Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main purpose of this study is to test is mandibular advacenment device (MAD) use is associated with reductions in nocturia.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

After been informed about the study and informed about risks and benefits, participants will be fitted with a MAD and will be asked to completed questionnaires at baseline, in between follow ups and during follow ups. Nocturia will be assess and appliance will be titrated every 2 weeks until participants report less than 2 voiding per night according to the daily dairies. At that point, second sleep study with MAD in place will be performed to assess treatment effectiveness.

Intervention Type DEVICE

The efficacy of the device will be evaluated in regards to the response of nocturia. Once patients report an average of voiding per night of less than 2 in the preceding 2 weeks of the follow up they will be classified as responders in term of nocturia and will be evaluated with a second sleep study. Efficacy of MAD will be assessed by comparing the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) values of pre and post sleep study with MAD, and they will be classified as responders if they have 50% improvement in AHI.
