Obstructive Sleep Apnea Non-PAP Outcomes and Viable Alternatives (OSANOVA): Comparison of Mandibular Advancement Device and Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation Outcomes

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY

OSANOVA is a non-randomized clinical trial which aims to compare outcomes of mandibular advancement device (MAD) and hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) therapies in moderate-to-severe OSA patients who fail, decline, or are intolerant to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy (referred to as PAP-failing patients). The primary aim of the study is to compare the outcomes between PAP-failing moderate-to-severe OSA patients receiving MAD and those receiving HGNS therapy. Primary Outcome measures include changes in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores. Secondary aims will help us describe the outcomes between PAP-failing moderate-to-severe OSA patients receiving MAD and those receiving HGNS therapy. Secondary outcome measures include: * adverse events, * Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), * Symptoms of Nocturnal Obstruction and Related Events (SNORE-25), * patient-reported satisfaction, * CGI-Improvement, * the rate of subjects re-selecting the treatment, and * the rate of subjects recommending the treatment. and * changes in sleep study metrics (i.e., AHI, ODI, mean arterial saturation, and Time\<90%),

Treatments
Experimental: Mandibular Advancement Device (MAD) therapy
This arm includes patients who will receive treatment with a mandibular advancement device, which is an accepted therapy for moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients following intolerance, refusal, or failure of positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy.
Active_comparator: Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation (HGNS) therapy
This arm consists of patients who will receive hypoglossal nerve stimulation therapy, another accepted treatment option for moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients following intolerance, refusal, or failure of positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy.
