Trial summary

Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is generally offered to patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The investigators suggest that beneficial effects of PAP therapy is by preventing apneas and therefore reducing cardiac and pulmonary morbidities. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effects of Positive Airway Pressure Therapy on Exercise Parameters in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is generally offered to patients with obstructive sleep apnea. The investigators suggest that beneficial effects of PAP therapy is by preventing apneas and therefore reducing cardiac and pulmonary morbidities. The investigators sought to verify this by assessing cardiac and pulmonary function during exercise.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by University of Gaziantep at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Feb 2013. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

peak oxygen uptake (time frame: 30-60 days). 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 7 Feb 2013.
