Recruiting studies
- NCT06715228Recruiting
Breathing exercise for sleep apnea
This trial tests a special breathing exercise program (called Shitali) to see if it helps people with mild or moderate sleep apnea who are not obese. If you qualify, you'll learn a gentle therapy that may improve your sleep without machines or medicine.
Dokki, Giza GovernorateAges 35–55 - NCT07603583Recruiting
Heart Rate Variability to Detect Sleep Apnea in Hypertension
This study tests whether a simple heart-rate measurement can help detect obstructive sleep apnea (a breathing condition during sleep) in people with high blood pressure. The goal is to find an easier way to screen for sleep apnea, which often goes undiagnosed but can worsen heart health.
Kaohsiung City, KaohsiungAges 18–65 - NCT07601724Recruiting
How fluid buildup affects sleep apnea in heart failure
This study looks at how excess fluid in the body affects sleep apnea (pauses in breathing during sleep) in people hospitalized with heart failure. Researchers will measure sleep apnea before and after treatment to reduce the fluid, which may help doctors better manage both conditions together.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT07577661RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Electrical and medication combination therapy for sleep apnea
This trial tests whether combining electrical stimulation (via an Inspire device you already have or will get) with two medications can better treat obstructive sleep apnea. You'll help researchers understand if this combination works better than the device alone.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–79 - NCT07530302Recruiting
Better ways to adjust CPAP therapy when it isn't working well
This trial tests whether a wearable device called Sunrise can help doctors adjust your CPAP machine better than standard sleep tests. If your current CPAP isn't stopping all your breathing pauses, this study may help find the right adjustments for you.
GrenobleAges 18–85 - NCT07476313Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new home sleep system for moderate to severe sleep apnea
This study tests a home sleep testing system called SleepView+ in people who have already been scheduled for an overnight sleep lab study. If you have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea, this device might offer a more convenient way to monitor your sleep at home.
Redwood City, CaliforniaAges 12 years+ - NCT07464262Recruiting
Telemonitoring with CPAP for severe sleep apnea patients
This trial tests whether telemonitoring (checking in remotely) helps people with severe sleep apnea adjust to CPAP therapy. If you live in São Paulo and recently started CPAP, this study may help you get extra support.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18–75 - NCT07447011Recruiting
Glaucoma treatment response with sleep apnea lifestyle changes
This trial tests whether lifestyle changes can help open-angle glaucoma in people who also have obstructive sleep apnea and are obese. It may offer a non-drug way to manage both conditions.
Giza, DokkiAges 30–50 - NCT07447999Recruiting
Using AI to predict sleep apnea severity
This trial tests whether a special computer model can predict sleep apnea severity using a stethoscope and a fingertip oxygen sensor, instead of a full sleep test. It might help people get faster and easier sleep apnea diagnosis.
New Taipei CityAges 30–75 - NCT07444372Recruiting
Starting CPAP therapy after atrial fibrillation ablation
This study tests whether starting CPAP therapy soon after a heart procedure called catheter ablation helps people with sleep apnea and atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) recover better and stay in normal rhythm. CPAP is a machine that helps keep your airway open while you sleep.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07434050RecruitingPhase 3
Study of XW003 for obesity with sleep apnea on CPAP therapy
This trial tests an investigational drug called XW003 to see if it helps people with obesity and obstructive sleep apnea who are already using a positive airway pressure (PAP) machine, like CPAP. It aims to improve weight loss and sleep apnea symptoms.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07427589Recruiting
New Heart Tests in Sleep Apnea
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects your heart and blood vessels over time. It uses a sleep study and heart tests to see if certain measurements can predict heart health changes.
AntwerpAges 18 years+ - NCT06668597Recruiting
Sleep apnea education and motivation program
This trial tests an educational program to help people with sleep apnea start using CPAP at home. The program is designed to motivate and guide you through the process of adapting to CPAP therapy.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06568159Recruiting
Sleep apnea treatment in heart patients
This study looks at how well people with heart disease or high heart risk follow their sleep apnea treatment, comparing a mouth device (MAD) to a CPAP machine. It aims to find which treatment works better for daily use.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT07387094RecruitingPhase 3
A study of XW003 for obesity with sleep apnea (no CPAP)
This trial tests an investigational weekly injection called XW003 for weight loss in people who have obesity and moderate-to-severe sleep apnea but do not use a CPAP machine. It aims to see if the drug can help with weight loss and improve sleep apnea without the need for a breathing machine.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT02057783Recruiting
Exercise program to lower blood pressure in sleep apnea
This trial tests whether a supervised physical activity program can help lower blood pressure in people with obstructive sleep apnea and resistant high blood pressure. It may help you control blood pressure when it has not improved despite multiple medications.
QuébecAges 18–80 - NCT07376343Recruiting
Comparing CPAP pressure formulas vs lab titration for sleep apnea
This study compares two ways to set CPAP machine pressure for Thai people with obstructive sleep apnea: using a quick formula versus a full overnight lab test. It helps find the best pressure more easily.
Pathum ThaniAges 18 years+ - NCT07364318Recruiting
Thinking and memory in sleep apnea
This study looks at how thinking and memory are affected in people with newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops briefly during sleep). It aims to understand the impact of sleep apnea on brain function.
BratislavaAges 18–65 - NCT07369011RecruitingPhase 3
Study of eloralintide for sleep apnea with obesity
This study tests an investigational medication called eloralintide to see if it can improve sleep apnea in people who are overweight or have obesity. You will receive either the study drug or a placebo (inactive shot), and your sleep and weight will be monitored over time.
Cullman, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06848647Recruiting
Treating sleep apnea to improve metabolism
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea with CPAP improves your body's metabolism (how your body uses energy). It's for people who have sleep apnea and are about to start CPAP therapy.
Uppsala, Uppsala CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07357272Recruiting
Blood pressure benefits in sleep apnea patients after CPAP
This trial studies whether CPAP treatment can improve blood pressure in people with obstructive sleep apnea. It aims to find out who benefits most from CPAP in terms of blood pressure control.
