Sleep and heart rhythm study for people with sleep apnea device
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how turning off your sleep apnea device for short periods affects your heart rhythm, especially if you have a condition like atrial fibrillation. It may help understand the link between sleep and heart health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 or older
- You have a special implanted device for sleep apnea (hypoglossal nerve stimulator)
- You are willing to turn off the device for up to 2 days in a row during the 14-day study
- You are not pregnant or planning to become pregnant
- You are not taking certain heart rhythm medications (class 1 or 3 antiarrhythmics)

This study looks at what happens to your heart health and metabolism when you stop using a nerve stimulator for sleep apnea for a short time. It may help understand the risks and benefits of taking a break from this therapy.
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 trial looks at how obstructive sleep apnea (OSA, a breathing problem during sleep) relates to heart outcomes in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). It may help doctors better predict risk and choose safer care for people who are high cardiovascular risk.
This study tests a new way to check and treat sleep apnea in people with atrial fibrillation (AF). If you have AF and symptoms, you may be able to join and get sleep tracking and treatment that could help both your heart and sleep.
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 trial tests whether combining electrical stimulation (via an Inspire device you already have or will get) with two medications can better treat obstructive sleep apnea. You'll help researchers understand if this combination works better than the device alone.
