About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Observational, Post-market Surveillance Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of the iNAP® Sleep Therapy System in Adults With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

A Prospective, Observational, Post-market Surveillance Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy of the iNAP® Lite Sleep Therapy System in Adults with Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) impacts sleep quality of patients, which contributes significantly to hypertension, stroke, myocardial infarction and other health problems. Intraoral devices, such as tongue retaining devices, palatal lifting devices and mandibular repositioning devices designed to increase the patency of the airway and to decrease airway obstruction, are used to treat OSA. To this end, we are conducting a prospective, observational, post-market surveillance study to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of the iNAP® Lite sleep therapy system (iNAP® Lite), a tongue and soft palate retaining intraoral device, in adults with OSA.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • iNAP® Lite Sleep Therapy SystemDevice

    Class II intraoral devices for snoring and/or obstructive sleep apnea

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants with adverse events in this entire study.

    All safety events will be listed and tabulated for their occurrence rate

    Measured: through study completion, up to 10 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. iNAP® Lite-treated clinical success rate

    AHI is the number of apnea/hypopnea events divided by total sleep time (TST), i.e., the number of hours of sleep. Clinical success rate is defined as the proportion of patients in the PP cohort with an AHI reduction of >50% and treated AHI <20 on the Tx PSG Study when compared with the baseline

    Measured: a treated polysomnography or polygraphy assessment night
