Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To realize the application of nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) and Epworth sleep score (ESS) before and after nasal cavity ventilation expansion techniques.
METHOD:Forty-two OSAHS patients with nasal obstructive symptoms were diagnosed by clinical symptoms and polysomnography. Nasal cavity ventilation expansion technique was performed. Before and after the surgery, the NOSE and ESS were used to compare the difference. Postoperative data were obtained at least 3 months later.
RESULT:Compared the data before and after operation, the NOSE and ESS were significantly decreased respectively (P<0. 05), there is no significant difference between 3 groups (P>0. 05).
CONCLUSION:The result suggest that OSAHS patients taking nasal cavity ventilation expansion operations showed improvement in severity of nasal obstructive symptoms and daily sleepy.
