Filter by:This clinical trial is designed to evaluate the performance, comfort, and usability of a new nasal pillows mask for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in a home environment.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Asate Silent Sleep Training on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity in patients with mild to moderate OSA. The Asate Silent Sleep Training is a muscle strengthening program that uses exercise equipment (a musical instrument that is based on the didgeridoo). The equipment is connected to an application, which provides instruction on how to perform the strengthening exercises, measures the sound produced by the musical instrument, which enables the app to provide feedback on whether the individual should blow less or more and also tracks adherence to the strengthening program.
This study examines the combined effects of an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), antioxidant supplementation, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy on the lowering of 24-hour blood pressure in persons with moderate to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). All participants will undergo CPAP therapy as prescribed by their doctor; however, half of the participants will receive the combined ARB and antioxidant treatment while the other half of the participants will receive a placebo.
This study will evaluate the effect of treatment of obstructive sleep apnea on insulin sensitivity in pregnant women. Women in their third trimester of pregnancy will be randomized to receive treatment or no treatment for one month.
This study purpose is to evaluate the association between Retinal Vein Occlusion and Obstructive Sleep Apnea.
Participants will have an overnight polysomnography (recording apnea-hypopnea index), MRI (brain structure), and a sleep symptoms questionnaire for baseline data. Participants will then undergo 6 weeks of whole body vibration (using the whole body vibration device), 3 times a week for 30 minutes sessions. After 6 weeks, participants will have complete another polysomnography, MRI and sleep questionnaire.
This trial studies information from a home sleep apnea machine to evaluate obstructive sleep apnea in patients with stage III-IV head and neck cancer. Sleep apnea (trouble breathing during sleep) can occur in head and neck cancer patients who have swelling in their neck. Wearing a sleep apnea machine overnight may help doctors evaluate obstructive sleep apnea in patients with head and neck cancer.
Obesity is a major risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, OSA is still largely under diagnosed in patients with a high cardiovascular risk. In this population the STOP-BANG questionnaire facilitates OSA screening. Moreover, blood bicarbonate concentration is a simple tool to screen for chronic respiratory disease and if elevated, is a marker of cardiometabolic comorbidities in obese patients. A combination of blood bicarbonate concentration and STOP BANG score could provide a cost-effective method of screening for OSA in obese patients. Such screening could enable earlier management and might significantly reduce the costs of treatment and improve the quality of life of patients at 2 years.
- 1. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) could be performed with or without extracorporeal circulation (ECC). - 2. OSA (Obstructive Sleep Apnea) could be influenced by in intravenous perfusion. - 3. ECC could influence the amount of intravenous perfusion administered to the patient. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of ECC on the development of OSA.
The purpose of this study is to assess whether intravenous peri-operative Dexmedetomidine reduces opioid requirements and or improves pain control after Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
