Improving Outcomes in Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea With Computational Fluid Dynamics
To create a validated computational tool to predict surgical outcomes for pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The first line of treatment for children with OSA is to remove their tonsils and adenoids; however, these surgeries do not always cure the patient. Another treatment, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) …
Ansa Cervicalis and Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation in OSA
Polysomnography (PSG) and drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) are widely used diagnostic studies for assessing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity and collapse patterns of the upper airway anatomy during sleep. Hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HNS) therapy for obstructive sleep apnea suffers from variable response at the level of the soft palate. The …
Pharmacological Activation of HMN for OSA Aim 2
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common and has major health implications but treatment options are limited. OSA patients show a marked reduction in upper airway (UA) dilator muscle activity at sleep onset and this phenomenon leads to increased collapsibility of UA compared to normal subjects. In this protocol the investigators …
Identifying Sleep Apnea Patients That Best Respond to Atomoxetine Plus Oxybutynin Therapy
Atomoxetine-plus-oxybutynin therapy (AtoOxy) has been shown to substantially reduce obstructive sleep apnea severity (OSA) in about half of patients. Here, the investigators will study which patients respond meaningfully to therapy using pathophysiological traits measured at baseline sleep studies.
Impact of Tele-visit on Patients Continous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Follow-up by Home Care Provider
To determine the impact of telecare on continous positive airway pressure (CPAP) patients follow up by home care provider (HCP)
Time Restricted Eating in Sleep Apnea
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent disorder that is associated with both cardiovascular and metabolic dysfunction, such as hypertension, increased blood glucose levels and diabetes, obesity, and nonalcoholic fatty liver. While continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), the best available OSA treatment, has been shown to improve blood pressure …
Effects of Physical Activity on OSA Severity Based on the Level of Fluid Shift
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by complete or partial upper-airway collapse during sleep associated with sleepiness. OSA causes severe impairments in quality of life (sleepiness, tiredness, concentration difficulties). Moreover, OSA has adverse consequences on the cardiovascular system by causing intermittent hypoxia, increased sympathetic nervous system activation and vascular endothelial …
Oropharyngeal Exercises to Treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The goal of this study is to determine whether a randomized controlled trial using oropharyngeal exercises to treat sleep apnea is feasible. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard therapy for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but it is poorly tolerated by many patients. Oropharyngeal exercises (OPEs) which are commonly …
Dexmedetomidine Versus Propofol Sedation for Drug-Induced Sleep Endoscopy in Pediatric Obstructive Sleep Apnea
This research study is designed to learn, first, whether two anesthetics have different effects on collapse seen within the upper airway during sleep endoscopy. A second purpose is to learn whether collapse at several levels of the upper airway is associated with obstructive sleep apnea that persists after adenotonsillectomy, the …
