHI > or =50% and below 15/h). Another 21,2% (14/66) improved (reduction of AHI >20%). Altogether 78,8% of the patients were counted as responders. CONCLUSION Multi-level surgeries based on the hyoid suspension show the effectiveness of this concept. This surgical strategy could be equal to the CPAP mask, especially in cases of CPAP intolerance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transcutaneous electrical stimulation while asleep has been used to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), although without convincing results. Modern strategies consist of electrical muscle training for a number of weeks during wakefulness rather than stimulation during sleep. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess the practicability, safety, and efficacy of a new device, SilentOne (Imperpuls, Chemnitz, Germany). PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifteen patients with various degrees of OSA used transcutaneous submental electrical stimulation therapy for 4-5 weeks every day, day and night. A patient's diary recorded practicability and potential adverse events. Respiratory parameters were recorded by fully attended polysomnography in the sleep lab. Daytime sleepiness and snoring were assessed by questionnaires. RESULTS The apnea-hypopnea-index decreased from 29.2 before to 21.2 after therapy (P<0.05). Daytime sleepiness improved significantly (P<0.01) as did snoring (P<0.005). CONCLUSIONS. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation therapy using SilentOne proved to be safe, easy to use, and potent. However, therapy showed a limited cure rate.
