OBJECTIVES: In some individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), the palate prolapses into the velopharynx during expiration, limiting airflow through the nose or shunting it out the mouth. We hypothesized that this phenomenon causes expiratory flow limitation (EFL) and is associated with inspira...
