NCT02214238

Brief Summary

This study will test the hypothesis that the modified positive airway pressure (PAP) device for OSA will be no worse than a market released product in terms of its treatment efficacy, comfort and patient compliance. Patients will have their treatment pressure titrated using polysomnography (PSG) in the sleep laboratory, and then in a random order will spend additional time undergoing PSG using both devices, and using both devices at home for 3 weeks. Data will be collected from the PSG studies, device downloads, independent pressure-flow loggers, and custom questionnaires.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PAP Treatment Efficacy

    The participants apnea hypopnea index (AHI) will be assessed using the PSG data, device download data and the independent pressure-flow logger. The apnea-hypopnea index is the total number of sleep disordered breathing events divided by total sleep time.

    After 1 night in the sleep lab and 3 weeks use of the device in the home.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • PAP Treatment Comfort

    After 1 night in the sleep lab and 3 weeks use of the device in the home.

  • PAP Compliance

    After 1 night in the sleep lab and 3 weeks use of the device in the home.

  • Patients with pathologically low blood pressure, pneumothorax, a previous history of pneumothorax, or dehydration.
  • Patient with bypassed upper airway
  • Other significant sleep disorder(s) (e.g. periodic leg movements, insomnia, central sleep apnea)
  • Previous use of a bi-level device with-in the last 2 years (from enrolment date).
  • Patients with respiratory failure, bullous lung disease or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease).
  • Patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome or congestive heart failure
  • Patients that require supplemental oxygen with their CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) device
  • Patients with implanted or life-supporting electronic medical devices (e.g. cardiac pacemakers)
