Efficacy and Stability of Dexmedetomidine Sedation Compared to Propofol Sedation in the Drug Induced Sleep Endoscopy

Summary

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome affect up 12% in adult population. It is associated with an increase rate of hypertension, metabolic syndrome, depression and adverse cardiovascular events. The evaluation of upper airway obstruction is vital to obtain site-specific treatment. Drug Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE) is a routinely exam which allows the direct observation of the upper airway during sedative induced sleep. Propofol and Dexmedetomidine are sedatives approved for all diagnostic examinations that required sedation.
