Testing a device to check sleep breathing in schizophrenia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial uses a non-wearable device to assess sleep-disordered breathing in people with schizophrenia who are hospitalized. It aims to understand if this easy method can help monitor sleep issues.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests two wearable sensors that track how hard you breathe while you sleep. It may help diagnose sleep and breathing problems without needing a hospital visit.
This study looks at how treating obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may affect thinking and brain-related outcomes in people with serious mental illness. It mainly wants adults ages 40–70 who either have OSA or are likely to have it, and who are not already on sleep apnea treatment.
This trial tests a new device that uses neural networks to detect sleep stages and arousals. It may help people with sleep-disordered breathing who are starting or already using PAP therapy.
This trial tests whether a smartphone app (Apneal®) can accurately diagnose sleep apnea during a routine sleep study. If you are already going to have a sleep study, you may be able to help test this device.
This study tests if playing sounds during sleep can improve brain function in people with schizophrenia. You will be asked to do a finger tapping task while we measure your brain activity with MRI.
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.
