Analysis of cervical tracheal characteristics of obstructive sleep apnoea-hypopnoea syndrome patients using ultrasound
OSAHS patients have greater caudal tracheal displacement and greater tracheal size than healthy controls. Ultrasonography may be especially suited for precisely evaluating the trachea and can provide a reference for the airway assessment and management of OSAHS.
