Reinforcement of Upper Airway Muscles in Patients With OSAS

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will investigate the effectiveness of a simple and quick myofunctional reeducation protocol of the tongue in reducing the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) severity.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a randomized controlled study. Participants with moderate OSAS severity will be either allocated to receive a myofunctional reeducation protocol (study group) or a sham protocol (control group). Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) will be measured before and at the end (6 weeks) of the protocol. Participants from the study group will follow an upper airway reinforcement regimen using the IOPI (Iowa Oral Performance Instrument) device over 6 weeks while participants from the control group will perform a sham reeducation protocol using an "EMT threshold" at minimal resistance. ;
