Cryosa device for obstructive sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a new device called Cryosa to treat obstructive sleep apnea. It may be an option if you have tried or cannot use a CPAP machine or mouthpiece, and you meet certain breathing and weight criteria.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 or older.
- You have tried a CPAP or mouth device and it didn't work, or you can't or don't want to use it.
- You have moderate to severe sleep apnea, measured by a sleep study (AHI of 15 or higher, with specific weight limits).
- You are willing to have the procedure, fill out questionnaires, and come back for follow-up visits and sleep studies.
- You can give informed consent and are not pregnant (or you use birth control if you could become pregnant).

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 study tests a new device for sleep apnea that you can use instead of a CPAP machine. If you have moderate to severe sleep apnea and CPAP isn't working well for you, this study may help find an easier option.
This trial studies how CPAP (a breathing machine) or a custom mouth guard (MAD) affects sleep over the long term in people with obstructive sleep apnea. It may help confirm which treatment improves sleep and how well it works over time.
This trial tests if brief periods of low oxygen (intermittent hypoxia) can change how immune cells work in people with moderate to severe sleep apnea. It may help understand new ways to reduce inflammation.
This study uses MRI scans to see how well a cold treatment (cryolysis) works for obstructive sleep apnea. It is only open to people already in the ARCTIC-3 trial at the University of Pennsylvania.
This trial tests a device that uses mild electrical pulses to help keep your airway open while you sleep. It's for people with moderate sleep apnea who have trouble using a CPAP machine.
