NCT ID: NCT04153240 Completed - Clinical trials for Sleep Apnea, Obstructive

The POSA Trial - Positional Therapy for Positional OSA

POSA
Start date: October 30, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Vibro-tactile feedback may be beneficial for some patients, who have positional obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Aim: to determine whether Positional Therapy, applied by a discrete neck-worn vibro-tactile feedback device, is an effective treatment for positional OSA, in reducing the disease severity and associated symptoms, compared to Sham-Positional Therapy. The interaction between treatment and age will also be assessed, since pathophysiology, symptoms and treatment tolerance varies with age. Methods: A prospective randomised, parallel, double-blinded trial comparing Positional Therapy (Night Shift™; Advanced Brain Monitoring, USA) with Sham-Positional Therapy, performed in older (>65 years) and younger patients with positional OSA (apnoea/hypopnea index (AHI)>5 events/hour, 2:1 when supine). The primary endpoint, AHI at 3 months, will be measured by a repeat study with the device in situ, and compared between Positional Therapy and Sham-Positional Therapy. Patients' subjective symptoms, wellbeing and quality of life, will be assessed by questionnaires at baseline and 3 months. Adherence to therapy will be measured.

NCT ID: NCT01535521 Completed - Clinical trials for Positional Sleep Apnea

Sleep Positional Trainer for Positional Sleep Apnea After Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) Therapy

SupPos
Start date: n/a
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The investigators will perform a clinical trial comparing mandibular advancement device (MAD) therapy with sleep positional trainer (SPT) and the combination of MAD and SPT in patients with positional sleep apnea using MAD. Patients are invited for 2 consecutive polysomnographies (PSGs) in randomized order: one PSG with SPT, one PSG with SPT and MAD. PSGs are performed at the Antwerp University Hospital.
