Trial summary

This is the study entitled "Comparison for oral negative pressure therapy and CPAP for OSA under sleep endoscopy assistance: A randomized controlled trial". CPAP is first line golden standard treatment for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the overall CPAP compliance is poor. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Thoracic Department, Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linko Main Branch

This is the study entitled "Comparison for oral negative pressure therapy and CPAP for OSA under sleep endoscopy assistance: A randomized controlled trial". CPAP is first line golden standard treatment for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, the overall CPAP compliance is poor. Recent study reveals that oral negative pressure therapy improves apnea severity in OSA patients with good compliance. However, no study is designed to compare oral negative pressure therapy and CPAP for OSA patients. In addition, the effect of oral negative pressure therapy for hypopharynx is unclear. Therefore, we will perform druginduced sleep endoscopy to evaluate upper airway obstruction of OSA patients before treatment. OSA patients will be assigned into oral negative pressure group or CPAP group for 2 months. Sleepiness, sleep quality, residual apnea severity and compliance will be evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)

    lower ESS means better outcome

    Measured: Change from Baseline ESS at 1 month

  2. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)

    lower ESS means better outcome

    Measured: Change from Baseline ESS at 2 months

  3. apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)

    lower AHI means better outcome

    Measured: Change from Baseline AHI at 2 months
