OSA Upper Airways Surgery: A Targeted Approach
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Good work!
As noted in the paper, OSA is a multifactorial disorder.......treatment therefore cannot be a "one size fits all" approach. Different treatments must be available for the different pathophysiological factors.
This paper does an excellent job of describing the major anatomic and non anatomic factors, and then discussing the various surgical approaches based on those factors.
There is nothing adverse that I can say about the paper. Everything is well thought out and well-documented.
