The definitive resource on the innovative use of DISE for
obstructive sleep apnea Obstructive sleep apnea is the most
prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, impacting an estimated
1.36 billion people worldwide. In the past, OSA was almost
exclusively treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
(CPAP), however, dynamic assessment of upper airway obstruction
with Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) has been instrumental in
developing efficacious alternatives. Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy:
Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications by Nico de Vries, Ottavio
Piccin, Olivier Vanderveken, and Claudio Vicini is the first
textbook on DISE written by world-renowned sleep medicine pioneers.
Twenty-four chapters feature contributions from an impressive group
of multidisciplinary international experts. Foundational chapters
encompass indications, contraindications, informed consent,
organization and logistics, patient preparation, and drugs used in
DISE. Subsequent chapters focus on treatment outcomes, the role of
DISE in therapeutic decision making and upper airway stimulation,
pediatric sleep endoscopy, craniofacial syndromes, advanced
techniques, and more. Key Highlights Comprehensive video library
highlights common and rare DISE findings A full spectrum of sleep
disordered breathing and OSA topics, from historic to future
perspectives Insightful clinical pearls on preventing errors and
managing complications including concentric and epiglottis collapse
Discussion of controversial DISE applications including oral
appliances and positional and combination therapies This unique
book is essential reading for otolaryngology residents, fellows,
and surgeons. Clinicians in other specialties involved in sleep
medicine will also benefit from this reference, including
pulmonologists, neurologists, neurophysiologists, maxillofacial
surgeons, and anesthesiologists. This book includes complimentary
access to a digital copy on https://medone.thieme.com.
