Filter by:The goal of this descriptive, cross-sectional survey design is to determine the effect of public awareness video on the basic knowledge regarding sleep apnea syndrome or glaucoma and traffic accidents in normal population The main questions it aims to answer are: - To assess the attitudes toward the health-related cause of traffic accidents, mainly focused on obstructive sleep apnea and glaucoma among Thai people who viewed the local language translated versions of the public awareness video. - To assess the feedbacks of the public awareness video. Participants will be ask to complete a set of questionnaires containing 3 parts - pre-test part - educational video part - post-test part
This cross-sectional prospective study will assess the potential association of more severe sleep apnea after spinal cord injury with more intense neuropathic pain, more severe spasticity, and more significant cardiovascular abnormalities including cardiac arrhythmias and blood pressure fluctuations. In addition, the participants' experience when undergoing home-based sleep screening test or hospital-unattended sleep screening test will be assessed in a semi-structured interview.
Evaluation of upper airway with Magnetic Resonance and polysomnographic at the pre and post operative of 23 women having undergone bariatric surgery (with the Y-Roux technique) for treatment of obesity.
To study whether Somfit is substantially equivalent to the existing approved devices for full polysomnography and home sleep apnea testing
Obstructive sleep apnea is characterised by an abnormal upper airway collapsibility. Upper airway collapsibility can be evaluated through critical closure airway pressure (Pcrit). Didgeridoo is a traditional australian musical instrument involving circular respiration, a breathing technique involving mouth muscles. We hypothesize that didgeridoo players have a lower risk of airway collapsibility due to circular breathing technique
The research topic is to explore the effectiveness of abdominal breathing on improving of depression, anxiety, and heart rate variability in obstructive sleep apnea patients with depressive symptoms. This study method adopts an experimental research design and divided into experimental group and control group by random sampling. Experimental group receives abdominal breathing training, whereas control group without receiving abdominal breathing training.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of nasal desobstruction surgery (septoplasty, septorhinoplasty or total ethmoidectomy) on sleep quality, assessed by the variation of the Wake after sleep onset (WASO), in patients presenting with sleep disorders and severe nasal obstruction.
Childhood obesity increases significantly, and determines several complications in childhood and adulthood, and the worldwide prevalence of childhood obesity has shown a rapid increase in recent decades. The severity of obesity-related risk factors is directly linked to body fat topography, and variations in body fat distribution in obese children can be of high value in predicting future health risks, like of cardiovascular disease in adulthood. There is a potential correlation between obesity and sleep disorders, increasing the predisposition to obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, that is a frequent complication, affecting up to 80% of obese children and adolescents. In relation to postural control, and that anthropometric indicators interfere with children's postural balance, already verified by balance assessment using computerized dynamic posturography. Several studies show that physical activity in childhood and adolescence can influence healthy habits in adulthood. Children and youth ages 5 to 17 should accumulate at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous-intensity physical activity daily. It is important to emphasize that the COVID-19 has impacted every aspect of healthcare delivery, and therefore Telerehabilitation has been satisfactorily addressed in reabilitation In the exercise recommendations for children, exercise programs performing aerobic and resistance exercises at a high level of intensity, on a frequent basis (3-5 days a week) for 30-80 minutes, seeking intensity of 50-90% of the maximum heart rate (HRmax), can be used and are shown to be efficient for the treatment of obesity. Therefore the High-intensity interval training (HIIT) describes physical exercise that is characterized by brief, intermittent bursts of vigorous activity, interspersed with periods of rest, cab generate favorable metabolic adaptations on sleep and body weight loss. Outcome Measures: Primary Outcome Measures - The effects of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) and high-intensity functional training (HIFT) through Telerehabilitation on body composition and Obstructive sleep apnea (assessed by body mass index and bioimpedanceand polysomnography type 4) Secondary Outcome Measures - Functional performance of children and adolescents (3 minute step test) - Balance (balance assessments with Wii Balance board) Inclusion Criteria: - Age ≥ 6 to 17 years; - Confirmed obesity children by body mass index acorrding to the age
This investigator-initiated study aims to determine the effects of BAY2586116 (a novel TASK channel blocker nasal spray) on sleep apnoea severity and the potential influence of route of breathing.
The purpose of this study is to to compare oxygenation and ventilation on spontaneously ventilating obese patients or those with diagnosed or undiagnosed Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) undergoing day colonoscopy under Propofol based sedation, between the SuperNO2VA Et™ nasal positive airway pressure (PAP) device and routine care with face mask for oxygen (O2).
