Marco Pitarch R et al. Effectiveness of a mandibular advancement device in obstructive sleep apnea patients: a prospective clinical trial. Eur Arch Otorhinolaryngol 2018; 275: 1903–1911

In einer prospektiven Studie wurde die Effektivität einer Unterkieferprotrusionsschiene (mandibular advancement device, MAD) bei Patienten mit obstruktivem Schlafapnoesyndrom getestet. Evaluiert wurden dabei verschiedene Merkmale der Patienten und der MAD als Prädiktoren des Behandlungsergebnisses.
