Filter by:OSAS has adverse effects on the functional capacity and quality of life of patients. This study aims to examine the impact of yoga on aerobic capacity, respiratory muscle strength, and cognitive performance in patients with OSAS. Patients will be randomly divided into two groups training (yoga) and control groups. The physical and demographic characteristics of the cases who signed the consent form will be recorded. Anthropometric measurements, circumference measurements, respiratory muscle strength (MIP and MEP), six-minute walking test (6MWT), and cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) will be performed. Corsi Blocks Touch Test, Continuous Performance Test, and Stroop Test will be applied to evaluate cognitive performance. The Pittsburg Sleep Index will be used for sleep quality, the Epworth Sleepiness Scale for sleepiness, and the SF-36 scales for health-related quality of life. Subjects with OSAS in the yoga group will be included in group-based yoga sessions of 60 minutes, 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Unilateral basal and apical thoracic expansion exercises will be taught to the patients with OSAS in the control group in the first session. They will be followed as a home program. At the end of the sixth and twelfth week, the evaluations will be made again and the result measurements will be taken.
this study aims to assess the validity of BASET scoring as a new potential tool for diagnosis and grading the severity of OSAS patients and as screening of the risk factors of OSAS.
this study aims to evaluate the subjective symptoms, clinical and radiographic signs of temporomandibular disorders related to the use of CPAP, MAD and physical therapy in the treatment of patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
This is a randomized crossover trial of children diagnosed with positional obstructive sleep apnea (POSA) on a baseline polysomnogram (PSG). Participants will undergo two further PSGs in random order over 4 weeks to assess the efficacy of a positional sleep therapy belt compared to a control for treating POSA.
a monocentric,non interventional, prospective study to compare cardiovascular risk in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and Mandibular Advancement Orthosis.
The purpose of this study is to estimated prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in 4-8 year old children. To date, most studies estimating prevalence of sleep apnea in young children are based on utilizing subjective questionnaires. The few studies that have utilized objective sleep measures have tested only those children suspected of sleep apnea based on subjective questionnaires, finding prevalence in the range of 1-13%. Untreated OSA is associated with significant morbidities in children, affecting their behavior, cognitive development, cardiovascular-and cardio metabolic health, endocrine and immune function. Better understanding of prevalence of sleep apnea in young children should be beneficial. This study will help to understand the prevalence of sleep apnea in each age-group of children 4-8 years of age and whether certain groups, such as children with obesity or asthma have higher prevalence and/or more severe disease. The primary objective of this study is to get better understanding of prevalence and severity of sleep apnea in young children using objective sleep measures for all participants.
A study on the effects of daridorexant on nighttime respiratory function in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a type of sleep-related breathing disorders that is characterized by a sleep-related constriction (obstruction) of the upper airways. The treatment with continuous application of positive airway pressure (CPAP) via respiratory mask forms the therapeutical standard of OSA. The autoCPAP (automatic positive airway pressure: APAP) therapy is an additional treatment option for patients with more unstable conditions (e.g. due to sleep position) which is characterized by a dynamic adaption of the applied airway pressure according to patients therapeutical needs. Device usage time and therapy adherence are crucial for treatment success. The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of a digital patient support (DPS) tool, complementary to standard care on continuous and automatic positive airway pressure (CPAP, APAP) adherence and daytime sleepiness after 12 weeks in patients diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). All patients with apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 30 per hour are prospectively included and randomized to receive standard care (SC) or standard care with personalized DPS via prisma APP prototype version (SC+DPS). In both arms, initiation of therapy and standardized therapy control after 12 weeks is carried out identically. Patients in the SC+DPS arm received additionally automated feedback on their therapy and motivational messages, as well as therapy recommendations.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a growing health concern affecting up to 60 % of population with cardiovascular disease. Despite the high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with this syndrome, the substantial inconvenience and cost of polysomnography recordings may delay routine evaluation. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosis. However, this is a costly and time-consuming examination. Sympathoadrenergic balance obtained from the routine Holter monitoring suggesting the presence of OSAS, can enable patients to be guided and their PSGs to be primarily held.Abnormalities in nocturnal cyclical heart rate (HR) variations have previously been described in sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with PSG, holter electrocardiogram has the advantages of pervasion, lower cost, no need for overnight hospitalization, greater similarity to normal conditions, and good compliance. The observation of changes in heart rate associated with apneic events has a potential to be used as an alternative technique for identification of subjects with OSAS. In regard to the feasibility of screening OSAS by HRV analysis by holter electrocardiogram monitoring, it has already been reported that a 24-h electrocardiographic monitoring might be useful to diagnose OSAS. It became a more feasible technique to use following the development of a convenient recorder for OSAS screening by analyzing changes in heart rate.
The main objective of this study is to provide an adequately powered study that would provide evidence on the non-inferiority of ANNE to a Home Sleep Test (HST).
