Feasibility Study of Sleep Endoscopy Under Hypnosis in a Sleep Center

Feasibility Study of Sleep Endoscopy Under Hypnosis in a Sleep Center

It is proposed to induce in a obstructive sleep apnea syndrome patient, a hypnotic trance leading to intense muscle relaxation, capable of reproducing in the upper airways (VAS) the muscle relaxation observed in sleep, at the origin of obstructive apnea and snoring. The collapsibility type obtained, classified according to Kezirian, will allow specific management by OAM in the event of predominant anteroposterior stenosis. There are no risks fort the patient. The Drug Induce Sleep endoscopy (DISE) is a fibroscopy of upper aerodigestive tract.
