MARPE-Associated Changes in Sleep and Airway
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
MARPE: Adult patients with maxillary constriction underwent maxillary expansion using a miniscrew-assisted rapid palatal expander (MARPE).
Study summary
At the beginning of MARPE treatment (T1) and at the end of the 3-month consolidation phase (T2), patients will complete the teen-STOP-BANG questionnaire and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) to assess the potential benefit of MARPE in reducing the risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).
Additionally, changes in the upper airway will be evaluated using CBCT images obtained at T1 and T2.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Change in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) risk as measured by the teen-STOP-BANG questionnaire — 3 month
The teen-STOP-BANG questionnaire will be used to assess changes in OSA risk following MARPE treatment. STOP-BANG scores range from 0 to 8; a score of at least 3 indicates that the patient is at risk of OSAHS, and a score of at least 5 indicates that the patient is at high risk of OSA.
