简要总结
This is a randomized controlled trial for non-apneic snorers. The primary goal of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of a mandibular advancement device (MAD) vs conservative treatment for adults with non-apneic snoring as measured by the partners report of response to treatment (CGI-I). The secondary goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment of snoring on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), a modified Symptoms of Nocturnal Obstruction and Related Events (SNORE-25) questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Clinical Global Impression of Severity Scale (CGI-S)
详细描述
Snoring is a problem which affects roughly half of adults, but rigorous studies on how to treat isolated snoring have not been completed. Mandibular advancement devices (MAD) show consistent improvements in sleep quality for patients with sleep apnea; however, their effect on patients with primary snoring remains less well known.
The primary hypothesis proposes that adults with non-apneic snoring treated with a MAD will experience a greater reduction of snoring as measured by the Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (GCI-I) Scale response of the sleeping partner.
The plan is to enroll 30 participants and 30 sleeping partner participants for each arm of the trial: 120 participants, or 60 pairs, in total. Participants will use the intervention nightly for a period of 4 weeks after which an end of study visit will occur. All post intervention outcomes will be recorded at the end of the study visit. Knowledge gained from this study will help guide treatment practice and evidence-based approaches regarding non-apneic snoring.

盲法说明
- Due to the nature of the randomization process, blinding during the data collection phase will not be possible.
- Participants cannot be blinded either as the treatment modalities differ in a way which makes adequate blinding not possible.
- Prior to data analysis, Dr. Kallogjeri will blind groups as "A" and "B" so that the team will not know which intervention corresponds to A and B throughout both the data analysis and manuscript writing process.

结局指标
主要结局
Percent Responders of Clinical Global Impression of Improvement Scale - Partner
时间窗: 4 weeks post intervention beginning
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"
次要结局
- Change in Clinical Global Impression of Severity Scale(4 weeks post intervention beginning)
- Change in Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Score(Baseline and 4 weeks post intervention beginning)
- Change in Symptoms of Nocturnal Obstruction and Related Events (SNORE-25)(Baseline and 4 weeks post intervention beginning)
- Change in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)(Baseline and follow up)
- Percent Responder of Clinical Global Impression of Improvement Scale - Snorer(4 weeks post intervention beginning)
