Role of rhinomanometry in the prediction of therapeutic positive airway pressure for obstructive sleep apnea

Role of rhinomanometry in the prediction of therapeutic positive airway pressure for obstructive sleep apnea

Abstract Background This study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between nasal resistance in different posture and optimal positive airway pressure (PAP) level. Other potential factors were also assessed for possible influence on PAP pressure. Methods Forty- three patients diagnosed with ob...
