To evaluate the effects of the mandibular advancement device (MAD) on daytime sleepiness, quality of life (QoL) and polysomnographic profile of intercity transport drivers with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).
A quasi-experimental study evaluating intercity transport drivers from March to September 2019. The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) was evaluated by type III polysomnography, which defined the severity of the disease. OSAS: mild (5 to 15), moderate (15 to 29), or severe (= 30). Sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth sleepiness scale, consisting of 8 questions about the likelihood of drowsiness in daily situations. QoL was assessed using the SF-36 questionnaire, which provides the score in eight domains: functional capacity, physical aspects, pain, general health status, vitality, social aspects, emotional aspects, and mental health. Drivers with OSAS underwent intervention with application of personalized MAD for 8 to 12 weeks.
The total sample (n=23) (44.77±11.56 years) had a body mass index (BMI) of 30.64±4.66kg/m2, and an OSAS prevalence of 65.2% of drivers (n=15). There were losses of 4 drivers so that the final sample of drivers with OSAS for the intervention with the MAD was 11 individuals, with an average age of 45.54±9.41 years and BMI of 32.21±3.17kg/m². There was a decrease in AHI (28.51±15.66ev/h 012.11±6.70ev/h, p=0.002) and pain (60 (50-60)040 (40-50), p=0.015) after the intervention.
There was a reduction in AHI in intercity transport drivers after implementing the MAD procedure.
评估下颌前移装置(MAD)对患有阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征(OSAS)的城际运输司机白天嗜睡情况、生活质量(QoL)及多导睡眠图特征的影响。
一项准实验研究,于2019年3月至9月对城际运输司机进行评估。通过III型多导睡眠图评估呼吸暂停低通气指数(AHI),以确定疾病的严重程度。OSAS分为:轻度(5至15)、中度(15至29)或重度(=30)。使用Epworth嗜睡量表评估嗜睡情况,该量表由8个关于日常情况下困倦可能性的问题组成。使用SF-36问卷评估生活质量,该问卷在八个领域给出评分:功能能力、身体方面、疼痛、总体健康状况、活力、社会方面、情感方面和心理健康。患有OSAS的司机接受个性化MAD治疗8至12周。
总样本(n=23)(44.77±11.56岁)的体重指数(BMI)为30.64±4.66kg/m²,OSAS患病率为65.2%的司机(n=15)。有4名司机退出,因此接受MAD干预的最终OSAS司机样本为11人,平均年龄为45.54±9.41岁,BMI为32.21±3.17kg/m²。干预后AHI(28.51±15.66次/小时降至12.11±6.70次/小时,p=0.002)和疼痛(60(50 - 60)降至40(40 - 50),p=0.015)有所下降。
实施MAD程序后,城际运输司机的AHI有所降低。
