Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized crossover trial of two treatments for sleep apnea/hypopnea syndrome: continuous positive airway pressure and mandibular repositioning splint
Heather M. Engleman,James P. McDonald,David Graham,Glenn E Lello,Ruth N. Kingshott,Emma L. Coleman,Thomas W. Mackay,Neil J. Douglas +7 more
TL;DR: These results do not support these MRS devices as first-line treatment for sleepy patients with SAHS, and symptoms, treatment efficacy and satisfaction, and subjective sleepiness were also better with CPAP than with MRS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Crossover Trial of Modafinil in the Treatment of Residual Excessive Daytime Sleepiness in the Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome
Ruth N. Kingshott,Marjorie Vennelle,Emma L. Coleman,Heather M. Engleman,Thomas W. Mackay,Neil J. Douglas +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that modafinil may improve some aspects of alertness in patients with SAHS who remain sleepy during CPAP therapy, but further studies are required to assess the significance of the reduction in CPAP use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bispectral index values and spectral edge frequency at different stages of physiologic sleep.
TL;DR: Although both BIS and SEF decreased with increasing sleep depth, the distribution of values at each sleep depth was considerable, with overlap between each sleep stage, and neither BIS nor SEF reliably indicated conventionally determined sleep stages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sleep-Disordered Breathing as a Risk Factor for Cerebrovascular Disease A Case-Control Study in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attacks
Nigel McArdle,Renata L. Riha,Marjorie Vennelle,Emma L. Coleman,Martin Dennis,Charles Warlow,Neil J. Douglas +6 more
TL;DR: OSAH does not appear to be strongly associated with TIAs, and the primary outcome measure, the apnea/hypopnea index, was the same for cases and controls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical audit of subjects with snoring & sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome fitted with mandibular repositioning splint.
Bilgay Izci,James P. McDonald,Emma L. Coleman,Thomas W. Mackay,Neil J. Douglas,Heather M. Engleman +5 more
TL;DR: Continuance with MRS may be low and linked to tolerance problems, and continued use of MRS therapy was associated with a higher number of teeth, low marital satisfaction perceived by partners and greater improvement in symptoms reported by patients and partners.
