Sleep apnea screening in diverse groups
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study is screening people from different backgrounds for obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep). It uses a sleep test and questionnaires to see if you might have it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study validates a French questionnaire that patients fill out about their sleep apnea symptoms. By joining, you help ensure the questionnaire accurately captures how patients feel, which could improve care for apnea in the future.
This study is improving how doctors classify obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep). It focuses on sleepiness and heart-related risks to help guide treatment. If you are 40 or older and have untreated OSA, you may be able to join.
This study tests new ways to diagnose obstructive sleep apnea. If you haven't been diagnosed with sleep apnea and are generally healthy, you may be able to join.
This study compares blood samples from people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and those without sleep apnea to find markers that could help diagnose or treat the condition. Half of those with sleep apnea will start CPAP therapy right away, while others wait before starting.
This trial tests whether giving CPAP (a machine that helps you breathe at night) right away, without waiting for a formal sleep study, can help people who likely have sleep apnea. It aims to provide quicker treatment, especially in areas where sleep studies are not easy to get.
This study is looking at a specific sleep-related condition (obstructive sleep apnea) in adults whose blood pressure is not high, and how their blood pressure rhythm changes over the day. If you have sleep apnea, participating could help researchers understand patterns that may affect long-term health.
