NCT01312948

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate a newly developed pediatric mask (known as Pixi) on children aged 2-7 using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), or Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) treatment. The participants will undergo a monitored sleep study, followed by a 7 night trial of the Pixi mask in the home environment. During the study usability will be measured through questionnaires filled in by the parent and clinician. The study hypothesis is that the usability of the mask will be superior to the patient's usual mask.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Usability Ratings of the Pixi Paediatric Mask Compared With the Child's Current Mask

    Before trialling the Pixi mask, parents rated the usability of their child's usual mask using a 0-10 Likert Scale where 0 = poor and 10 = excellent. After trialling the Pixi mask, parents then completed the same questionnarie for the Pixi mask. Usability was defined as a single overall score of mask performance. Parents considered mask seal, comfort, stability and red marks when scoring each mask for usability.

    8 nights use

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Equivalence of Apnea-hypopnea Index (AHI) on the New Pixi Mask Compared With the Child's Usual Mask

    >4 hours monitored sleep study

Study Arms (1)

Prototype mask

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Prototype mask (known as Pixi)

Interventions

This is a prototype mask to be used with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or non-invasive ventilation (NIV) therapy. The mask attaches to the face, covering the nose, and is kept in place with headgear. Therapy is delivered through the mask via a tube which attaches to the CPAP or NIV device.
