Sleep Apnea

Videos Contain Graphic Surgical Content

Sleep Apnea affects about 12 million adults in the United States. It is manifested by multiple pauses in breathing while asleep, poor sleep quality, and daytime sleepiness. If untreated, patients are at increased risk for hypertension, heart attack, stroke, arrythmias, and driving accidents. Adults often demonstrate multiple levels of obstruction when examined and may benefit from nasal and throat surgery such as septoplasty, polypectomy, turbinate reduction, tonsillectomy, and soft palate/uvula reduction based on clinical evaluation. Children with sleep apnea can present with loud snoring, sleep deprivation, bed wetting, attention deficit, cranky behavior, slowed growth, poor concentration at school, and abnormal facial or dental development. The majority of these kids have large tonsils and adenoid, AND respond very well to a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy.
