The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, feasibility, and safety of mandibular advancement devices (MAD) for treating severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients who are CPAP intolerant and have failed hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS).
A pilot N-of-1 randomized controlled trial evaluating the effectiveness of a personalized CPAP intervention in reducing atrial fibrillation (AF) burden and improving AF-related quality of life in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
The goal of randomized clinical trial is to determine if the Alesis OSA-1 low laser light therapy device can reduce apnea-hypopnea index scores and treat sleep apnea in adult participants over the age of 18 who are diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The main questions it aims to answer are\]: • Does the use of the Alesis OSA-1 device reduce the number of AHI events after six treatments of 12 minutes each, 2x per week x 3 weeks, in adult OSA patients? Researchers will compare results of 35 control group participants who will not receive treatment to a treatment group who will receive six, 12 minute, non-invasive low laser light therapy (LLLT) treatments, two per week for 3 weeks, to see if there is a reduction in the number of AHI events and size of redundant and soft tissues in adult OSA patients. Participants will: * Visit the clinic for assessment and instructions on using the at home sleep study system, WatchPat, and obtain baseline information * Use the WatchPat system to record AHI events pre- and post-treatment. * 10 randomly selected participants will receive a pre-study pulmonary functions test (PFT) and repeated post-treatment. * 5 randomly selected participant will receive a pre-study MRI of the head/neck and repeated post treatment. * For the treatments, the participant lie on a treatment table under a LLLT device for 12 minutes, two times per week, x 3 weeks. * Be offered the treatment series at the conclusion of the study if they were selected for the control group.
The investigators will establish how well a novel, quick, and painless way of measuring muscle activity from the mouth and throat works for detecting sleep apnea. This technology is called transmembraneous electromyography (tmEMG). Leveraging two technologies, a new probe capable of recording muscle activity by lightly touching the muscle, as well as a machine learning model for signal interpretation, the investigators will conduct an initial observational feasibility study in phase 1, followed by a larger observational cohort study in phase 2 to assess the performance of deep learning enhanced tmEMG. The study will address a critical unmet need in sleep apnea diagnostics: the availability of an inexpensive, accurate diagnostic test for screening at point of care.
This study will examine whether a combination of breathing training during wake and targeted reactivation of the training during sleep can induce breathing changes during sleep and subsequent cognitive benefits during wake. Participants with obstructive sleep apnea (who have not yet been treated for sleep apnea) will be recruited. Participants will engage in breath training for one week in their own homes and to record their sleep at home using commercially available mobile devices and subsequently have their sleep monitored for one night of polysomnography recordings plus targeted reactivation in a laboratory setting.
This is a study to test if performing airway exercises to improve snoring and sleep apnea using a mobile phone app is better than using a hardcopy guide.
The primary purpose of the study is to assess the effect of lorundrostat taken orally (po) once a day on the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) in participants with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and hypertension.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of sivopixant, acetazolamide and SASS-001 in adults with sleep apnea with a central component.
This pilot study is being done to determine if the nasopharyngeal airway obstructive sleep apnea (NPA-OSA) device can be used in the treatment of OSA in adults. The researchers think that the NPA-OSA device will reduce the number of apneas.
The study will test the reliability of the Samsung Galaxy for the Detection of Moderate to Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
