Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive overview of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) that is accessible to patients. OSA can have a significant and progressive impact on the lives of those who suffer from daytime sleepiness, but it is often not considered. Moreover, individuals with the condition are often unaware of it as it affects them during sleep. The book provides knowledge on appropriate pathways for investigation and treatment. The organization and clarity of the writing make it easy for readers who want quick information on diagnosis, symptoms, treatment, and more. The thorough history section covering anatomical evolution, the history of medicine, and modern-day medical and surgical advances will satisfy curious readers. Ample original hand-drawn diagrams increase the readability and approachability of the work, making pathophysiology and surgical procedures clear and accessible. The book also includes links and descriptions of up-to-date procedures, diagnostic techniques, and devices, guiding readers confidently towards other resources beyond the book for further information. Given its features, this guide will appeal also to general practitioners, ENT students, and OSA specialists.

The following chapters address primary forms of disease presentation in each medical field, with the latest evidence. Given its characteristics, the book will enable the reader to adopt a broad strategy for evaluating and managing OSA patients.

Abstract

Considéré à tort comme un simple désagrément social, familial ou conjugal, le ronflement est un symptôme qui peut révéler des maladies potentiellement graves, tels que le syndrome d'apnées du sommeil ou le syndrome de haute résistance des voies aérodigestives supérieures pouvant conduire à de sévères morbidités cardiovasculaires et neuropsychiques. Face à ce grave problème de santé publique, le médecin généraliste doit savoir diagnostiquer, dès la première consultation, un ronfleur simple d'un ronfleur en danger vital afin de l'orienter éventuellement vers le spécialiste qui déterminera la prise en charge adaptée. De l'enfant au sujet âgé, cet ouvrage donne toutes les clés pour mener un examen clinique et un interrogatoire précis conduisant au bon diagnostic. Après un rappel des aspects fondamentaux du ronflement, des examens cliniques et complémentaires, cet abrégé précise les stratégies thérapeutiques à la disposition du praticien (chirurgie, traitement par ventilation, traitement par orthèse, etc.).

Abstract

As technology advances, practicing or training otolaryngologists register in educational courses to refresh their surgical skills and stay abreast of these changes. While information is becoming available in several journals, there is a definite need for a single surgical atlas-like book that contains precise descriptions of the surgical techniques used in rhinology and sleep apnea surgery. Each chapter was written by surgeons with extensive experience in each topic who have already published on the specific procedure described. Each chapter contains diagrammatic or illustrative descriptions of surgical techniques and provides tips and pearls of wisdom to avoid complications when the procedures are performed. This comprehensive work of surgical information serves as a valuable resource for otolaryngologists in training to augment their surgical education and for practicing otolaryngologists as a review source to best approach the surgical pathologies they encounter in their practice of rhinology and treatment of sleep apnea.
