Abstract: | ABSTRACT newlineINTRODUCTION : newline Obstructive sleep apnea is defined by recurrent bouts of partial newlineand total airway blockages during sleep, as well as repetitive apneas and newlinehypopneas. The sleep apnea is characterized by sporadic total and partial newlineairway collapse, which leads to frequent episodes of apnea and hypopnea. newlineOropharyngeal exercise are a brand new, non- invasive and cost effective newlinetreatment option for mild to moderate obstructive sleep apnea. It is more newlinephysiological, has long lasting effects and functions by making the newlinepharyngeal muscles more toned. Exercise for the oropharynx muscles, which newlinealso include the tongue, soft palate and facial muscles were adapted from newlinespeech- language pathology. The following tasks were mandated for patients newlineto complete by single speech pathologist. In that a patient could assist them. newlineTwo times a day, the patients received a 20 minutes training session that newlineincluded all of the activities. newlineSTATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM : newline Effectiveness of oropharyngeal exercises on snoring, daytime newlineSleepiness and Anthropometric measurement Among Adults with newlineObstructive Sleep Apnea. newlineOBJECTIVES: newline1. To assess the level of Snoring, daytime sleepiness And Anthropometric newlinemeasurement Among Adults with obstructive sleep apnea. newline2. To determine the effectiveness of oropharyngeal exercise on Snoring, newlinedaytime sleepiness and Anthropometric Measurement among adults with newlineobstructive sleep apnea within experimental group. newline3. To compare the posttest level of Snoring, daytime sleepiness and newlineAnthropometric measurement between the experimental group and control newlinegroup among adults with Obstructive sleep apnea. newline4. To associate the post-test level of snoring, daytime sleepiness and newlineanthropometric measurement with demographic variables among newlineexperimental group. newlineRESEARCH METHODOLOGY: newline Quasi- experimental research design was adopted for this study. An newlineauthorized setting permission was obtained from Saveetha Medical College newlineand Hospital, Chennai. |
