The objective of this protocol is to conduct a focus group to identify OSA beliefs, attitudes, and knowledge among employees in the transportation industry on shift schedules.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a chronic condition that has serious health consequences including increased risk of hypertension, type-2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke and reduced life expectancy. This study proposes to use behavioral reinforcement and support to increase adherence to oral appliance therapy for obstructive sleep apnea. The control group in the study will receive routine care. In addition, their oral appliance wear time will be monitored using a sensor built into the appliance. Routine care includes an initial 1-hr consult, then delivery of the oral appliance (with sensor) and follow-up appointments at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year. The second, experimental group will receive adherence promotion techniques in addition to routine care. These adherence promotion techniques can be categorized into 6 methods. 1- spouse/partner included in a patient counseling session. 2- Educational brochure delivery at follow up appointments. 3- Electronic reminder/communication system established by patient and provider. 4-Follow up communication between primary care physician and orthodontist. 5-Celebratory certificate for good adherence with the oral appliance evaluated at 3 month, and 6 month visits. 6-Gift card delivery, $25, when patient schedules a follow up with sleep physician. Patients will be followed for within the research protocol for 6 months. There are no additional risks involved with the research and the anticipated benefit is to develop methods to increase adherence to treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. This will benefit many patients with obstructive sleep apnea who use oral appliances to control the condition.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety profile of the novel oral appliance (OA )device and to assess patient comfort of the novel OA device.
The purpose of study JZP110-401 is to evaluate solriamfetol pharmacokinetics (PK) in the breast milk and plasma of healthy postpartum women following the administration of the drug. The study also aims to estimate the potential daily solriamfetol dose received by the infant from the breast milk of the nursing mother. The safety and tolerability of single oral doses of solriamfetol will also be assessed.
Cheeks appearance is a screening tool developed based on cheeks observation to identify volume, flaccidity or both to predict people with probable obstructive sleep apnea.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of an endoluminal gastric plication using an endoluminal-suturing device to improve severe OSAS in patients with a BMI above or equal to 28 kg/m² until 34.9kg/m².
The purpose of this research is to assess how well people with mild obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) adhere to the eXciteOSA device and specifically examine whether adherence of the device is different with low versus high electrical stimulation. In addition, this research study will assess how well the device affects mild sleep apnea and if it improves sleepiness and quality of life.
Aims of this research are to detect if an improvement in sleep pattern in patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), produces a reduction in pain and dysfunction in the orofacial area by examining variation in temporo-mandibular disorder (TMD) signs and symptoms and if the prevalence of TMDs in OSA patients controlling this disease decreases to levels comparable to healthy subjects. 41 OSA patients will undergo a complete TMD examination prior to start any OSA treatment and after at least 18 months of therapy. Variations in TMD signs and symptoms will be recorded.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the upper airway muscles in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
