摘要：Purpose: to compare nasal geometry between two groups of patients with different degrees of obstructive sleep apnea and to correlate apnea-hypopnea index, apnea severity and degree of daytime sleepiness with nasal areas and volume. Methods: a total of 20 adults (15 women and 5 men, mean age of 52.0±11.4 years old) without nasal obstruction were submitted to polysomnography. The subjects were divided into two groups: a) 10 individuals without apnea or with mild-grade apnea; b) 10 with moderate or severe apnea. Nasal geometry was evaluated by acoustic rhinometry. The volume, comprising the distance from the nasal valve to the posterior part of the middle nasal turbinate, and the three sectional areas corresponding to nasal valve, anterior part of the inferior nasal turbinate and posterior part of the inferior nasal turbinate, were considered. The Shapiro-Wilk, Mann-Whitney, Student’s t tests for independent samples and Spearman’s correlation coefficient were used for the analysis, with a significance level lower than 5%. Results: group 2 presented lower values in the area corresponding to the nasal valve (on the right), and higher values in the nasal turbinate areas. There was no correlation between the drowsiness scale and nasal areas and volumes. Conclusion: the area of the nasal valve was unilaterally smaller in the group with moderate and severe apnea. There was no correlation between volumes and nasal areas and excessive daytime sleepiness.
