2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The study will evaluate the feasibility of using smartphone speakers and microphones to evaluate the caliber of the airways, detect airway obstruction, aid in airway disease diagnosis, and identify disease exacerbations.
The investigators hypothesize that there is a strong correlation between OSA and TBM/HDAC. Our hypothesis is based on the similarities in mechanism (airway collapse), symptoms (daytime and nocturnal dyspnea) predisposing conditions (obesity and neuromuscular abnormalities of the chest wall and the diaphragm), and effect of interventions (CPAP and BIPAP) in these diseases.
