Positive Airway Pressure Advantages Over Sleep Apnea Surgeries
- Cheaper.
- Much higher success rates for logical reasons.
- Safer. No postoperative/ anesthetic risks or complications.
- Benefits are immediate. Patients aren't left at risk of complications pending healing such as can occur even if surgeries are fully effective -(which they frequently are not).
- CPAP AND Bi-Level PAP Units can be tried on a rental basis and returned if they don't "Work Out". Patients cannot "return surgeries" when they find they aren't happy with the results!
In nearly all cases, sleep apnea can be managed without surgery.
If you have undergone sleep testing but were left without treatment, do not simply proceed with soft palate surgeries, given their high failure and relapse rates.
