Journal ArticleDOI
Upper-Airway Collapsibility and Loop Gain Predict the Response to Oral Appliance Therapy in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Bradley A. Edwards,Christopher Andara,Shane A. Landry,Scott A. Sands,Simon A. Joosten,Robert L. Owens,David P. White,Garun S. Hamilton,Andrew Wellman +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that OA therapy improves the upper-airway collapsibility under passive and active conditions and a greater response to therapy occurred in those patients with a mild anatomic compromise and a lower loop gain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supine position related obstructive sleep apnea in adults: Pathogenesis and treatment
Simon A. Joosten,Simon A. Joosten,Denise M. O'Driscoll,Philip J. Berger,Garun S. Hamilton,Garun S. Hamilton +5 more
TL;DR: Why the supine position so favors upper airway collapse is explained, why the treatment of supine related OSA remains largely ignored in major clinical guidelines is presented and the available data on the management of patients with supinerelated OSA is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Loop Gain Predicts the Response to Upper Airway Surgery in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Simon A. Joosten,Paul Leong,Shane A. Landry,Scott A. Sands,Philip I. Terrill,D. Mann,Anthony Turton,Jhanavi Rangaswamy,Christopher Andara,Glen Burgess,Darren Mansfield,Garun S. Hamilton,Garun S. Hamilton,Bradley A. Edwards +13 more
TL;DR: This study provides proof-of-principle that upper airway surgery most effectively resolves OSA in patients with lower LG, and remains a significant predictor of surgical success after controlling for covariates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenotypes of patients with mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnoea as confirmed by cluster analysis.
Simon A. Joosten,Kais Hamza,Scott A. Sands,Scott A. Sands,Anthony Turton,Philip J. Berger,Garun S. Hamilton,Garun S. Hamilton +7 more
TL;DR: This study comprehensively describes the pattern of OSA phenotypes through the use of cluster analysis techniques and suggests that mild‐moderate OSA can be categorized into discreet disease phenotypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Body Position on Physiological Factors that Contribute to Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Simon A. Joosten,Bradley A. Edwards,Andrew Wellman,Anthony Turton,Elizabeth M. Skuza,Philip J. Berger,Garun S. Hamilton +6 more
TL;DR: Lateral positioning significantly improves passive airway anatomy/collapsibility (passive V0, pharyngeal critical closing pressure), the ability of the airway to stiffen and dilate (active V0), and the awake functional residual capacity without improving loop gain or arousal threshold.
