Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Polysomnographic (PSG) parameters, mainly AHI and O2 desaturation measures

    Comparison of PSG data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year

    Through study completion. Data to be re-collected after one year of therapy for each participant

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Epworth Sleepiness Scale

    Comparison of data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year for each participant

  • Functional Outcome of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ)

    Comparison of data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year for each participant

  • Nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE)

    Comparison of data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year for each participant

  • Upper airway volume changes based on low-dose CT imaging (CBCT)

    Comparison of CBCT data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year

  • BMI

    Comparison of data between pre-therapy and post-therapy values at one year

Study Arms (1)
