Active clinical trials for "Sleep Apnea, Obstructive"

This is a randomized, double blind, cross-over study of the combination of atomoxetine and oxybutynin (ato-oxy) in children with DS and OSA documented by polysomnography (PSG). Participants will receive high dose ato-oxy for four weeks as well as low dose ato-oxy for four weeks in random order. During the high dose ato-oxy period, participants will take 5 mg oxybutynin and 0.5mg/kg/day (max 40 mg) atomoxetine nightly for one week. Atomoxetine dose will then be increased to 1.2 mg/kg/day (max 80 mg). During the low dose ato-oxy period, participants will take 5 mg oxybutynin and 0.5mg/kg/day (max 40 mg) atomoxetine. Dosing of the study treatment will occur approximately 30 minutes prior to bedtime. Participants who withdraw from the study will not be replaced. Study participants will undergo eligibility screening that will include an initial screening to determine whether non- PSG enrollment criteria are met, followed by a 1 night in-lab PSG and health-related quality of life assessment for participants who qualify based on non-PSG criteria. For participants who are eligible and enroll in the study, the screening PSG night will serve as the baseline measure for apnea hypopnea index (AHI) and other PSG endpoints. On the final night of dosing for both high dose ato-oxy and low-dose ato-oxy, participants will return for inpatient PSG and health-related quality of life assessment. The primary efficacy endpoint is the change in obstructive AHI from baseline (high dose ato-oxy vs. low dose ato-oxy).

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold-standard treatment for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), the most common sleep-disordered breathing in the overall population. CPAP has shown to be effective in reducing apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) as well as other OSA polysomnographic outcomes. However, the effectiveness of this device on OSA daily functioning and mood disturbances outcomes still remains unclear. The ADIPOSA study is aimed at determining the effects of three-month CPAP use on anxiety-depression symptoms in patients with OSA. Participants will be adults previously diagnosed with OSA who will be allocated to a CPAP-treatment group. Outcomes will be measured at baseline and intervention end-point (three months) including daytime sleepiness, daily functioning and mood (anxiety and depression symptoms), AHI, other neurophysical and cardiorespiratory polysomnographic outcomes, and body weight. ADIPOSA may serve to establish the effectiveness of CPAP on daytime functioning and mood disturbances commonly found on patients with OSA and, in turn, on other OSA outcomes related to anxiety-depression symptoms.

Intention to review patient letters from sleep clinic to see if their lung function fit in with Dysynapsis in wheezing patients or if it is true asthma

The purpose of study JZP110-401 is to evaluate solriamfetol pharmacokinetics (PK) in the breast milk and plasma of healthy postpartum women following the administration of the drug. The study also aims to estimate the potential daily solriamfetol dose received by the infant from the breast milk of the nursing mother. The safety and tolerability of single oral doses of solriamfetol will also be assessed.

A study to evaluate the respiratory safety of TS-142 in patients with mild obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea.

Rapid maxillary expansion (RME) is a commonly used orthodontic treatment in patients with maxillary constriction to provide skeletal expansion, correct posterior crossbite and resolve naso-respiratory problems by reducing oral respiration.The aim of this randomized controlled trial was to evaluate the effects of tooth-borne, tooth tissue-borne and bone-borne RME appliances on sleep quality with polygraphy. The null hypothesis was that there is no difference for the sleep quality between the appliances.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) syndrome is a disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction that occur during sleep. The standard treatment for apnea remains a device consisting of a pump and nasal mask that provide continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). The major disadvantage of CPAP is the relatively low compliance. Appscent developed a non-contact effortless bedside solution based on the following: odors modify respiratory patterns during wake . Mildly trigeminal and pure olfactory odorants do not arouse or wake.

• Background and study aims: Obstructive sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder. It causes breathing to stop and start repeatedly during sleep. There are several types of sleep apnea, the most common of which is obstructive sleep apnea. This type of apnea occurs when an individual's throat muscles intermittently relax and block the airway during sleep. The classic treatment for this disease is based on weight loss, and exercise, and the use of a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine. Myofunctional therapy (MT) is one of the newest treatments for sleep-disordered breathing. MT is based on daily exercises of the throat muscles in an attempt to strengthen them and facilitate opening of the airway. Who can participate? Patients diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and aged between 18-75 years. What does the study involve? Participants will be randomly allocated to either use of the "AirwayGym" smartphone app or no treatment for 3 months. The AirwayGym app provides instructions on how to perform exercises to strengthen the throat muscles and reminds participants to perform the exercises for 20 min per day. Participants will be assessed monthly at the clinic. What are the possible benefits and risks of participating? Benefits: Curing sleep apnea syndrome. There are no significant risks for participants. Where is the study run from? Hospital Quirónsalud Marbella (Spain) When is the study starting and how long is it expected to run for? October 2018 to January 2021 Who is funding the study? Investigator initiated and funded Who is the main contact? Dr. Carlos O'Connor Reina, coconnor@us.es

This study evaluates the combination of two drugs (AD128), to treat obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity. After a baseline evaluation and during 7 days, half of the participants will randomly receive this drug combination (AD128) and the other will receive a placebo, i.e. a drug without pharmaceutical effect. Neither the participants, nor the investigators will know in which arm participants are until the end of the study. After one week of trial, an evaluation will be perform and will be follow by one week without any treatment. During the third and last week of trial, there will be a crossover of the groups, i.e. the participants of the first group who took the two drugs (AD128) during the first week will take a placebo and those who took the placebo will take the drugs combination.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is the most common and serious of the sleep disorders. Long-term, OSA is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, with a number of adverse cardiovascular, neurocognitive, metabolic, and daytime functioning consequences. No drugs are currently approved for OSA treatment. This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, cross-over, inpatient phase 2 clinical trial to examine the efficacy and the safety of a fixed dose level of AD128 in patients with OSA.
