Systematic review of validated parent-reported questionnaires assessing swallowing dysfunction in otherwise healthy infants and toddlersJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 50 Số 1 - Trang 1-8 - 2021

There has been increasing interest in the management of oropharyngeal swallowing
dysfunction (SwD). Its prevalence, particularly in otherwise healthy infants and
toddlers (OHITs), is underappreciated. As the standard diagnostic tests are
either invasive or scarce, valid parent-reported outcome (PRO) questionnaires
could play a pivotal role in the understanding and managing SwD in this group.

What is the optimal outcome after endoscopic sinus surgery in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis? A consultation of Canadian expertsJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 50 - Trang 1-10 - 2021

Many experts feel that in the absence of well-defined goals for success, they
have an easier time identifying failure. As success ought to not be defined only
by absence of failure, we aimed to define optimal outcomes for endoscopic sinus
surgery (ESS) in chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) by obtaining expert surgeon
perspectives. A total of 12 surgeons participated in this targeted consultation.

Povidone-iodine solution as SARS-CoV-2 prophylaxis for procedures of the upper aerodigestive tract a theoretical frameworkJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 49 - Trang 1-4 - 2020

The COVID-19 pandemic has raised concerns of inadvertent SARS-CoV-2 transmission
to healthcare workers during routine procedures of the aerodigestive tract in
asymptomatic COVID-19 patients. Current efforts to mitigate this risk focus on
Personal Protective Equipment, including high-efficiency filtration as well as
other measures. Because the reservoir for SARS-CoV-2 shedding is in the
nasopharynx... hiện toàn bộ

The role of artificial intelligence in the treatment of obstructive sleep apneaJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 52 - Trang 1-6 - 2023
Hannah L. Brennan, Simon D. Kirby
The first-line and most common treatment for obstructive sleep apnea is nasal
continuous positive airway pressure, which serves as a pneumatic splint to
stabilize the upper airway and is effective when used with appropriate
adherence. Continuous positive airway pressure compliance rates remain
significantly low despite machine improvements and compliance intervention.

Comparison of the mechanical properties of different skin sites for auricular and nasal reconstructionJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 46 - Trang 1-6 - 2017

Autologous and synthetic nasal and auricular frameworks require skin coverage.
The surgeon’s decides on the appropriate skin coverage for reconstruction based
on colour matching, subcutaneous tissue thickness, expertise and experience. One
of the major complications of placing subcutaneous implants is the risk of
extrusion (migration through the skin) and infection. However, knowledge of
lessening... hiện toàn bộ
Three-dimensional morphological changes of the temporomandibular joint and functional effects after mandibulotomyJournal of Otolaryngology - Head & Neck Surgery - Tập 46 - Trang 1-14 - 2017

The midline and paramedian mandibulotomy are surgical procedures that divide the
mandibular bone into two halves and disconnects the condylar heads of the TMJ
from each other. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the
temporomandibular joint (TMJ) functional and morphological changes after
mandibulotomy using a reconstructed 3D models of the TMJ. Sixteen adult patients
diagnosed with oral and... hiện toàn bộ
