Sleep study on insomnia and mask use in kids
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how insomnia affects how well children and teenagers use their breathing mask (PAP therapy) for sleep apnea. It aims to find ways to help kids stick with their treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 8 and 18 years old.
- Your child has sleep apnea with at least 5 breathing pauses per hour during a sleep test.
- Your child has just been prescribed a breathing mask (PAP machine) for sleep apnea.
- Your child does not have a developmental disability that makes it hard to answer survey questions.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two different continuous positive airway pressure (PAP) machines, the KPAP and the ResMed AirSense 11 with EPR, to see if one works better for treating obstructive sleep apnea. If you're already using a PAP machine, you may be able to join and help find out if a newer device improves your therapy.
This study evaluates a new APAP (automatic positive airway pressure) device called Elara for treating obstructive sleep apnea. You'll use the device and have sleep monitoring to see how well it works for you.
This trial tests whether home sleep testing can help diagnose sleep apnea in children. It is for kids who are already being referred for an in-lab sleep study at CHOP.
This study tests a wearable device that can help monitor breathing and sleep in children. It compares children with sleep apnea to children without sleep apnea using a simple nighttime monitoring approach.
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.
This study compares two types of masks used with sleep apnea machines to see which one is more comfortable and effective. You'll be newly diagnosed with sleep apnea and willing to try a mask-based treatment to find out which works best for you.
