Study testing obstruction patterns to guide CPAP alternatives
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how breathing passages narrow during sleep to better understand obstruction patterns. It may help people who are being considered for alternatives to CPAP (a common breathing device) for sleep-disordered breathing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult (18 or older).
- You can clearly speak and understand English for the study steps.
- You are scheduled or referred for a DISE procedure for medical reasons.
- You are looking for CPAP alternatives for sleep-disordered breathing treatment.

This study looks at whether changing lung air volume affects how open or blocked your upper airway is during a drug-induced sleep test (DISE). It may help guide surgical choices for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
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 trial tests whether combining mouth and throat exercises with a CPAP machine (a device that gently pushes air to keep your airway open while you sleep) can help people with mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea breathe better at night. The study aims to see if this combination approach is effective and safe for you.
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 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 checks how ResMed CPAP mask systems work in real-life use for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It may help improve comfort, fit, and performance based on what patients experience over time.
