Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To evaluate the effect of oral appliance (OA) treatment on upper-airway ventilation conditions in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) improved from 23.1 to 10.1 events/h after OA treatment. On CFD analysis, airway velocity decreased at the retropalatal and epiglottis-tip levels, while airway pressure decreased at the retropalatal, uvular-tip, and epiglottis-tip levels. The AHI of patients with OSA before OA treatment was correlated with airway pressure at the epiglottis-tip level. Treatment with OA improved the ventilation conditions of the pharyngeal airway and AHI. Results of CFD analysis of airway pressure and airflow velocity helped determine the severity and ventilatory impairment site of OSA, respectively.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究では機能的要因によって変動する睡眠中の気道狭窄部位を、いびき音から継時的に特定できるようにする点が学術的独自性である。また、アデノイド・口蓋扁桃摘出術、MMAなどにより、形態的に改善させる事を中心に行われてきたOSA治療に、これまで用いられる事がなかった機能的な治療方法が小児OSAに対して有効である事を客観的に示すところである。
