Although obstructive sleep apnea results from the combination of different pathophysiologic mechanisms, the degree of anatomical compromise remains the main responsible factor. The passive pharyngeal critical closing pressure (Pcrit) is a technique used to assess the collapsibility of the upper airway and is often used as a surrogate measure of this anatomical compromise. Patients with a low Pcrit (ie, less collapsible airway) are potential candidates for non-continuous positive airway pressure therapies. However, Pcrit determination is a technically complex method not available in clinical practice. We hypothesized that the discrimination between low and high Pcrit can be estimated from simple anthropometric and polysomnographic indices.
