Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the correlation of polysomnography parameters and CT measurements in upper airway of mild and severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients before and after uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP).
METHOD:Having PSG detection and spiral computed tomograph scan for 30 mild and severe OSAHS patients both before and after UPPP operation, compare the morphology change of upper airway on CT measurements, use pearson correlation analysis to analysis the correlation between the minimum cross-sectional area, left and right diameter, anteroposterior diameter in upper airway and apnea hypopnea index (AHI).
RESULT:The difference of the minimum cross-sectional area, left and right diameter, anteroposterior diameter in upper airway before and after UPPP operation was significant. The minimum cross-sectional area, left and right diameter was negatively correlated with AHI; Left and right diameter was not correlated with AHI.
CONCLUSION:The minimum cross-sectional area, left and right diameter, anteroposterior diameter after operation is bigger than before operation. The minimum cross-sectional area, left and right diameter is negatively correlated with AHI.
