Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Oral appliance
Treatment: Drugs - Oxygen
Other interventions - Oral appliance plus oxygen
Other interventions - No treatment

Experimental: All patients - Patients will receive all four interventions in randomized order.

Note: Data will not be analyzed separately for the 16 cross-over combinations of intervention order:

Interventions: Oral appliance \| Oral appliance plus oxygen \| Oxygen \| No treatment


Treatment: Devices: Oral appliance
An oral appliance (dental mouthpiece) will be used to improve upper airway patency. Patients who do not have their own custom dental oral appliance (various brands, commonly Herbst/Somnomed) will be provided with a device (BluePro, BlueSom) for the duration of the study.

Patients will also be administered sham (room air) at 4 L/min via nasal cannula.

Treatment: Drugs: Oxygen
Supplemental oxygen will be delivered at 4 L/min via nasal cannula to improve ventilatory control stability.

Other interventions: Oral appliance plus oxygen
Both treatments will be administered simultaneously.

Other interventions: No treatment
Subjects will not wear an oral appliance, and will be administered sham (room air) at 4 L/min via nasal cannula.
