  1. 16. Nasal obstruction – impact on insomnia symptoms and sleep-disordered breathing

    Författare :Caroline Bengtsson; Eva Lindberg; Lars Jonsson; Jenny Theorell-Haglöw; Søren Berg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chronic rhinosinusitis; CRS; nasal obstruction; sleep; sleep apnoea.; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Nasal obstruction is very common in the general population, but the role of nasal obstruction in sleep quality is not clear. Nasal obstruction is also prevalent in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and may contribute to poor adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Physical Activity and Eating Behaviour Changes in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

    Författare :Helena Igelström; Pernilla Åsenlöf; Margareta Emtner; Eva Lindberg; Anders Broström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Obstructive sleep apnea; physical activity; eating behaviour; sedentary time; health behaviour change; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aimed at developing and evaluating a tailored behavioural sleep medicine intervention for enhanced physical activity and healthy eating in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) and overweight.Participants with moderate or severe OSAS (apnea-hypopnea index ≥15) and obesity (Studies I-II) or overweight (Studies III-IV), treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (Studies I-II) or admitted to CPAP treatment (Studies III-IV), were recruited from the sleep clinic at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden.

  3. 18. Perioperative management and molecular patterns in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

    Författare :Eva Christensson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder, both in the general and surgical population. While there is a steadily increased awareness of the disorder both in the society as a whole and within health care, unfortunately, most individuals with OSA still go undiagnosed. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Newborn respiratory support using distending pressure : the effect of interfaces and system design on performance and outcome

    Författare :Sonja Baldursdottir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Preterm infants often require respiratory support after birth due to lung immaturity. The preferred method of providing respiratory support to breathing infants in respiratory distress is non-invasively with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). LÄS MER

  5. 20. Evaluation of surgical methods for sleep apnea and snoring

    Författare :Thorbjörn Holmlund; Diana Berggren; Eva Levring Jäghagen; Karl Franklin; Sören Berg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sleep apnea syndromes; adverse effects; mortality; radiofrequency; sham surgery; randomized controlled trial; daytime sleepiness; snoring; tonsillar hypertrophy; tonsillectomy; cytoskeleton; desmin; dystrophin; muscle fiber; palatopharyngeus; soft palate; uvula.; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Snoring and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are both common disorders with a number of negative health effects. The safety and efficacy of treating snoring and OSA surgically have been questioned and there has been a lack of studies in the field. LÄS MER
