NCT04858399

Brief Summary

The study aim of the project is to investigate the differences in respiratory functions, orofacial muscle tone changes, anxiety/depression, and quality of life of the patients according to the severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome. At the same time, to examine the reliability of the use of the MyotonPro evaluation method, which takes place rapidly in the literature and clinic, in the orofacial pharyngeal muscle group.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The muscle tone evaluation

    MyotonPro device will be used for muscle tone evaluation.The device provides a controlled preload of 0.18 N for initial compression of the subcutaneous tissue and then release an additional 15-ms impulse of 0.40 N of mechanical force, which induces a damped or decaying natural oscillation of the tissue35. The calculation formula was as follows: S = amax. mprobe/Δl; amax - maximum amplitude of the oscillation in the acceleration signal; mprobe - mass (preload) of the probe of 0.18 N, Δl - amplitude of the displacement signal.

    Day 1.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of the anxiety and depression.

    Day 1.

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Evaluation of Quality of Life

    Day 1.
