Brief Summary

To study the effects of two combination therapies for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have been both intolerant to Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy and sub-therapeutic to oral appliance therapy. Hypothesis 1\. There is a difference between Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) vs CPAP/Oral Appliance (OA) connect vs CPAP/OA disconnected in terms of:

  1. 1.Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) reduction
  2. 2.Amount of side effects
  3. 3.Amount of Leaks
  4. 4.Hours of use (compliance)
  5. 5.CPAP pressure
  6. 6.Epworth sleepiness Scale (ESS)
  7. 7.Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ)
  8. 8.Side effects Study Design - randomized prospective parallel

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (7)

  • Apnea-Hypopnea Index

    Episodes per hour that the patient experiences apneas and/or hypopneas

    2 months

  • PAP Pressure

    The pressure required to treat the patient successfully

    2 months

  • Leaks

    The Liters/Minute of leaking of the PAP machine

    2 months

  • Hours of Use

    The average hours of use per night of each of the combination therapies

    2 months

  • Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)

    The ESS is a self-administered questionnaire with 8 questions. The score can range from 0 to 24. The higher the ESS score, the higher that person's average sleep propensity in daily life.

    2 months

  • Functional Outcomes Sleep Questionnaire (FOSQ)

    FOSQ is a disease specific quality of life questionnaire to determine how sleepiness interferes one's quality of life. The total score range from 5 to 20 (10 questions, 1-4 points per each). The lower values represent a worse quality of life.

    2 months

  • Intolerance Questionnaire

    This questionnaire consists of 4 questions to determine the frequency of 4 typical side-effects from positive airway pressure therapy. The score ranges from 0 to 16 (4 questions, 0-4 points per each). The higher value represent worse side effects.

    2 months

Study Arms (2)

Combination Therapy with Preferred Mask

EXPERIMENTAL

Preferred Mask refers to a type of existing medical mask used for PAP therapy.

Device: Nuance ProDevice: autoPAP

Combination Therapy with Custom Mask

EXPERIMENTAL

Custom Mask refers to a mask which is supported by an interface which attaches directly to the patient's oral appliance.

Device: autoPAPDevice: TAP PAP

Interventions

Study compares Nuance Pro plus Automatic Positive Airway Pressure (autoPAP) vs TAP PAP plus autoPAP
