  • Description: Background: Early studies report on different calibers of the mesopharyngeal opening in the states of wakefulness and sedation. Objektives: Is it possible to manipulate the widening of the mesopharyngeal isthmus by particular maneuvers in the states of wakefulness and sedation? Methods: The mesopharyngeal isthmus of 50 healthy subjects was examined endoscopically in wakefulness and under sedation. The intraoral negative pressure was controlled by a vacuum activator. The following maneuvers were performed and widening of the isthmus was documented pictorially: spontaneous breathing with clos...
