About this study

Official title: Pilairo Q In-lab Market Research - Europe

Participants will undergo a normal sleep study. They will be randomised to use either a FPH Pilairo Q nasal pillow CPAP mask, or another mask. The sleep technician will record leak and pressure data, and complete questionnaires regarding satisfaction and ease of use at the end of the night. It is hypothesised that the Pilairo Q mask will be superior to other standard masks for CPAP therapy in terms of ease of use, satisfaction and overall titration experience.

Read the detailed description

Participants will be recruited from patients who visit the sleep lab for CPAP titration. Only eligible participants, that provide written informed consent, will be enrolled into the investigation

Only those participants whom are previously diagnosed with an AHI >5 can be approached and enrolled into the study.

Once the consent form has been signed, participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Pilairo or any other standard care nasal/nasal pillows mask for their CPAP titration. A randomisation log will be provided by FPH.

The titration session will take place as per the lab's routine practice.

Throughout the night the Sleep Technician will record in the CRF the absolute leak value for the mask every 10 minutes.

At the end of the session the Sleep Technician will complete a questionnaire in relation to the titration experience for that participant/mask. The data will be collected in the CRF that FPH staff will provide to the site.

What is being measured

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

  1. Subjective Questionnaire of Mask Experience

    Sleep technicians reported on their experience using the mask after 1 night in the lab on a scale from 1 to 10 with a higher score indicating a better experience

    Measured: 1 night in the lab

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mask Leak

    The Sleep Technologist will record mask leak every 10minutes, over an 8 hour period during the sleep study.

    Measured: Every 10min, for up to 8 hours

  2. Sleep Technicians Recommendation to Use Mask

    Sleep Technicians reported on whether they would recommend the mask to other professionals. Ratings were out of 1-10 and a higher score indicates a higher likelihood of recommending the mask.

    Measured: 1 night in the lab

What does the primary outcome measure?

Subjective Questionnaire of Mask Experience (time frame: 1 night in the lab). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
