Testing a new breathing mask for sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a new style of breathing mask (called the F&P Licorice Mask) for people who already use CPAP or similar therapy for sleep apnea. You'll use the mask at home and give feedback on how it feels and works, which could help make future masks more comfortable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 22 years old or older.
- You weigh at least 66 pounds.

This study tests a new Fisher & Paykel mask to see how comfortable and effective it is for people who already use a PAP or NIV machine for sleep or breathing support. If you qualify, you might help improve future masks for others.
This study tests a new wearable mask system that works with your APAP machine to treat sleep apnea. You'll try the mask for up to 7 nights to see if it is easy to use and comfortable.
This study tests different PAP machines (devices that help you breathe at night) to see how well they work and how comfortable they are. If you already use a PAP machine for sleep apnea, you might be able to try new machines for a week each and share your experience.
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 a new APAP machine (called Elara) that helps keep your airway open while you sleep. It looks at how well the device works for people who are already using APAP therapy.
This study checks how ResMed CPAP mask systems work in real-life use for people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). It may help improve comfort, fit, and performance based on what patients experience over time.
