Recruiting studies
- NCT06781593Recruiting
Light therapy and CPAP for depression with sleep apnea
This study tests if adding bright light therapy to standard CPAP treatment helps improve mood in people who have both depression and sleep apnea. You may benefit if your depression and sleep apnea are both being treated.
Bron, FranceAges 18 years+ - NCT07176117Enrolling by invitation
Surfactant via airway device for breathing trouble in newborns
This trial tests if giving surfactant (a natural substance that helps lungs stay open) through a special airway device can help late preterm and early term infants with breathing problems. The goal is to see if this approach works better than current methods without needing a breathing tube.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 8 months–9 months - NCT06570629Recruiting
Fixing air leaks with nasal CPAP
This trial looks at ways to fix air leaks that happen when using a CPAP mask at night. It may help if you have sleep apnea and your CPAP is leaking a lot despite using a nasal mask.
São Paulo, BrazilAges 18 years+ - NCT06570616Recruiting
Reducing mask leaks during CPAP for sleep apnea
This study tests a method to help CPAP users with nasal masks who have high air leaks. It aims to find better ways to reduce unintentional leaking so treatment works more effectively.
São Paulo, BrazilAges 18 years+ - NCT07160868Recruiting
Sleep apnea and severe asthma study
This study looks at whether people with difficult-to-treat asthma might also have obstructive sleep apnea. If you're on high-dose asthma treatments, this trial could help find out if sleep problems are making your asthma worse.
Dublin, DublinAges 18–90 - NCT06966752Recruiting
Comparing two breathing supports for preterm babies with breathing problems
This study compares two types of breathing support (CPAP and NIPPV) for preterm babies with breathing problems. It aims to find which method works better for helping babies breathe easier.
Vilnius, Vilnius CountyAges birth–10 months - NCT07101796Recruiting
Mood and personality in sleep apnea treatment
This study looks at how mood and personality traits affect treatment adherence in people with suspected or confirmed sleep apnea. It may help tailor support for better treatment outcomes.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07062770Recruiting
Testing air rebreathing during CPAP use
This study checks how much air rebreathing (breathing in some of your own exhaled air) happens when you use a CPAP machine. It might help improve CPAP therapy for people with sleep apnea.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–70 - NCT07060833Recruiting
Sound to check breathing pressure in premature babies on bubble CPAP
This study is testing whether the sound of the bubbles in a CPAP machine can tell doctors how much pressure is being delivered to a premature baby's lungs. If it works, this could help doctors make sure babies are getting the right amount of breathing support without extra procedures.
Montreal, QuebecAges 6 months–7 months - NCT06915831Recruiting
Type 1 diabetes and sleep apnea study
This study looks at how sleep apnea affects blood sugar control in adults with type 1 diabetes. It may help researchers understand if treating sleep apnea improves diabetes management.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18–50 - NCT06834724Recruiting
CPAP for sleep apnea and chronic pain
This study looks at whether CPAP treatment improves pain and daily life in people who have both sleep apnea and chronic pain. It tests if starting CPAP for the first time can help these symptoms.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06814340RecruitingPhase 3
CPAP on ECMO for severe lung failure
This trial is for people with severe lung failure (ARDS) who are already on a life-support machine called VV-ECMO. It tests whether adding a special breathing tube (CPAP) can help their lungs heal better.
BobignyAges 18 years+ - NCT04136717Recruiting
Test if FreeO2 helps keep oxygen levels in range
This study looks at whether adding FreeO2 can help keep your oxygen saturation (a measure of oxygen in the blood) within a target range while you use breathing support like NIV or CPAP. It may help reduce time spent either too low or too high in oxygen levels.
Québec, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06312956Recruiting
Sleep Apnea and Ventilotherapy: A Study Before and After Treatment
This trial studies how sleep apnea affects the body and brain before and after starting treatment with a breathing device (ventilotherapy). It aims to understand the benefits of early treatment for people with obstructive sleep apnea.
Piancavallo, VCOAges 20–60 - NCT06436638Recruiting
CPAP mask vs. nasal tube for breathing during molar extraction
This trial compares two ways to help you breathe during deep sedation for a molar extraction: a CPAP mask over your nose or a small tube placed in your nostril. The goal is to see which method keeps your oxygen levels more stable.
KayseriAges 18–60 - NCT06089603RecruitingPhase 4
CPAP for Sleep Apnea with High Red Blood Cells
This study tests whether CPAP therapy (a machine that helps keep your airway open while you sleep) can lower high red blood cell counts in people who have both sleep apnea and polycythemia. It may help reduce the need for other treatments.
Madrid, MadridAges 18–80 - NCT06263608Recruiting
Sleep apnea testing and treatment for atrial fibrillation patients
This study tests a new way to check and treat sleep apnea in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). If you have AF and symptoms, you may be able to join and get sleep tracking and treatment that could help both your heart and sleep.
EdegemAges 18 years+ - NCT06213168Recruiting
CPAP plus high-flow oxygen vs oxygen alone for breathing failure
This study tests whether adding a breathing machine (CPAP) to high-flow oxygen can help people with sudden breathing failure more than high-flow oxygen alone. It is for adults recently admitted to the ICU with low oxygen levels.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06183827Recruiting
Drowning breathing failure oxygen trial
This trial compares two ways to give oxygen to people who have trouble breathing after drowning. It aims to find the best approach in the emergency setting.
BayonneAges 1 year+ - NCT03312556Recruiting
CPAP for high blood pressure when lying down
This trial looks at whether using CPAP (a breathing device) can help control high blood pressure that happens when you lie down, in people with autonomic failure. It’s designed for safety and effectiveness and may improve symptoms and blood pressure control.
Nashville, TennesseeAges 18–85 - NCT04557293Recruiting
Testing how thinking decisions affect CPAP use
This trial studies whether a person’s decision-making skills affect how well they use CPAP, a common treatment for sleep apnea. It may help you and your care team improve CPAP adherence so therapy is more effective.
PaviaAges 18–80 - NCT05289063RecruitingPhase 1
Study new sleep apnea and blood vessel function
This Phase 1 study looks at how blood vessel function is affected by obstructive sleep apnea in adults who are newly diagnosed and have not used CPAP. It may help researchers understand the early effects of sleep apnea and guide future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04905238Enrolling by invitation
Sleep apnea study linking breathing markers to memory changes
This trial looks at how severe sleep apnea breathing patterns relate to body “biomarkers” linked to Alzheimer’s disease, using blood or other measures. It may help researchers understand whether sleep apnea is connected to memory and brain health—and who might benefit most from better sleep care.
Palma, Balearic IslandsAges 18–65 - NCT04307615Recruiting
Oxygen versus CPAP during emergency lung fluid episodes
This trial tests whether regular oxygen or CPAP (a breathing-support machine) works better for people who have swimming-induced pulmonary edema, a sudden buildup of fluid in the lungs after swimming. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective breathing treatment in an emergency.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for continuous positive airway pressure?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 59 recruiting continuous positive airway pressure studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a continuous positive airway pressure trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a continuous positive airway pressure trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
