Testing a sleep apnea machine in healthy people
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a positive airway pressure (PAP) machine, like those used for sleep apnea, in healthy volunteers. It helps researchers understand how the device works without other health issues interfering.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be generally healthy.
- You cannot have any lung or heart problems.
- You cannot currently have a cold, allergies, or congestion.
- You cannot have conditions like pneumonia, lung cancer, or COPD.

This study tests a new proactive therapy for people recently diagnosed with moderate or severe sleep apnea. It aims to see how well patients stick with the treatment outside of a sleep lab.
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 tests a new wearable CPAP device for people with obstructive sleep apnea. It compares the device used with a mask system to standard treatment. You may be a good fit if you already use a ResMed AirFit N20 Medium mask and an APAP machine.
This study tests different positive airway pressure (PAP) machines for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have been on treatment for at least 3 months. You would try each system for up to 7 nights to see how they work for you.
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 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.
