The Study of Clinical Application of Nasal-CPAP for Airway Management in Intraveneous Sedation for Dental Treatment

鼻持续气道正压通气用于帮助睡眠呼吸暂停综合征患者在睡前进行气道管理。目前的研究在临床牙科中使用了鼻CPAP沿着静脉镇静，这项研究还检查了在这种镇静过程中改善气道通畅性的临床有效性。结果表明，使用镇静剂和鼻CPAP显著增加SpO2和显着降低PtcCO2在手术中的患者与相同的镇静深度时，鼻CPAP不使用。因此，使用鼻CPAP沿着IV镇静并不妨碍镇静。结果还表明，鼻CPAP的使用有助于维持或改善患者在手术过程中的气道通畅性，在一个非侵入性的方式。

Nasal CPAP is used to help with airway management in patients with sleep apnea syndrome at bedtime. The current study used nasal CPAP along with IV sedation in clinical dentistry, and this study also examined the clinical effectiveness of improved airway patency during this sedation. Results indicated that use of sedation and nasal CPAP significantly increased SpO2 and significantly decreased PtcCO2 in patients during surgery with the same depth of sedation as when nasal CPAP was not used. Thus, use of nasal CPAP along with IV sedation did not hamper that sedation. Results also suggested that use of nasal CPAP helped to maintain or improve airway patency in patients during surgery in a non-invasive manner.
