Shifting and reducing breathing disturbance in patients with very severe obstructive sleep apnea by modified Z-palatoplasty with one-layer closure in one-stage multilevel surgery

Abstract Very severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 60 events/h differs in several areas from OSA with other severities, including having a low-level daytime partial pressure of oxygen and residual on-CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) AHIs greater than 20/h....
