Table 5.
Agreement in configuration in the lateral position comparing the boil-and-bite MAD and jaw thrust.
| Level | Configuration | Jaw Thrust (N) | Boil-and-Bite MAD (N) | Overall Percentage of Agreement | κ | Interpretation κ |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| V | A-P | 2 | 3 | 100% | 1.00 | Perfect |
| Lateral | 4 | 3 | ||||
| Concentric | 4 | 2 | ||||
| O | Lateral | 16 | 17 | 100% | NA | NA |
| T | A-P | 1 | 7 | 100% | NA | NA |
| E | A-P | 0 | 2 | CND | NA | NA |
| Lateral | 0 | 0 |
A-P = anteroposterior, CND = could not be determined, E = epiglottis, MAD = mandibular advancement device, NA = not applicable, O = oropharynx, T = tongue base, V = velum.
