Titel:: Advanced titration to treat a floppy epiglottis in selective upper airway stimulation.
Abstract:: The following report presents a case of a patient with high residual apnea-hypopnea index at 6 months following implantation of an upper airway stimulation device who improved significantly after advanced titration via drug-induced sedated endoscopy by changing the electrode configuration for stimulation from bipolar to monopolar. This case demonstrates the utility of postsurgical advanced titration to optimize programming settings for improved clinical outcomes. Laryngoscope, 126:S22-S24, 2016.
