NCT01809418
Brief Summary:
The aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that a new device would produce a significant decrease in obstructive breathing events during sleep as indexed by the Apnea Hyperpnoea Index (AHI) or Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI) and measures of oxygen saturation during sleep.
Detailed Description:
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) syndrome is a disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction that occur during sleep. Associated features include loud snoring and fragmented non-refreshing sleep and have profound impact on quality of life, on safety on the roads and at work, and on the cardiovascular and metabolic systems.
The aim of the study is to test the hypothesis that a new device would produce a significant decrease in obstructive breathing events during sleep as indexed by the AHI/RDI and measures of oxygen saturation during sleep.
