Trial Outcomes & Findings for Mandibular Advancement vs Home Treatment for Primary Snoring (NCT NCT05756647)
NCT ID: NCT05756647
Last Updated: 2025-06-06
Results Overview
This will occur asynchronously through email surveys distributed through the Washington University REDCap server or through a scheduled telephone call depending on the participant's preference. The Partner will grade the improvement of the snoring on the following continuous scale, which will be the Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) scale: Very Much Improved Much Improved Minimally Improved No Change Minimally Worse Much Worse Very Much Worse The percentage of responders to treatment will then be compared between the two arms of the trial. A responder will be defined as someone who rates the response to snoring as either "Very Much Improved" or "Much Improved"

| Measure |
Interventional Arm: Snorers
The Mandibular Advancement Device for this study will be the ProSomnus Sleep Device. It is a sleep device intended to reduce nighttime snoring and mild to moderate Obstructive Sleep Apnea in adults by holding the lower jaw forward during sleep
Interventional Arm: The MAD arm will consist of participants given a fitted mandibular advancement device that they will wear for the length of the study.
|
Conservative Treatment Arm: Snorers
The conservative treatment will consist of four different interventions: Mometasone nasal rinse, External nasal dilatory therapy, Mouth taping and Lateral positional therapy.
Conservative treatment Arm: Participant will undergo a nightly medicated nasal rinse that will occur for a 4 week period, prior to beginning of the other three conservative therapy interventions. The 4-part combination therapy will take place for 4 weeks total.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 4 weeks post intervention beginningThe CGI-Severity Scale poses the question "On average, how much of a problem does your \[partner's\] snoring pose?" The 5 response options will include: no problem, mild problem, moderate problem, severe problem, problem as severe as it can be. It will be measured both at baseline and after treatment. Change in CGI-S score will be calculated and reported as a secondary outcome measure as the change in CGI-S score between the two arms. In addition, the CGI-S will be measured by the sleeping partner on a daily basis both before and after treatment.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline and 4 weeks post intervention beginningThe ESS is a commonly used measure to evaluate the propensity to of a participant to fall asleep in 8 everyday scenarios "in recent times". The participant rates each situation on a scale of 0-3, with 0 being least likely to fall asleep and 3 being the most likely. Final score can range from 0-24. Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score will be recorded by both the partner and the snorer at baseline and follow up. Change in ESS score will be calculated and reported as a secondary outcome measure as the change in ESS score or the difference in percentage of participates recording an ESS improvement above the Minimal Clinically Important Difference between the two arms.

Timeframe: Baseline and 4 weeks post intervention beginningPopulation: Comparison of outcome measures between the study group
The SNORE-25 is a modification of the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patient-Oriented Severity Index (OSAPOSI) which includes 25 total items. Symptoms of Nocturnal Obstruction and Related Events (SNORE-25) score will be recorded by both the partner and the snorer at baseline and follow up. The SNORE-25 score is calculated as the mean item score for all 25 items. The possible range for the SNORE-25 score is 0-5, with higher scores indicating greater sleep disordered-related health burden. Impact of treatment is assessed with the SNORE-25 Change Score. The SNORE-25 Change Score is the difference between SNORE-25 Pre-treatment and SNORE-25 Post-Treatment scores. Minimal Clinically Important Difference. A SNORE-25 Change Score of 0.5 should be considered the minimal clinically important difference and change scores greater than this should be considered clinically meaningful.

Timeframe: Baseline and follow upThe Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index is a self-rate questionnaire which assess sleep quality and disturbances over a 1-month time interval. It is composed of 19 items which contribute to 7 different component scores:A global sum of these components \> 5 signifies poor sleep quality with a sensitivity of 89.6% and a specific of 86.5%2 Change in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score will be calculated and reported as a secondary outcome measure as the change in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score or the difference in percentage of participates recording a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index improvement above the Minimal Clinically Important Difference (4.4) compared between the two arms. The questionnaire consists of a combination of Likert type and open-ended questions (later converted to scaled scores).Scores for each question range from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more acute sleep disturbances.
