Functional imaging improves patient selection for mandibular advancement device treatment outcome in sleep-disordered breathing: a prospective study

Helene Van Gaver et al.

Summary: This study aims to evaluate the mechanisms and treatment outcomes of mandibular advancement devices (MADs) using functional imaging and computational fluid dynamics. The results indicate that MAD increases the upper airway volume, primarily due to an increase in the velopharyngeal volume. Responders show a significant increase in the total upper airway volume with MAD treatment, while nonresponders do not show a significant increase.

Dimensional analysis of the upper airway in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome patients treated with mandibular advancement device: A bi- and three-dimensional evaluation

Rocio Marco-Pitarch et al.

Summary: The study found that treatment with MAD significantly reduced AHI and increased the total airway volume, especially in the oropharynx. However, the correlation between AHI improvement and upper airway volume augmentation was not significant.

Summary: The study found that longer tubes are more collapsible than shorter tubes, which is consistent with the higher incidence of obstructive sleep apnea in males.
