We intend to study, in depth, the quantitative and qualitative properties of nasal respiration in sleep-disordered breathing and sleep apnea and its relation to (CPAP) treatment with the final goal of improving patient outcome. To do this we will temporarily alter patients' nasal airflow during monitored sleep to lower CPAP air pressure, making CPAP treatment more acceptable to the patient. Additionally we plan to implement highly advanced computerized modelling in collaboration with the OSASMOD research consortium at St. Olavs Hospital/NTNU and SINTEF to predict the results of our alterations and ultimately, to use these predictions to improve both the planning and the outcomes of nasal surgery.
