Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) and Malocclusion
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of drug therapy, tonsillar adenoidectomy only, orthodontic treatment only and tonsillar adenoidectomy plus orthodontic treatment in children with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and malocclusion. In this study, we hope to improve children's OSAH in function, three-dimensional shape and subjective and objective symptoms of sleep breathing through tonsillar adenoidectomy plus orthodontic treatment.
Interventions
Mometasone Furoate Nasal Spray NASONEX
tonsillar adenoidectomy
Twin-block appliance combined with maxillary expander

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Obstructive Apnea Index(OAI)/ Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) in PolySomnoGraphy (PSG) | change from baseline at 7 months,1 year & 2 years post-treatment | OAI/AHI (which are in negative correlation with oxygen saturation) decrease after treatment |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Low arterial Oxygen Saturation (LSaO2) in PSG | change from baseline at 7 months,1 year & 2 years post-treatment | LSaO2 increase after treatment |
| Airway volume change as shown on Cone Beam Computer Tomography (CBCT) | change from baseline at 7 months post-treatment | Airway volume increase after treatment |
| ANB, Frankfort plane- Mandibular plane Angle (FMA) measurement using X-ray cephalometrics. | change from baseline at 7 months,1 year & 2 years post-treatment | ANB & FMA (face development indicators) become normal after treatment |
| Assessment of subjective efficacy by using a questionnaire on children's sleep symptoms | change from baseline at 7 months,1 year & 2 years post-treatment | Sleep quality improve after treatment. |
