Abstract

Thirty-two patients undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) for snoring have been studied prospectively using objective measurement of snoring levels. A significant reduction was found, especially in the supine posture. The quantitative reduction was small and correlations between subjective and objective changes in snoring volume were weak.
