Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy for Upper Airway Evaluation in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Prospective, interventional cohort study of drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) to evaluate the upper airway in a cohort of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) surgical patients. This study has investigated the reliability of this technique, demonstrating moderate-substantial interrater and test-retest reliability. This research has also compared DISE findings to those of the …
Management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome by Expansion Palatoplasty
The study will be conducted to evaluate the outcome of expansion palatoplasty in management of OSAS.
Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome.
Sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome is a sleep-related respiratory disorder characterized by partial or total interruptions in breathing during sleep. The majority of syndromes involve an obstructive mechanism (OSA), caused by a reduction in the caliber of the upper airway (UA), most often associated with hypotonia of the surrounding muscles, preventing air …
Airway Muscle Activation on Sleep-disordered Breathing Events
The standard for treatment for people suffering from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome involves the use of Continuous, or Automatic Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP, APAP) machines, which work by delivering air via tubing and mask to a patient at pressures of up to 20cmH2O. This increased pressure is meant to …
Reboxetine for Sleep Apnoea After ENT Surgery
This pilot study will establish the feasibility of a larger trial to investigate whether reboxetine, a medication used to treat depression, can reduce the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) including increased blood oxygenation in post-surgical OSA patients where positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is either frequently poorly tolerated or …
Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction in Sleep Apnea
This double-blind placebo-controlled parallel group randomized study design will be used to test whether 4 weeks of atorvastatin 10 mg daily reduces levels of inflammatory markers in OSA patients treated with CPAP (standard of care). The purpose of this study is to investigate: 1) whether statins reduce endothelial inflammation and …
Reaching for Equity in Sleep Apnea Treatment (REST) Study
This study will test a brief telephonic health coaching intervention to improve adherence to positive airway pressure therapy for treatment of obstructive sleep apnea.
Comprehensive Respiratory Training Exercise Program in Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a multi-factorial sleep disorder. Complete collapse or partial collapse in the airway increases the risk of developing cardiovascular and kidney-related disease in OSA patients. Resulting in an increase in medical expenses and workload for the healthcare worker. Multilevel of upper airway muscles especially the genioglossus …
Phenotyping Mechanistic Pathways for Adverse Health Outcomes in Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent disorder with adverse neurocognitive and cardio-metabolic outcomes. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard therapeutic option to treat airway obstructions during sleep and thus, prevent its adverse cardiovascular and neurocognitive outcomes. Previous clinical trials, however, have largely failed to show …
Use of Intraoral Suction and Its Effects on Obstructive Sleep Apnea
To learn whether stabilization of the tongue using intraoral suction is tolerable and what effects this approach has on sleep parameters in obstructive sleep apnea.
