About this study

Official title: 3D Volumetric Changes in the Upper Airway After Maxillomandibular Advancement in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Patients and the Implication on Quality of Life: A Prospective Registry

Background

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by intense snoring and repetitive complete or partial obstructions of the upper airway during sleep together with daytime sleepiness. Several non-invasive therapeutical options exist, however, they do not offer a permanent improvement. Maxillomandibular advancement (MMA) surgery is a procedure which changes the upper airway in a permanent way.

Objectives

The investigators aim to develop a prospective database registering 3D volumetric changes of the upper airway and its anatomic subregions, the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and quality of life (QOL) of all consecutive patients eligible for MMA, performed by Dr. Neyt. Patient demographics, detailed virtual cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) planning parameters, orthognathic surgery, polysomnographic and QOL data are being collected during consecutive visits within the framework of routine practice.

Design

A prospective, observational cohort study

Study center

General Hospital (AZ) Sint-Jan Brugge-Oostende

Population

The investigators would like to include all OSAS patients (AHI ≥ 5) requiring a MMA by Dr. Neyt starting from January 2015.

Endpoints

The investigators aim to collect data that could provide information about the advantages and disadvantages of the routinely performed 3D CBCT preoperative MMA surgery planning for OSAS patients, regarding 3D volumetric changes of the upper airway and its anatomic subregions and quality of life (QOL) in a subjective manner with the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and the OSAS questionnaire and in an objective manner with evaluation of the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI).

Duration

In light of the continuous improvement of patient care, a database will be maintained from January 2015 onwards to enable registration of large-scale OSAS patient data.

Conclusions

Development of a database registering 3D CBCT planning, polysomnographic data and quality of life (QOL) of all consecutive patients eligible for MMA, will provide more information about potential patient, virtual planning and surgical factors influencing accuracy of MMA, and the associated biological benefits of this procedure on the upper airway volume, the AHI and general QOL. Moreover, registration of those results could function as a measurement of quality of care, or could be used for sample size calculation for future large multicenter prospective trials.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. 3D volumetric changes of the upper airway, measured with cone-beam CT

    Measured: 4-6 months

  2. quality of life, measured with epworth sleepiness scale

    Measured: 4-12 months

  3. quality of life, measured with OSAS questionnaire

    Measured: 4-12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by AZ Sint-Jan AV at 1 site in Belgium.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Belgium. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Araceli Diez-Fraile, MSc, PhD, VMD (araceli.diez-fraile@azsintjan.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative apnea-hypopnea index, measured with polysomnography (time frame: 6-12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Feb 2022.
