Infants with Pierre-Robin sequence (PRS) may suffer severe upper airway obstruction resulting in hypoxemia that is difficult to treat. We are currently evaluating a new therapeutic approach involving an oral appliance that widens the pharynx by pulling the base of the tongue forward using a preepiglottic baton. Here we present a patient treated with this device who showed a decrease in his desaturation index from 50 to < 1.
患有皮埃尔-罗宾序列征（PRS）的婴儿可能会遭受严重的上呼吸道阻塞，导致难以治疗的低氧血症。我们目前正在评估一种新的治疗方法，该方法涉及一种口腔矫治器，它通过会厌前棒将舌根向前拉来拓宽咽部。在此，我们展示一位接受该装置治疗的患者，其去饱和指数从50降至<1。
