Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
No Intervention: Control
No oral appliance (control) first, oral appliance (BluePro oral appliance or other device) second
|
|
Experimental: Oral appliance
oral appliance (BluePro oral appliance or other device) first, no oral appliance (control) second
|
Patients will bring their prescribed oral appliance.
Patients without a prescribed oral appliance will have a device provided for the duration of the study (BluePro, BlueSom; used for investigational purposes only).
The device provided is a prefabricated thermoplastic customizable mandibular advancement splint.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in passive pharyngeal collapsibility (OA therapy minus control)
Time Frame: 3 nights
|
The passive pressure-flow relationship is characterized by the critical closing pressure (Pcrit) , and the ventilatory flow at atmospheric pressure ( V passive). Pcrit and V passive will be determined using the standard 5-breath CPAP drop method. The change in collapsibility will be compared across subgroups defined by the site of collapse measured using sleep-endoscopy. Patients will sleep supine for this measurement. |
3 nights
|
Change in sleep apnea severity (AHI)
Time Frame: 2 nights
|
The change in apnea-hypopnea index (AHI, 3% desaturation or arousal criteria; OA therapy minus control) will be compared across subgroups defined by the site of collapse measured using sleep-endoscopy.
Baseline collapsibility will be incorporated as a predictor of the change in AHI.
|
2 nights
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in peak flow during sleep (OA therapy minus control)
Time Frame: 2 nights
|
During the portion of the night dedicated to measuring sleep apnea severity, peak flow will also be measured during sleep to quantify activated upper airway collapsibility.
|
2 nights
|
Objective sleep quality (OA therapy minus control)
Time Frame: 2 nights
|
Arousal index, one of the standard measures of sleep quality, will be assessed.
|
2 nights
|
Objective sleep quality (OA therapy minus control)
Time Frame: 2 nights
|
Proportion of sleep in Non rapid eyes movement ( NREM) stage 1,one of the standard measures of sleep quality, will be assessed.
|
2 nights
|
Subjective sleep quality (OA therapy minus control)
Time Frame: 2 nights
|
Patients will rate whether they slept better/worse/same with the OA vs control.
|
2 nights
