View clinical trials related to Apnea Syndrome.
Filter by:Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a common medical condition in children. Diagnosis is based on polysomnography . We conducted an open prospective non randomised clinical trial to assess the efficacy of a new medical device called SUNRISE.
The present prospective cohort study (not randomized) analyses the value of screening and treatment of SAHS in the management of patients with AF refractory to antiarrhythmics drugs, potentially candidates for ablation. Patients at low risk of suffering from SAHS will follow conventional management of their AF, according to the usual criteria of the Arrhythmia Unit. Patients with high or intermediate risk of SAHS, will undergo respiratory polygraphy. If the result is positive, they will be treated as standard for this syndrome and their heart rate will be monitored for 3 months. After this, the patient's arrhythmic load will be reevaluated differentiating patients into two groups, those that must be ablated from those that have improved their condition and the clinical criteria is no longer ablation but follow-up.
Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs) are now a reliable alternative to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatments for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) . Despite good tolerance and efficacy, there are still barriers limiting the widespread use of MAD and its acceptance in OSA routine clinical practice. Various MAD designs currently exist and constantly emerge on the market without clear evidence regarding the best technical choice and the cost-effectiveness compromise. Although these MAD has been tested in term of efficacy, no study has tested the difference between MADs in term of efficacy, tolerance and patient satisfaction. The aim of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of two MADs - custom-made titratable MAD (NarvalTM) and customizable titratable MAD (TALITM), over a 3-month period, in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
