Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Completely updated, this volume is a practical, authoritative guide to the diagnosis and management of sleep-related breathing disorders. This Third Edition provides a more comprehensive treatment approach, focusing on surgical treatment but recognizing the growing importance of medical management of snoring/sleep disorders. Noted experts in the fields of otolaryngology, head and neck surgery, pulmonology, and sleep medicine examine the pathophysiology of these disorders, their clinical presentations in adults and children, the diagnostic workup, and the latest and most effective drugs, devices, oral appliances, and surgical procedures. An in-depth discussion of patient selection and treatment decisions is also included. Book News Annotation:US otolaryngologists and related researchers and practitioners
explain to their colleagues the physiology of sleep and respiration,
and the health consequences of obstructive sleep apnea, a recently
recognized syndrome connecting snoring and sleeping disorder that
originates in the air passages of the head and neck—the anatomical
domain of otolaryngology. They also discuss the diagnosis and
surgical and medical management of sleep and breathing disorders. The
1987 first edition, published by Raven Press in New York, was based
on an international conference in Florida in May 1985. No date is
mentioned for the second.
