Like any surgery under general anaesthesia there is a down time you should consider before you can go back to work.
There are 5 main determinants of success after snoring and sleep apnoea surgical procedures. This shall be re assessed by the specialist right after the 2nd month of the surgical procedure.
- Partner or patient satisfaction
- Clinical response to the treatment (reduced snoring and apnoea events per night)
- Reduction of somnolence
- Reduction of associated symptoms (headaches, tiredness, anxiety)
- Improvement in overall quality of life
