Research paper thumbnail of Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure as a Preferred Airway Management During IV Sedation of Obese Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Undergoing Functional Luminal Imaging Probe Panometry

This is an FDA-approved measurement tool utilized to both diagnose and measure various upper gastrointestinal disorders. While patients are sedated during FLIP panometry, significant respiratory variations can affect the quality of FLIP panometry results.Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)can be utilized to prevent intraoperative or postoperative hypoxia in obese patients as well as those with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).In this retrospective chart review, we compared obese patients with a diagnosis of OSA who underwent FLIP panometry utilizing nasal CPAP as airway management against a group who underwent the same procedure with a nasal cannula to evaluate the incidence of hypoxia, hypercapnia, variation in cardiovascular dynamics, and the quality of FLIP panometry readings.
