NCT ID: NCT02005445 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment to Improve Cardiac Rehabilitation

Start date: October 1, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This is a randomized clinical trial in U.S. Veterans to evaluate the impact of treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the effectiveness of cardiac rehabilitation, including impact on exercise capacity, disability, and quality of life.

NCT ID: NCT01961648 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Respiratory Drive on Obstructive Apnea

Start date: August 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is being conducted to determine whether inhaling exhaled carbon dioxide is effective for the treatment of sleep apnea. A mild increase in this gas can stimulate the respiratory drive by 2-3 fold, which in turn can stimulate the upper airway dilator muscles and decrease the severity of obstructive sleep apnea by at least 50% in selected patients.

NCT ID: NCT01946464 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Novel Technique for Face Mask Ventilation

Start date: September 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

This study is being done to see if we can improve the way we manage patients' airways. In some instances patients who have a beard, who do not have teeth or have breathing problems during sleep present a challenge to the anesthesiologist. In such patients, it is sometimes difficult to provide air/oxygen for breathing using a mask. The study doctors would like to investigate a new method for holding a mask on the face of those patients. They are interested in comparing a new method against two older methods. They believe the new method will deliver a larger amount of air to the lungs. This information may help doctors provide better care for patients who have beards, no teeth, or breathing problems during sleep.

NCT ID: NCT01901055 Terminated - Type 2 Diabetes Clinical Trials

Diabetes-Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment Trial

DOTT
Start date: February 13, 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Diabetes self-management is important to help adults with type 2 diabetes achieve glucose control. Obstructive sleep apnea often co-exists with type 2 diabetes and may act as a barrier to diabetes self-management and glucose control. We will examine if treatment of obstructive sleep apnea with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), combined with diabetes education, results in improved diabetes self-management and glucose control.

NCT ID: NCT01889472 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Impact of Interface With/Without Oral Appliance of Sleep Apnea Treatment

Start date: June 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

CPAP is the most effective treatment of obstructive sleep apnea. Oro-nasal masks may be used in case of mouth leaks but these are associated with higher positive pressure needs and lower compliance to treatment. The present investigation evaluates if CPAP compliance would increase when an oral appliance is used in combination with a nasal mask compared to the use of an oro-nasal mask. Eligible patients are those demonstrating a low compliance when using an oro-nasal mask during CPAP therapy. Patients will be treated with automatic CPAP with one of the above-detailed interfaces for 4 weeks and data will be extracted from the machine report in each condition.

NCT ID: NCT01865864 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Effect of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy on Changes of Blood Pressure Between Day and Night

Start date: July 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

to test whether using CPAP can restore the normal pattern of drop of blood pressure during sleep.

NCT ID: NCT01852305 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Bariatric Surgical Patients

Start date: April 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to develop a novel pathway to decrease the cost and waiting time to manage bariatric surgical patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Hypotheses: Compared to the current perioperative pathway, the proposed novel pathway incorporating overnight oximetry and perioperative sleep apnea precautions is safe and more cost effective for evaluating and managing obstructive sleep apnea in the bariatric surgical patients. To decrease the cost and waiting time, we proposed a novel perioperative pathway to manage obstructive sleep apnea in the bariatric patients. In this pathway, the patient will be screened by the STOP-Bang questionnaire. The recruited patients will be randomized into two groups: The STOP-Bang questionnaire score is ≥4 then you will be assigned to any one of these groups - sleep study group (group 1) or - oximetry group (group 2).

NCT ID: NCT01835080 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)

Start date: April 2013
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pulmonary arterial hypertension can worsen or even cause sleep apnea. It is hypothesized that if pulmonary arterial hypertension does indeed worsen or cause sleep apnea, then the treatment should first focus on the underlying pulmonary arterial hypertension instead of the sleep apnea. To determine if a person has sleep apnea, they will undergo one overnight polysomnogram (sleep study). If it is found that they have mild to moderate sleep apnea, then the subject will be invited to continue in the study and their pulmonary arterial hypertension will be treated by their managing primary physician. After the subject has had treatment for their pulmonary arterial hypertension, the study center will have them return for a follow up sleep study to learn the effects of pulmonary arterial hypertension treatment management on their sleep apnea, 12-24 weeks after the first sleep study.

NCT ID: NCT01792583 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Start date: June 30, 2009
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

The primary objective of the Nuvigil/Provigil Pregnancy Registry is to characterize the pregnancy and fetal outcomes associated with Nuvigil and Provigil exposure during pregnancy.

NCT ID: NCT01772017 Terminated - Clinical trials for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

OPEN
Start date: October 2012
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Tongue Advancement Retainer Device in treating subjects with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and snoring.
