NCT02317042

Brief Summary

This study is to evaluate the efficacy of a new therapy (Automatic Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure with intelligent Volume Assured Pressure Support (AutoEPAP iVAPS)) designed to treat respiratory insufficiency, respiratory failure and/or nocturnal hypoventilation with upper airway obstruction. The study will be performed in two phases: In a sleep unit and in the home environment. The new therapy will be compared against two existing ventilator therapies: "Spontaneous Timed (ST) mode" and "Intelligent Volume Assured Pressure Support (iVAPS)".

Study Arms (3)

Standard ST Mode

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants underwent the first PSG study (Titration Night 1) on ST Mode ( prior to going on AutoEPAP iVAPS or Fixed EPAP iVAPS) whilst receiving their standard NIV therapy through the clinical trial device "Juno". During this mode the participant's current NIV settings were reviewed and re-titrated to deliver optimal therapy.

Device: Juno

AutoEPAP iVAPS

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants underwent a PSG study on the AutoEPAP iVAPS mode on either Night 2 or Night 3 according to their computer generated randomisation. Participants were randomised (1:1) according to a computer-generated randomised list (Microsoft Excel 2010) to receive 'AutoEPAP iVAPS' or 'FixedEPAP iVAPS' therapy mode first.

Device: Juno

Fixed EPAP iVAPS

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants underwent a PSG study on the Fixed EPAP iVAPS mode on either Night 2 or Night 3 according to their computer generated randomisation. Participants were randomised (1:1) according to a computer-generated randomised list (Microsoft Excel 2010) to receive 'AutoEPAP iVAPS' or 'FixedEPAP iVAPS' therapy mode first.

Device: Juno
