Validation of Breathing Event Detection of the Philips Respironics Sleep Therapy System REMstar Auto A-Flex Compared to Clinical Polysomnography
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Manipulation of Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) for Sleep Apnea Central and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 45 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate diagnostic agreement and determine the accuracy of the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device compared to simultaneous, attended clinical polysomnography (PSG) in identifying breathing events in participants previously diagnosed with complex sleep apnea (CompSAS), complex sleep apnea with Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR), or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Positive airway pressure (PAP) will be manipulated throughout the night to induce breathing events. PAP will be set to the participant's prescribed pressure, increased until breathing events are induced , and then returned to the prescribed pressure. This cyclic pattern will continue throughout the night.
