About this study

Assessment of the association of maxillary expansion using a rapid palatal expansion, use of a mandibular advancement appliance (MGA™) and of a device allowing sleep in a semi-seated position (Yoobreath™) in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OAS). MGA™ and YooBreath™ constitute the Yookid system™.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive Sleep Apnea syndrome (OSA) shows a 10% morbidity rate in children with a higher rate between the ages of 3 and 5. Generally speaking, its prevalence is underestimated. Furthermore, detecting OSA remains difficult due to its particular physiopathology. The decrease in nasopharyngeal airway dimensions is the most common etiology. This decrease is related to soft tissues as well as maxillomandibular abnormalities. The aim of the study is to show that reducing sleep apnea in children remains possible when inducing rapid palatal expansion and mandibular advancement using the Yookid™ system. The Yookid™ system associates a mandibular advancement appliance and repositioning of the patient during sleep.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 7 Feb 2020. 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 France. 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?
