Sleep apnea treatment in heart patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have coronary artery disease or are at very high risk for it.

This study is comparing two alternative treatments for moderate to severe sleep apnea in people who cannot or will not use a CPAP machine. The treatments are a custom-fitted dental device and a nerve stimulation implant, and the study will see how well they work.
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.
This study looks at a new way to use digital dental scans to fit a mouthpiece that treats obstructive sleep apnea. If you use this mouthpiece, the study may help make fitting more comfortable and accurate.
This study tests whether combining CPAP with special mouth and tongue exercises can improve sleep apnea better than CPAP alone. It is for people with mild to moderate sleep apnea who have not tried CPAP before.
This study looks at different types of sleep apnea to find the best treatment for each person. If you are newly diagnosed and haven't tried CPAP yet, your participation could help doctors personalize therapy for better results.
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.
