About this study

Official title: The 1 Year Follow-up of Objective Measures of Oral Appliance Compliance for Treatment of Sleep-disordered Breathing (SDB): a Clinical Trial

The investigators will perform a 1-year clinical trial measuring objective compliance during mandibular advancement device (MAD) treatment.

The investigators will enroll 50 patients that received treatment with a titratable, duobloc MAD (RespiDent Butterfly®, RespiDent, Nijlen, Belgium) and participated in the original study "Objective versus subjective compliance with oral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome", registered at Clinical Trials.gov (NCT01284881).

Active microsensors (TheraMon®,Handelsagentur Gschladt, Hargelsberg, Austria) are provided by the Handelsagentur Gschladt without any costs. The sampling interval of the recording will be done at a rate of 1 measurement per 15 minutes (every 900 seconds). Using this sample interval, the capacity of the active microsensor allows for data acquisition during a 100 day period.

A follow-up appointment is scheduled +/- 265 days after the start of the original study. A second follow-up visit is scheduled again 1 year after the start of the original study.

The objective measurement of MAD wear time (total hours of wear time and the mean hours of wear per night over the respective period) will be based on the assumption that the MAD has been worn when the chip records a temperature intraorally.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety and feasibility of measuring objective mean wearing time

    To assess the safety and feasibility of measuring objective mean wearing time as a measure of objective oral appliance wear. The objective mean wearing time will be assessed using a microsensor thermometer. Regular follow-up visits will be performed, and patients will be questioned regarding side-effects of the microsensor.

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. therapeutic index

    to calculate the therapeutic index based on objective compliance and decrease in apnea-hypopnea index / disease severity

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Mandibular Advancement Device in people with Sleep-disordered Breathing, run by University Hospital, Antwerp at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jun 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety and feasibility of measuring objective mean wearing time (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Jun 2013.
