Surgical Management of Primary Palatoplasty - a Systematic Review
ISSN: 2455-2631 © April 2021 IJSDR | Volume 6, Issue 4 Surgical management of primary palatoplasty - A systematic Review Type of Manuscript: Review Study Running Title: Surgical management of primary palatoplasty MONISHA K Undergraduate student Saveetha Dental College, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences.(SIMATS) Saveetha University, Chennai, India CORRESPONDING AUTHOR DR.SENTHIL MURUGAN.P Reader Department of Oral surgery Saveetha Dental College, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences (SIMATS) Saveetha University, Tamilnadu, India Abstract: Clefts of the secondary palate, either isolated or accompanying, a cleft lip, are characterized by a defect in the palate of varying extent and by abnormal insertion of the levator veli palatini muscles. It is argued that repair of the palate should be carried out in one stage, shortly before or after 1 year of age, and should include intralveloplasty. Surgical corrections of cleft lip and palate primary lip repair such as (surgery for lip correction) and primary palatoplasty (reconstruction of hard and/or soft palate), are recommended in the first year of life. Primary palate surgery can be performed through various surgical techniques, of which the best for the type and the extent of the cleft is chosen, always seeking correction from the anatomic and functional point of view. Surgical failure may occur due to the surgical technique, the surgeon's skill, and/or the extent of the cleft palate. A Cleft palate repair is of concern to plastic surgeons, speech pathologists, otolaryngologists and orthodontists with respect to the timing of the operation, the type of palatoplasty to be considered and the effect of the repair on speech, facial growth and eustachian tube function. -
Adult Snoring: Clinical Assessment and a Review on the Management Options V Visvanathan, W Aucott
The Internet Journal of Otorhinolaryngology ISPUB.COM Volume 9 Number 1 Adult snoring: Clinical assessment and a review on the management options V Visvanathan, W Aucott Citation V Visvanathan, W Aucott. Adult snoring: Clinical assessment and a review on the management options. The Internet Journal of Otorhinolaryngology. 2008 Volume 9 Number 1. Abstract Simple snoring is common in the UK and the estimated prevalence is 14% to 50%. It can be a frustrating problem for patients and partners alike. It is vital to differentiate simple snoring from obstructive sleep apnoea as the clinical management differs for these two conditions. This article highlights the assessment of an adult presenting with snoring and reviews the current literature in the management of troublesome snoring. CASE REPORT It is vital to ascertain coexisting obstructive sleep apnoea A 45-year-old man presents to the clinic along with his (OSA) i.e. witnessed apnoeic attacks, nocturnal choking, partner who complains of his excessive snoring habit forcing daytime somnolence, early morning headaches, or her to sleep in a separate room. poor concentration as OSA will require further management HISTORY which includes continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Simple snoring is common in the U.K and the estimated 5. Are there symptoms of nasal disease? prevalence is 14% to 50% 1,2. It can be quite frustrating for partners and patients alike. Snoring is the sound produced by Nasal airway obstruction is a contributing factor to snoring the vibration of the upper airway walls in the presence of and if identified should be dealt with appropriately. partial airway obstruction. -

New Emergency Room Requirement for Hospital and Autopay List of Diagnosis Codes
Provider update New emergency room requirement for hospitals Dell Children’s Health Plan reviewed our emergency room (ER) claims data and identified numerous reimbursements for services with diagnoses that are not indicative of urgent or emergent conditions. As a managed care organization, we promote the provision of services in the most appropriate setting and reinforce the need for members to coordinate care with their PCP unless the injury or sudden onset of illness requires immediate medical attention. Effective on or after August 1, 2020, for nonparticipating hospitals and on or after October 1, 2020, for participating hospitals, Dell Children’s Health Plan will only process an ER claim for a hospital as emergent and reimburse at the applicable contracted rate or valid out‐ of‐network Medicaid fee‐for‐service rate when a diagnosis from a designated auto‐pay list is billed as the primary diagnosis on the claim. If the primary diagnosis is not on the auto‐pay list, the provider must submit medical records with the claim. Upon receipt, the claim and records will be reviewed by a prudent layperson standard to determine if the presenting symptoms qualify the patient’s condition as emergent. If the reviewer confirms the visit was emergent, according to the prudent layperson criteria, the claim will pay at the applicable contracted rate or valid out‐of‐network Medicaid fee‐for‐service rate. If it is determined to be nonemergent, the claim will pay a triage fee. In the event a claim from a hospital is submitted without a diagnosis from the auto‐pay list as the primary diagnosis and no medical records are attached, the claim for the ER visit will automatically pay a triage fee. -
