About this study

This study will take between 1-2 months (with first patient first visit to last patient last visit). Each participant will use the supplied PAP device and mask for a period of up to 14 nights. Participants will complete a series of questionnaires. The study will collect data to support the development of an advance leak detection technology.

Read the detailed description

The investigation device is designed to collect leak patterns which will be analysed to develop an advanced leak detection technology to help users/patients to troubleshhot therapy issues.

This will be a multi-centre, multiphase, single arm study. The study will be conducted in the home environment.

Recruitment Recruitment will be done via phone calls/ SMS messages/ emails. Participants will be explained the details of the trial and those who wish to take part will be invited to ResMed for the first study visit.

Visit 1 Participants will provide written informed consent. If eligible, baseline participant demographics will be collected. Participants will be shown the investigation equipment. If the participant is happy to proceed, the therapy and comfort settings of the trial PAP device will be set-up to match their current PAP device and a mask similar to the participant's current mask will be provided to take home and be use in place of their own equipment.

Visit 2 After completing 7 days of the trial participants will return to the ResMed. The researcher will review the questionnaire and data quality with the participant.

Visit 2 may not be performed or completed via digital platform. For Phase 2 of this study. Visit 2 may not be completed as confidence in the system set up is achieved via Phase 1.

Visit 3

After completing another 7 days of the trial, participants will return to the ResMed. The participant will return all trial equipment researcher. The participants' questionnaire responses and data will be reviewed. This concludes the participation in the study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) TherapyDevice

    PAP therapy supplies pressurized air from the flow generator to the upper airway via air tubing and a mask to prevent the repetitive collapse of the upper airway during sleep.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Investigational DeviceExperimentalParticipants will be asked to take home the investigational device to use at night while they sleep in place of their own device. The participant's therapy and comfort settings will be copied from their own device to the investigational device.
Receives: Device: Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) Therapy

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Acoustic signals

    Cross-correlation of acoustic signals recorded from the patient environment and the objective leak data recorded by the investigational Positive Airway Pressure Device.

    Measured: 2 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) Therapy in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), run by ResMed at 1 site in Australia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Acoustic signals (time frame: 2 Months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Oct 2024.
