About this study

The goal of this observational prospective cohort study is to learn about the natural course of central and mixed sleep apneas that develop after maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgery for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adult patients.

The main question it aims to answer is:

Do central and mixed apneas resolve, partially resolve, or persist in the long term after MMA?

Participants will:

Undergo a first postoperative polysomnography (PSG) at 3-6 months after MMA (part of standard care).

Be invited into the study if central/mixed apneas are detected (CMAI% >25%). Undergo a second PSG at least 12 months after MMA (extra study procedure)

What is being measured

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

  1. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA surgery

  2. Central apnea index (CAI)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA surgery

  3. Mixed apnea index (MAI)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA surgery

  4. The percentage of central and mixed apneas of AHI (CMAI%)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Lowest oxyhemoglobin saturation (LSAT)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA surgery

  2. Oxygen desaturation index (ODI)

    Measured: 12 months after MMA surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) and Central Sleep Apnea, run by Academisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA) at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 3 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 2026. 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 Netherlands. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Dr. Ho (020-5663898, j.p.ho@amsterdamumc.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) (time frame: 12 months after MMA surgery). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 May 2026.
