CPAP for sleep apnea and chronic pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing, Pain clinical trials.
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.

This study tests whether adding a sleep specialist to your pain care team can help you feel better. If you have chronic pain (lasting over 3 months) and are now seeing a pain doctor for the first time, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether long-term use of CPAP therapy, supported by telemedicine, helps people with moderate to severe sleep apnea. It could improve your sleep and health.
This study looks at whether using positive airway pressure (often called CPAP) improves health outcomes in older adults who have both COPD and obstructive sleep apnea. It may help find ways to reduce symptoms and complications from “overlap” breathing problems.
This study tests whether health advocates can help people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea start using a PAP machine. If you've never used a PAP or other sleep apnea treatment before, this trial may help you get support and guidance.
This study compares two ways to improve how CPAP therapy is delivered, to see which helps people use their machine more consistently. It is for adults who have been recently diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea and have not yet started treatment.
This trial tests if CPAP (a mask that helps you breathe at night) can improve asthma control in people who have both severe uncontrolled asthma and sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep). You should not have been hospitalized for asthma in the last month.
