Summary

This trial will use DISE to examine the upper airway and determine if there are any obstructions in the airway that could cause problems during sleep. It will also use nasal pressure and CT/ultrasound imaging to help predict success of standard surgical interventions to correct any problems found.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who speak English and can consent to participate. It's specifically for those referred or scheduled for a DISE procedure, which examines the upper airway during sleep-like conditions, and are looking for alternatives to CPAP treatment for breathing issues during sleep.
What is being tested?
The study tests how well nasal pressure (CPAP) applied during DISE can identify functional causes of airflow blockage in sleep. It combines this with anatomic measurements from CT scans and submental ultrasound to predict success of standard surgical treatments.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves diagnostic procedures like DISE, CT scans, and ultrasounds rather than medications, side effects may include discomfort from the equipment used or anxiety related to undergoing the procedures.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Study objectives can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary study objectives
Identify the pathogenic determinants of airway obstruction at specific sites of pharyngeal collapse by characterizing upper airway pressure-flow/area relationships during DISE to predict responses to upper airway surgery
Secondary study objectives
Compare positive airway pressure levels obtained from natural sleep to those during DISE
Complement videoendoscopic DISE findings with synchronous ultrasound imaging
Correlation of anatomic measurements from computerized tomography (CT) scans to physiologic findings from DISE
