Nasal vs Oral Breathing in Drug Induced Sleep vs Natural Sleep
The Impact of Nasal Versus Oral Breathing on Measures of Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy
About This Trial
This project will provide important new information regarding (1) the relationship between route of breathing and airway collapsibility and (2) whether route of breathing during DISE (Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy) is representative of natural sleep.
