What is CPAP therapy
The essence of the trouser therapy (abbreviation of the English words Continuous
POSITIVE AIRWAY PRESSURE - constant positive pressure
in respiratory tract) lies in a small «Inflatable» respiratory
ways during sleep, which prevents the decay of soft tissues of pharynges
and eliminates the main mechanism for the development of snoring.
Treatment
is carried out using a small compressor that serves constant
Air flow under a certain pressure in the respiratory tract through
Flexible tube and hermetic nasal mask.
Selection procedure
Therapeutic pressure is carried out in sleep laboratories. This
The indicator remains fairly stable for months and years,
If a person does not significantly change body weight. Subsequently, the patient
Independently uses the device at home.
IN
Heavy cases apparatus need to use every night. With more
The easiest course of the disease is possible periodic application of the device
(4-5 times a week).
Treatment practically does not give side
Effects. Cancel hardware treatment (even if it was conducted
several years) does not entail any complications, except
gradual return of source symptoms. Application application
does not cure a person, but provides a normal sleep, improvement
Qualities of life and prevention of serious complications. Even with strong
snore after a few days a person may feel significant
Improving well-being.
What are intrarocratic devices for the treatment of snoring
Outdoor devices to prevent snore raise
The tone of the muscles of the throat, which prevents their vibration and the occurrence of snoring.
There are several types of intrarocratic devices to prevent snore.
Some intrarocrats
Devices (for example, «Extra-Laura») by type remotely resemble
Conventional Children's Pacific and Consist of a Bow-shaped Petal
language and fixing rims that protect from swallowing or
Dropping from mouth. Therapeutic effect of the device is
In the reflex irritation of the muscles of the language and pharynx, which increases the tone
Sky, preventing his vibration, and eliminates snoring. The device has
the greatest effect in individuals without pronounced obesity, with uncomplicated
snore and free breathing through the nose. The main disadvantage of this
fixtures is a possible degradation of sleep quality due to availability
foreign bodies in the mouth.
There are also modeled
Outdoor devices that shift forward the lower jaw,
What increases the front-rear size of the respiratory tract and,
Accordingly, reduces the snoring and severity of obstructive apnea syndrome
Sleep (SAAS). These devices are made of a special thermolabile
Materials that are in heated form are installed on the upper jaw
(as a ruined by the boxer), after which the patient closes his mouth with advanced
Lower jaw forward. The billet is frozen and when re
use provides lower jaw extension.
Such devices
have a good effect with uncomplicated snoring, lungs and moderate
Soas forms, and especially in patients with bite impairment (offset
lower jaw). The main disadvantages of the simulated devices
is their high cost (from 100 to 300 US dollars).
What is laser plastic and chicoplasty. Somnoplastics
Laser plastic (or cryoplastic) The sky is used to eliminate the defects of the sky and tongue leading to the snore.
Medical
The effect of these methods is the result of the thermal
Or cold burn slim mucosa sheath. Laser or
The cryoapplizer is applied linear or point burns in the area
Soft Sky and Sky Tag, which causes them inflammation. At
tissue healing is noted to reduce the volume and seal of the sky that
Reduces its vibration and sound phenomenon of snoring.
Technically
The procedure is quite simple and is carried out in an outpatient basis.
However, the patient is experiencing significant pain resembling
Strong angina. The procedure can be repeated 1-3 times at intervals
2-3 weeks before reaching the desired effect.
Cryoplastic
different from laser plastic lesser traumatic
and soreness, but its effect on the decrease in the volume of fabric
somewhat lower.
Somnoplastics - treatment of snoring with
Radio frequency energy in which low levels are used
temperatures and power (by this it differs from the laser at which
High levels of temperature and power) are used). When exposed
Laser is evaporation of the fabric, on the surface of the mucous membrane
the scar is formed, with the method of somnoplasty, only warming up the fabric without
evaporation, scar is formed in. Percentage of improvement
treatment of snoring method of sompacelasty 85-90%. Treatment is carried out
In the outpatient conditions, under local anesthesia, takes 25-30 minutes.
On average, 2-3 sessions with intervals 2 months.
Plastics
Effective with uncomplicated snoring and light-shaped syndrome
obstructive sleep apnea (SAAS), in patients with lowly located
Soft heaven and elongated sky. With moderate and heavy
Soas forms, especially in patients with obesity, data efficiency
Methods low.
