摘要：

This study was designed to test the hypothesis that nasal dilation reduces snoring. To achieve this we performed nocturnal polysomnography, including measurement of snoring, in 15 patients without nasal pathology before and after insertion of a nasal dilator (NOZOVENT(TM)). Snoring was quantified for each sleep stage by recording the number of snores per minute of sleep, number of snores per minute of snoring time and nocturnal sound intensities (maximum, average and minimum). We found that nasal dilation had no effect on the number of apneas, hypopneas or oxygen saturation. Snoring parameters were unaffected by NOZOVENT during stages I, II and REM sleep, but were all significantly reduced during slow wave sleep. We conclude that dilation of the anterior nares in patients without nasal pathology has a relatively weak effect on snoring, and routine use of nasal dilating appliances is not recommended for treatment of snoring.
