Filter by:The main objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of the ANNE Sleep system for the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults
Study was planned to investigate the effect of pranayama on dyspnea, daytime sleepiness, cognitive function, quality of life, activities of daily living, functional exercise capacity, physical activity level, sleep quality, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, depression and anxiety in OSAS.
This observational survey with retrospective follow-up is designed to study the daytime sleepiness based on Epworth Sleepiness Scale a good way or not to assess Taiwanese with suspected obstructive sleep apnea.
This study has been developed in order to demonstrate the validity of the Sparkle respiratory effort signal.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the clinical application value of inverse ratio ventilation in obese patients during induction of general anesthesia by studying the effect of inverse ratio ventilation on the safe apnea time.
In this project,the investigators aim to establish a Collaborative Care Model of TCM and Western Medicine to improve the quality of life and symptoms of AR with OSA children and educate care-givers diet and massage information to improve self-care ability and alleviate anxiety for parents. In addition, the investigators will use portable oxymeter to detect the change of SpO2 and respiratory arousal index daily at home and evaluate sensitivity and specificity of portable oxymeter device applied in OSA. The investigators want to give holistic health care for participants and care-givers by this project. In addition, the investigators will build a training environment to provide medical education and training opportunity to teach medical students and clinician the knowledge of pediatric allergic rhinitis and obstructive sleep apnea by caring patients and learning from clinical cases.
Literature shows that patients with obesity and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), both occurring independently, are more likely to develop cardiovascular diseases and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Assuming that ventricular depolarization is more stable than repolarization then QT interval parameters may be used for heart muscle repolarization assessment for those groups of patients. There were 121 patients included in the study, both - women and men, aging from 35-65 with visceral obesity. Only healthy patients were included - the ones who were not treated for any chronic disease, taking QT elongating drugs, or were not treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy at that time.
The research aims to assess the impact on quality of life of surgically maxillary expansion in adult patients followed for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of more timely care for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on adherence to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy at three months after treatment initiation. The secondary objectives are to determine if earlier care improves the treatment effect of PAP on patient reported sleepiness, quality of life and patient satisfaction. We will also evaluate the impact of shorter wait times on patient engagement in therapy by assessing initial acceptance of PAP therapy, patient activation and self-efficacy with respect to OSA treatment. The study hypothesis is that the early management strategy will be superior to usual care with respect to the primary outcome of PAP adherence at three months.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) syndrome is a disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction that occur during sleep. The standard treatment for apnea remains a device consisting of a pump and nasal mask that provide continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The major disadvantage of CPAP is the relatively low compliance. Appscent developed a non-contact effortless bedside solution based on the following: odors modify respiratory patterns during wake . Mildly trigeminal and pure olfactory odorants do not arouse or wake.
