Abstract:
To apply more precise upper airway modeling and computer fluid dynamic technology, and simulate the upper airways of the fluid velocity, flow field distribution and pressure changes on 1 case of OSAHS patients before and after surgery. At home and abroad, computer fluid dynamic has been applied to research on human airway and predict curative effect before and after operation, but the study of the whole upper airway fluid physics parameter is less within normal people and sick people, more the lack of large sample research. The application of this technology can lay the foundation to establish normal people and sick people upper airways database, formulate normative operation and research process, the quantitative domestic normal population and pathological airway blocking criteria of each plane, develop a handling the precision of simulation software and the curative effect of surgical or medical treatment evaluation system, and open up the new train of thought of OSAHS patients diagnosis and treatment.
