Active clinical trials for "Sleep Apnea Syndromes"

Children with hypotonic upper airway obstruction have a high prevalence of severe obstructive sleep apnea, which if not treated has significant clinical consequence. Available treatment approaches, such as surgery and positive airway pressure, show limited efficacy and adherence. The multidisciplinary team has developed and now proposes to further test a non-surgical, well-tolerated nasopharyngeal airway device that in initial patients has resolved even extremely severe obstructive sleep apnea, and improved patient and family quality of life.

High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) ventilation therapy was found to improve the severity of obstructive sleep apnea in non-stroke subjects. The investigators hypothesized that HFNC might be effective in stroke patients with dysphagia who needed nasogastric tube feeding and can not receive continuous positive airway pressure ventilation for obstructive sleep apnea.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the SleepFlex program for treatment of mild to moderate OSA

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In people with OSA, the upper airways can narrow or close repetitively while sleeping. These breathing interruptions lead to reduction of oxygen in the blood or short arousals from sleep. Before a treatment can be approved for people to take, researchers do clinical trials to better understand its safety and how well it works. In this trial, the researchers want to learn more about how well BAY2586116 works in a small number of participants with OSA. The trial will include about 160 men and women who have OSA and are at least 18 years old. Women can only be included in this trial if they are not able to have children naturally. In this trial, the participants will take BAY2586116 and a placebo. A placebo looks like a treatment but does not have any medicine in it. All of the participants will take BAY2586116 through a nasal spray. They will also take the placebo as a nasal spray. This will be a crossover trial. This means all the participants will take both trial treatments one after the other, but in a different order. The participants will take each treatment once a day for 7 days. The researchers will use a measurement called the apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI) to measure the severity of the participants' OSA. The researchers will then compare the participants' AHI scores when they take BAY2586116 and when they take the placebo. During study, the participants will visit their trial site 5 times. At these visits the doctors will take blood samples, do physical examinations and check the participants' heart health using an electrocardiogram (ECG). They will also ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and if they have any medical problems. At 3 of the visits, the participants will stay at the trial site overnight. At these visits, the doctors will calculate the number of times the participants stop breathing per hour of sleep. After treatment, the participants will have a final visit 7 days later so the doctors can check their health.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) is the reference treatment of patients suffering from Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS).This device functions as a pneumatic stent that stabilizes the upper airway, prevents periodic collapses during sleep.The correction of abnormal respiratory events during sleep allows improvement of symptoms related to OSAS and restores quality of life.The purpose of this study is to validate the efficacy of a new CPAP brand developed by Sleepinnov©.

The prevalence of sleep disorders has achieved epidemic proportions in Western countries. Despite this, assessment and treatment of sleep disorders remains infrequent, unattainable, and often costly. Dayzz is aware of the need for easily accessible, user-friendly, and affordable treatment strategies for known sleep conditions. This research proposes a randomized controlled outcome study aimed to validate a, digitized, cost-effective mobile app which assesses and manages insomnia and CPAP adherence in persons with sleep apnea. The app's sleep training protocols recommend life-style and behavioral changes and tracks these changes with the aim of improving sleep and well-being. In this study, the dayzz app digital treatment protocol will be compared to the standard treatment for these sleep conditions by a sleep professional.

The exact prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing in pregnant women is not known. The results of a analysis of a small cohort of 105 pregnant women adjusted to body mass index estimate a prevalence of 8.4% in first quarter and 19.7% in the third quarter. In this context, this study proposes to assess the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing in pregnant women of the Private Hospital of the Loire and to identify the risks associated with these disorders by systematically proposing a polysomnography.

It is known that perioperative respiratory complications occur more often in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients during general anesthesia. Although there are prospective RCTs in this area, the need for further and larger studies remains due to the heterogenity of the results. Moreover, the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in OSAS patients undergoing surgery in Turkey and the predictive factors affecting the respiratory adverse events are uncertain. Therefore, in this prospective observational cohort study, it was aimed to determine the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications and the predictor factors associated with patient, anesthesia and surgery in surgical patients with a confirmed or highly suspected OSAS diagnosis undergoing general anesthesia.

In this study, we aim to determine whether combined tolterodine and CPAP therapy is a more effective treatment for patients with OSAS than CPAP treatment only.

It was aimed to investigate the effect of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) applied at different intensities on systemic inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with moderate obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). In the study, 32 male patients diagnosed with moderate OSAS will be included in the study. Participants will then be divided into 2 groups by block randomization. In the three-blind planned study; the first group will receive high-intensity %60 maximum expiratory pressure (MEP) EMST training, and the second group will be given low-intensity 30% of MEP, EMST training for 12 weeks. Disease-related symptoms, disease severity apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), oxidative stress index (OSI) and systemic inflammation level, exercise capacity, respiratory muscle strength, sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, and fatigue severity will be evaluated before and after the study.
