A Mindfulness-Based Intervention to Improve CPAP
The main purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based intervention in improving CPAP use compared to online peer support
Impact of Extended CPAP on Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia
The purpose of this pilot study is to compare if keeping infants on CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) support for an extended period of time until they are 32 weeks corrected gestational age or 1250 grams (approximately 2 pounds and 12 ounces) will decrease their degree of lung disease as …
CPAP or BiPAP for Motion Mitigation During Radiotherapy
When using highly conformal radiotherapy techniques, such as proton therapy, a controlled breathing pattern and a minimal breathing amplitude could greatly benefit the treatment of mobile tumors. This reduction in tumor motion may be achieved with the use of a ventilator that is able to regulate and modulate the breathing …
Effect of CPAP on Respiratory Load in COPD
Both intrinsic positive end expiratory pressure (PEEPi) and dynamic hyperinflation are considered as inspiratory loads which increase work of breathing in patients with COPD. The application of extrinsic positive end expiratory pressure (PEEPe) supplied by CPAP has been claimed to reduce inspiratory load based on change in esophageal pressure which …
CPAP Effect on the Polycythemia in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Objectives: To compare the response of polycythemia in terms of hematocrit decrease in patients treated with positive airway pressure (CPAP) versus patients not treated with CPAP. Methodology: Randomized, parallel-group, nonblinded, controlled clinical trial. Patients diagnosed with OSA in a respiratory polygraphy (RP) and who meet all the inclusion criteria and …
Effect of CPAP on Abnormal Gastroesophageal Reflux and Lung Inflammation in IPF
This study will evaluate the effect of CPAP therapy on esophageal pH and lung inflammation in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and sleep apnea.
Prospective Randomized Trial of CPAP for SDB in Patients Who Use Opioids
Patients with chronic pain who use opioids appear to be at increased risk for breathing issues during sleep, termed sleep disordered breathing (SDB). Treatment of SDB often consists of use of a device during sleep that provides continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) via a mask interface. The goal of this …
Restoring Metabolic and Reproductive Health With Sleep in PCOS Study, CPAP Trial
In this study, the researchers are trying to learn more about the relationship between Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Obstructive Sleep Apnea is a sleep-related breathing disorder that involves a decrease or complete stop in airflow. The purpose of this study is to find out why some …
Effect of Eszopiclone on Adherence to CPAP and Severity of Insomnia in Patients With COMISA
The comorbidity between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia (COMISA) is common, and associated with poorer sleep quality. CPAP adherence among COMISA patients is worst than among those with OSA only. The investigators will compare the effect of Eszopiclone 3mg or placebo for 14 days on adherence to CPAP after …
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)
