Thirty-three patients with the sleep apnea syndrome were operated upon by uvulopalatopharyngoplasty and clinical and multiple sleep recording findings compared at follow up after 3 months. No exact correlation was noted between the clinical condition and recordings during sleep. The only predictive criterion for the result of this operation is the preoperative weight, and this procedure is proposed as a routine treatment as long as no better method exists to determine the obstructive site. Therapy of the sleep apnea syndrome is described.
33例睡眠呼吸暂停综合征患者接受了悬雍垂腭咽成形术，并在术后3个月的随访中对临床和多次睡眠记录结果进行了比较。睡眠期间的临床状况与记录之间未发现确切关联。该手术结果的唯一预测标准是术前体重，并且只要没有更好的方法来确定阻塞部位，就建议将此手术作为常规治疗方法。文中描述了睡眠呼吸暂停综合征的治疗方法。
