¸ñÀû: This study aims to validate the clinical utility of AI-driven predictive
software we developed for OSAS by analyzing anatomical data and airflow
parameters, identifying optimal patient populations for surgical
intervention, and determining specific airway regions that yield the
most beneficial outcomes when performing surgery. ¹æ¹ý:A prospective, single-center study was conducted on 25 patients with
moderate-to-severe OSAS (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] ¡Ã15 events/hour)
who were intolerant to CPAP therapy. Patients underwent SP TORS TBR with
expansion sphincter pharyngoplasty as a multilevel surgical approach.
The study integrated computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and machine
learning for airway analysis, employing a 3D UNet deep-learning model
for automatic segmentation of upper airway structures from CT scans. A
multivariate Gaussian process regression model was developed to predict
airflow patterns rapidly, and a support vector machine classifier was
used to distinguish between healthy subjects and OSAS patients. °á°ú:The mean patient age was 37.9 ¡¾ 11.9 years, with a mean BMI of 26.63 ¡¾
3.52 kg/m©÷. The median surgical duration was 116 minutes, with a median
console time of 25 minutes. Correlation analysis revealed that tongue-
epiglottis volume (AUC 1) and uvula-tongue volume (AUC 0.824) were
significant predictors of surgical success. Significant predictors of
surgical success included tongue-epiglottis volume (AUC = 1.0) and
uvula-tongue volume (AUC = 0.824). Machine learning-based AHI
classification showed high concordance with traditional polysomnography.
Notably, most airway changes did not significantly correlate with AHI
improvements, except for the anteroposterior width of the nasopharynx. °á·Ð:AI-driven predictive modeling, combined with CFD and CT imaging,
provides a novel framework for surgical planning and outcome
prediction in OSAS. This approach identifies critical anatomical
predictors of success, such as tongue-epiglottis and uvula-tongue
volumes, supporting the advancement of personalized medicine in OSAS
management. These findings suggest that AI-driven models could be
integrated into preoperative workflows, enabling personalized surgical
planning and potentially improving long-term patient outcomes in OSAS
management. Additionally, CT-based assessments offer reliable
adjunctive value alongside traditional diagnostic methods, enhancing
the precision of therapeutic strategies. |
