Filter by:This investigation is a prospective non-blinded and non-randomized clinical investigation. This investigation is designed to evaluate the performance (leak and comfort) as well as participant's overall acceptance of the Jupiter mask amongst OSA participants. A total number of up to 15 OSA participants who currently use full face masks will be recruited for the trial.
The purpose of the study is to test the workflow of an auto-titrating mandibular positioner in its intended setting. Participants with obstructive sleep apnea will use the device to determine their eligibility for oral appliance therapy and provide feedback on usability of the device.
The purpose of this research study is to test a new approach for treating patients with obstructive sleep apnea and/or snoring. The new nasal device, nastent (NAS: nasal airway stent), appears to be a useful alternative or additive treatment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the breathing patterns of women who undergo cesarean delivery with spinal or epidural morphine for post-operative pain control in the first day after surgery. Some women who undergo cesarean delivery may be at risk for respiratory complications related to opiate administration for post-operative pain. The primary aim of this study is to evaluate post-operative minute ventilation in women who undergo cesarean delivery using a novel method of non-invasive minute ventilation monitoring, and to see if there are predictive risk factors that may predispose women to post-operative hypoventilation.
This investigation is designed to evaluate the performance as well as the patients overall acceptance of the mask.
Prospective, non-randomized, open label study
Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) regardless of any other associated risk factor can lead to accelerated aging. The study of aging-related Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is difficult because of associated risk factors (diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity), promoting themselves aging. The investigators propose to compare a group of OSAS patients free of any associated pathology, to subjects matched for age, sex, smoking and body mass index (BMI)
This is a small pilot study that will compare High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) therapy to oxygen nasal cannula therapy on infants who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and are scheduled for a clinically ordered sleep study called polysomnography (PSG). The HFNC procedure uses humidified room air delivered by nasal cannula at higher pressures and will test if HFNC can control OSA in infants better or as well as low flow nasal oxygen, the current clinical standard of care. All the infants in the study will have a brief test period of about 3 to 4 hours with the HFNC before participants begin their standard clinical PSG for titration of oxygen by nasal cannula for treatment of OSA.
The investigation is a prospective non-blinded and semi-randomized clinical investigation. The investigation is designed to assess the alternative sizing model which the trial mask concept is based on and how it compares to a conventional sizing present in the Prototype Full Face Mask (PFFM) mask.
Obstructive sleep apnea is a risk factor for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, by unknown mechanisms. The investigators hypothesize that sleep apnea changes glucose and lipid metabolism during sleep, which over time could lead to diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This study examines metabolic changes during sleep in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Patients accustomed to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy are enrolled to undergo sleep studies, either on CPAP therapy or after withdrawing from CPAP for 3 nights. During sleep, blood samples are obtained so that metabolic function can be compared between sleep apnea and CPAP nights.
