The Velum, Oropharynx, Tongue base and Epiglottis (VOTE) classification on drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) is used widely for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome, though research into comparative physical examinations with VOTE on DISE is still limited. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the findings of physical examinations and DISE in patients with OSA. Fifty-five patients with OSA were enrolled in this retrospective study. All of the patients received clinical explorations including a Brodsky classification, a modified Mallampati score (MMS), a modified Friedman’s staging system, and a Muller’s test. Drug-induced sleep endoscopy was further evaluated in the operating room. There were significant relationships between Brodsky classification, modified Friedman’s staging system, Muller’s test and oropharynx collapse during DISE (p < 0.05). Brodsky classification, MMS, modified Friedman’s staging system and retropalatal lateral-to-lateral (L–L) collapse of Muller’s test were significantly correlated with VOTE count (p < 0.05). The concordance between VOTE under DISE and Brodsky classification or modified Friedman’s staging system was moderate. In contrast, the concordance between VOTE under DISE and MMS or Muller’s test was slight. The study revealed that Brodsky classification and Friedman staging had a significant relationship with DISE on the velum and oropharynx, but the level of tongue base is uncertain between DISE and MMS. Correlation of awake evaluation of tongue base is still not correlated to the DISE findings. Pre-treatment evaluation of DISE is still warranted.

The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of propofol with dexmedetomidine in patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS) undergoing drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE). The 88 patients diagnosed with SAHS in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were randomly allocated into 2 groups (n = 44). Patients in the group dexmedetomidine (group D) received continuous intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg over 15 minutes before the endoscopy, and propofol 2 mg/kg was intravenously administrated in the group propofol (group P). Cardiopulmonary parameters of patients were recorded. The time to fall asleep, duration of endoscopic examination, the wakeup time of patients, the number of mask ventilations for patients, the satisfaction of patients and endoscopic performers, and false positive cases of SAHS of patients were compared between the two groups. Compared with group D, mean arterial pressure (MAP) and blood oxygen saturation (SPO2) of patients in the P group were lower at the time point of T1 (P < 0.05), the duration of endoscopic examination and wakeup time of patients were obviously prolonged, the incidence of mask ventilation for patients and false positive cases of SAHS of patients was observably higher, and the satisfaction of endoscopic performers was markedly lower, but the time to fall asleep was significantly shortened (P < 0.05). Dexmedetomidine served as a novel sleep induced drug and can provide satisfactory conditions and be safely and effectively applied for endoscopy in patients with SAHS, without adverse hemodynamic effects.
