Disrupted Sleep and Concurrent Ectopy or Atrial Fibrillation
Whereas the available evidence mostly supports chronic sleep disruption as a risk factor for incident AF, less is known about the near-term risk of a discrete atrial fibrillation (AF) episode following a night of disrupted or poor-quality sleep. This prospective, randomized, case-crossover study aims to examine the acute effects of …
Functional Improvement in OSA and COPD With a Telehealth LifeStyle and Exercise Intervention
The investigators will conduct a Type I hybrid effectiveness-implementation study to test an integrated telehealth intervention among 400 overweight and obese patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). The investigators will include eligible participants receiving primary care at one of five Department of Veterans Affairs …
Validation of Belun Ring Gen3 Deep Learning Algorithms With Subxiphoid Body Sensor
Hypothesis: BR's Gen3 DL algorithms, combined with its subxiphoid body sensor, can accurately diagnose OSA, categorize its severity, identify REM OSA and supine OSA, and detect central sleep apnea (CSA). Primary Objective: To rigorously evaluate the overall performance of the BR with Gen3 DL Algorithms and Subxiphoid Body Sensor in …
The Cardiovascular Consequences of Sleep Apnea Plus COPD (Overlap Syndrome)
Major progress has been made in the area of cardiovascular disease, but we believe that further progress will involve mechanistically addressing underlying respiratory causes including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The most common cause of death in COPD is cardiovascular, although mechanisms are unknown. OSA …
Optimization of Pediatric Tonsillectomy to IMprove AnaLgesia
The purpose of this study is to compare the use of short acting opioids (fentanyl/hydromorphone) with long acting opioids (methadone) for pain control following tonsillectomy surgery in children and adolescents.
Obstructive Sleep Apnoea and Difficult Asthma (OSADA)
The OSADA (Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Difficult Asthma) trial is an open-label, randomized control trial investigating the impact of diagnosing and treating obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) on a asthma control in patients with difficult-to-control asthma. Participants will undergo home-based sleep studies to assess for OSA and are then allocated to …
Sleep Apnea in Elderly
Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB or sleep apnea) is very common among elderly Veterans and leads to increased morbidity and mortality in this population. The proposal aims to identity whether oxygen, finasteride and acetazolamide can be effective in reducing unstable breathing and eliminating sleep apnea in the elderly via different mechanisms. This …
Impact of Positive Airway Pressure Therapy on Clinical Outcomes in Older Veterans With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Comorbid Obstructive Sleep Apnea (Overlap Syndrome)
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) are highly prevalent chronic respiratory diseases in the Veteran population. OSA co-occurring with COPD, known as Overlap Syndrome (OVS), is a complex chronic medical condition associated with grave consequences. OVS is highly prevalent in Veterans. Veterans with OVS may be …
Sleep Apnea in Paralympic Ontario-Resident aThletes With Spinal Cord Injury (SPORTS) Study
This single arm clinical trial will assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among para-athletes living with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) is effective in improving cognitive impairment, in reducing fatigue, depression, anxiety, and overall quality of …
ENhancing Outcomes in Cognitive Impairment Through Use of Home Sleep ApNea Testing
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which causes abnormal pauses in breathing during sleep, is common in patients with vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) and Alzheimer's disease (AD), and exacerbates the cognitive deficits seen in these conditions. OSA is typically treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), which has been shown to improve …
