Titrations Pressures in Sleep Apnea Patients Using ThermoSmart® Versus Conventional Humidification
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Heated breathing tube (CPAP with ThermoSmart) and Non heated breathing tube (CPAP with conventional humidification) for Sleep Apnea, Obstructive. Completed, enrolled 26 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Patients who have Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) may have different Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)when titrated with different levels of humidification. It is hypothesised that patients with ThermoSmart® technology (heated breathing tube technology) will have lower titrated pressures than those who are titrated using conventional humidification (non heated breathing tube).
