Brief Summary:
Sleep is an important activity and snoring is the most often reported complaint Snoring is also very common in the general population Moreover snoring can negatively impact bed companions quality of sleep daytime sleepiness strain of relationships social embarrassment and disturb mental health that in the end will reduce quality of life Anatomical risk factors are believed to be one of major contributors to upper airway constriction during sleep Treatment for this condition include lifestyle modifications such as quitting alcohol or losing weight positional therapy mandibular advancement devices upper airway surgery and nasal continuous positive airway pressure Myofunctional therapy MT as an adjunctive or alternative therapy can lower Apnea-Hypopnea Index in obstructive sleep apnea patients with pharyngeal dilator muscle collapse Although these may be beneficial the impact of MT on retropalatal narrowing as one of the snoring causes needs to be better established This study was done to find out the impact of MT in people with snoring who have a collapsed pharynx that is located by a Flexible nasolaryngoscopy
Detailed Description:
Sleep is an important activity it makes up one-third of a persons life and in sleep medicine clinics snoring is the most often reported complaint Snoring is also very common in the general population Studies indicate that women have a higher incidence of this condition above 65 years increasing after menopause while men experience it between 45 and 64 years of age While snoring may be a predictor of the more serious condition of obstructive sleep apnea primary snoring is common Moreover snoring can negatively impact bed companions quality of sleep daytime sleepiness strain of relationships social embarrassment and disturb mental health that in the end will reduce quality of life Anatomical risk factors are believed to be one of major contributors to upper airway constriction during sleep Pharyngeal narrowing can be facilitated by anatomic characteristics such as a large neck circumference soft tissue bone or arteries Flexible nasolaryngoscopy FN is an alternative diagnosis to direct viewing of the airway from the nasal cavity to the larynx area Aside from being easier to perform and more affordable a complete examination of the airway can identify the location of the pharyngeal narrowing that causes obstruction more specifically Treatment for this condition include lifestyle modifications such as quitting alcohol or losing weight positional therapy mandibular advancement devices upper airway surgery and nasal continuous positive airway pressure are among the treatments for treating snoring Myofunctional therapy MT as an adjunctive or alternative therapy can lower Apnea-Hypopnea Index in obstructive sleep apnea patients with pharyngeal dilator muscle collapse The exercises are non-invasive cost-effective and have physiological characteristics Improvement in upper airway obstruction is supported by improvements in upper airway muscle tone Although these may be beneficial the impact of MT on retropalatal narrowing as one of the snoring causes needs to be better established This study was done to find out the impact of MT in people with snoring who have a collapsed pharynx that is located by a FN
