Summary

Study Objective: To explore the differences in predicted therapeutic outcome of OA and optimal protrusion position determined by Remotely Controlled Mandibular Positioner (RCMP) with overnight PSG in Quebec versus Shenyang patients with OSA.

Design: A prospective, inter-ethnic pilot study. Setting: Two Standard sleep disorder clinical care in Quebec (Canada) and Shenyang (China), with oral appliance titration tests performed in sleep laboratory.

Participants: Consecutive specific OSA patients, who are potential candidates for treatment of OSA with an oral appliance (n=100, 50 Canadian, 50 Chinese), will be recruited from a sleep center or respirologists, psychiatrists, otolaryngologist and dentists practicing with broad inclusion criteria (age: 20-75 years, AHI:15-50/h; BMI\<40 kg/m2).

Interventions: A mandibular protrusive titration study in the PSG lab using a RCMP not only predicts the eventual therapeutic outcome but also prospectively determines Optimal Protrusive Position (OPP) for participants predicted to be therapeutically successful with OA therapy. One goal of this study is to identify OA favorable candidates by physicians using prospectively and explicitly designed criteria. Analyses of the predicted therapeutic outcome of OA and OPP between the two ethnic populations (patients in Quebec and Shenyang) will be processed after matching for OSA severity.

Conditions

  • Remotely Controlled Mandibular Positioner

Interventions

DEVICE

Remotely Controlled Mandibular Positioner (RCMP)

RCMP device can accurately identify patients who are likely to be successful OA candidates. With a temporary dental appliance connected to a RCMP, the mandible could be progressively, mildly and precisely protruded in only anterior-posterior dimension, under the monitor of PSG, without disturbing sleep, until obstructive apneas and hypopneas were eliminated, particularly in REM sleep while supine. Besides, RCMP device can also determine the optimal therapeutic level of mandibular protrusion during sleep.
