Breathing and sleep training for people with sleep apnea
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a comprehensive breathing and respiratory exercise program for newly diagnosed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It may help by improving sleep breathing and reducing apnea-related symptoms. You may be eligible if you recently learned you have OSA and meet age and health criteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You were newly diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with at least 5 breathing events per hour
- Your age is 20 to 65 years
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 18 and 30
- You do not have central or mixed sleep apnea types
- You do not have certain major health issues (like serious heart disease, active mental health illness, or nerve/muscle diseases)

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests whether a simple breathing exercise (training the muscles you use to breathe in) can improve sleep apnea symptoms in people who already use CPAP. The goal is to see if adding this training helps you feel better or need less CPAP pressure.
This trial tests a smart home-based program using telerehabilitation to help people with obstructive sleep apnea. It aims to see if personalized health coaching and remote exercise can improve sleep and overall health.
This trial tests if a special mouth and throat exercise program can help people with obstructive sleep apnea who use a CPAP machine. It is designed for adults recently diagnosed with sleep apnea and aims to see if these exercises improve symptoms.
This trial tests whether training the muscles you use to breathe can improve sleep for people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea. It is for adults who are not currently receiving standard treatments like CPAP.
This trial tests whether training your breathing muscles can improve brain function, blood flow to the brain, and a nerve growth factor in adults with moderate sleep apnea. If you have moderate sleep apnea, you may qualify.
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.
