Sleep apnea study using a national sleep database
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study collects information from adults who are getting a sleep test because obstructive sleep apnea is suspected. It helps researchers better understand sleep apnea and who develops it, without giving a new treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult having a sleep study because sleep apnea is suspected
- You can read and speak well enough to complete study tasks
- You are willing to sign the study consent form
- You do not currently use positive airway pressure (a breathing device)
- You do not have a very limited life expectancy from severe kidney disease or uncontrolled cancer
- You do not have alcohol dependency

This study tests a new proactive therapy for people recently diagnosed with moderate or severe sleep apnea. It aims to see how well patients stick with the treatment outside of a sleep lab.
This study tests different positive airway pressure (PAP) machines for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have been on treatment for at least 3 months. You would try each system for up to 7 nights to see how they work for you.
This study looks at how well current and new devices can diagnose obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). You may help researchers find more accurate and easier ways to detect breathing problems during sleep.
This study tests two different ways to help people breathe better during sleep. If you were recently diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), this trial may help you find which device works best for your condition.
This study tests a sleep apnea treatment approach and looks at how it may affect your body’s metabolism. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with sleep apnea and meet health and medication rules, and possibly if you already use a PAP machine regularly.
This study compares blood samples from people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and those without sleep apnea to find markers that could help diagnose or treat the condition. Half of those with sleep apnea will start CPAP therapy right away, while others wait before starting.
