DALIAN COBLATION CONFERENCE

2010-06-07T16:13:00.000-07:00

Mr Burgess recently attended the Advanced course in Sleep Apnoea Surgery in Dalian China.

New techniques for treating snoring and sleep apnoea were presented including radiofrequency treatment to the tongue designed to create more upper airway space.

This offers an advanced way of alleviating sleep disordered breathing without the side effects of traditional treatment.

Radiofrequency upper airway surgery is aimed at opening up the upper airway, reducing snoring and treating sleep apnoea.

The technique is fast well tolerated and shows excellent results in the latest studies.
In many users of CPAP it allows them to discard their CPAP machines and return to normal sleep.

An alternative to conventional tonsillectomy was also presented that gives much reduced post operative discomfort and better outcomes with less risk of side effects.

Mr Burgess has introduced these techniques into his practice.

Little Grommets - Earbands

2009-10-01T20:29:00.000-07:00

How many children these days have grommets due to chronic ear infections.. PLENTY! Including my son. For those who have been through the experience, you will know it's imperative that water in their ears be avoided after the grommets have been placed. That's where ear plugs come in .. and how do we keep the ear plugs in active childrens' ears? With a "little grommets" Earband of course!

I urge you to check out the little grommets site - you can order on site - too easy!!

They are designed by a Mother who has been through the process and found other earbands not suitable. The result - little grommets - a fantastic product I'm telling the World about because they are brilliant!! With the velcro, one-size-fits-all design, it means the earplugs can be put in, then the little grommets easily wrapped around the head/ears without having any struggle. It sounds simple and obvious - but compared to the other earbands on the market, they are far superior!

Southern ENT sells the little grommets - we happy for anyone to pop in and have a look at them or purchase them from us.

Making parents and kids happy all in one! Congrat's little grommets - we won't be able to live without you now!! :)
