NCT07186725

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the under-mattress monitoring device to aid in the titration process of a mandibular advancement device (MAD) for the management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A secondary aim is to evaluate changes in subjective OSA symptoms and patient's satisfaction with MAD. A third aim is to analyze if there are differences between the sleep parameters recorded by the under-mattress monitor between responders and non-responders to MAD therapy.

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • Change in minimum oxygen desaturation level

    The minimum O2 level percentage during treatment

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change in Epworth Sleepiness Scale

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • Change in Quality of Life Scale

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • Change in Fatigue Assessment Scale

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • Change in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • Change in Snore Outcomes Survey (SOS)

    Baseline and post-intervention (approximately 12 weeks)

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (1)

Panthera DSAD mandibular advancement device users

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants of the study that have been referred to the Orofacial Pain Clinic by their sleep physician for the management of their obstructive sleep apnea with a mandibular advancement device.

Device: Under-mattress monitorDevice: level 3 Home Sleep Apnea TestDevice: Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD)

Interventions

the under-mattress monitor will be used in conjunction with the Alice NightOne at the beginning and end of the study, in addition, the under-mattress monitor will be used daily during sleep with the intraoral device in situ

Also known as: Sleeptracker-AI
Panthera DSAD mandibular advancement device users

Home sleep apnea test with Alice NightOne will be used for one day during sleep at the beginning and end of the study in conjunction with the Sleeptracker AI and the intraoral device.

Also known as: Alice NightOne
Panthera DSAD mandibular advancement device users

CAD-CAM, US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved MAD, duo-bloc, customized, titratable sleep appliance. Participants will return every 2 weeks to the Orofacial Pain (OFP) clinic to progressively titrate the MAD advancement as needed until the under-mattress monitor scores an AHI \< 5
