Abstract:
Objective To measure the upper airway of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome by 256 slice spiril CT, and to access the airway obstruction plane with the airway plane data in OSAHS patients.Through these measurements, we can provide assistance for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods This study randomly selected 178 patients diagnosed with OSAHS and 110 cases non-snoring healthy people as the control group by the Philips 256 slice CT.Under the nasopharyngeal area, velopharyngeal area, glossopharyngeal area, epiglottis area, we measured the cross-sectional area and volume of the narrowest plane in the two groups of quiet respiration and Müller status.Results The OSAHS group underwent quiet respiration and Müller status during CT scanning, and the two states about epiglottis area in cross-sectional area and volume had no significant difference, Other groups had differences between the parameters.There was a significant difference in the volume about velopharyngeal area and glossopharyngeal area. In the control group undergoing quiet respiration and Müller status during CT scanning, there was difference in velopharyngeal cross-sectional area.Other parameters had no significant difference.Conclusions The obstruction plate of OSAHS patients with 256-slice spiril CT measurement is mostly in the velopharyngeal area and glossopharyngeal area. The volume measurement of upper airway by CT can predict airway obstruction plate in patients with OSAHS.
