Objective:
Substantiation of optimization of laser radiation parameters when performing surgery on the soft palate to improve the results of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
Material And Methods:
Based on the experience of performing laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty in 309 patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, a rational choice of parameters of laser radiation used during the operation is justified.
Results:
Optimization of laser radiation parameters during laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty allowed to improve the positive results of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in 98.4% of cases (304 out of 309 operated patients).
Conclusion:
Optimization of laser radiation parameters when performing laser sculptural uvulopalatoplasty increases the effectiveness of treatment of patients with ronchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
