Abstract

This study investigated the dynamics of the upper airway at retropalatal and retroglossal sites during wakefulness and sleep by evaluating the effective compliance (EC) of each site and its correlation with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) using novel semiautomated image processing. AHI correlated significantly with retroglossal EC during sleep and change of retroglossal EC from wake to sleep. The results suggest EC as a promising noninvasive diagnostic marker for estimating the mechanical properties of various upper airway regions in patients with OSAS.
