What participants receive

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

  • Novel SystemDevice

    A Novel full Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) system - Prototype Device, Mask + Accessories

  • Traditional SystemDevice

    Also called AirSense System

    A Traditional full Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) system- Released Device + Accessories, Prototype Mask

Arm 2Active comparatorParticipants randomised to Arm 1 will receive an intervention of 7 nights with the Traditional system followed by 7 nights with the Novel system
Receives: Device: Novel System; Device: Traditional System

What is being measured

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

  1. Subjective usability ratings of the prototype system using a visual analogue scale, compared to a reference level and the second full system.

    Participants will be asked to complete a short questionnaire at the end of each week to evaluate the general usability of the system. The questionnaire will include questions related to system use and comfort. The participants will answer the questions using an 11-point Likert scale.

    Measured: 1 year
