ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE. A new critical complication risk analysis, the reasonable risk ratio (RRR or R3) for palate surgeries in obstructive sleep apnea patients. METHODS. Analysis from published meta-analyses, systematic reviews on success rates, and complications encountered for 3 palate surgeries, expansion sphincter pharyngoplasty (ESP), barbed repositioning pharyngoplasty (BRP) and modified uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (mUPPP), over 20 years. The RRR is derived from a ratio of the percentage of each respective complication over the success rate of that particular surgical procedure. The benchmark RRR of tonsillectomy is set at 0.035 to 0.078. An RRR below this benchmark value is more favorable as tonsillectomy is a widely accepted ENT procedure with risks to benefit well accepted. RESULTS. The RRR for foreign body (FB) sensation (BRP) ranged from 0.03 to 0.23 (mean RRR of 0.14), FB sensation (ESP) 0.01, FB sensation (mUPPP) ranged from 0.33 to 0.55 (mean RRR of 0.44). The RRR for swallowing difficulties (BRP) ranged from 0.04 to 0.23 (mean RRR of 0.11), mUPPP, was 0.37; no reported swallowing difficulties with the ESP. The RRR for velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI) (BRP) ranged from 0.009 to 0.18 (mean RRR of 0.07), and RRR VPI (mUPPP) was 0.14. The RRR (BRP) for dry throat was 0.06 and the mUPPP was 0.35, with no reported VPI or dry throat for ESP. The overall RRR for the BRP was 0.09, ESP was 0.01 and mUPPP was 0.29. CONCLUSION. RRR provides a summarized data-driven, statistical guide to aid decision-making, and helps in patient counseling. BRP and ESP have been shown to have less complications compared to mUPPP.Level of evidence IV.
