Abstract：Recognizing upper airway obstruction and stenosis is critical to determine the subsequent treatment options in patients with obstructive sleep apnea(OSA).Drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE)is a 3D visual evaluation technology for the anatomical structure of the upper respiratory tract of OSA patients during"sleeping"state after being anesthetized.The dynamic situation of upper respiratory tract obstruction and collapse can be observed safely and quickly through endoscopy,which provides important reference for formulating surgical methods and positive airway pressure(PAP)intervention treatments.With the assistance of polysomnography(PSG),DISE plays an important role in optimizing individualized treatment plans for OSA.The present article introduces the technical operating points of PSG-assisted drug-induced sleep endoscopic positive airway pressure titration.
