About this study

Currently, Fisher and Paykel Healthcare (FPH) is developing a new nasal mask.

This investigation is designed to evaluate the performance of the trial nasal mask, focused specifically on how the different seal sizes will perform on Obstructive Sleep Apnea participants who are currently on Positive Airway Pressure therapy.

Participant's prescribed treatment pressure with their usual mask will be collected for 7 days ± 3 days prior to mask fitting with the trial nasal mask. They will then be issued with the trial nasal mask to use in-home for 14 days ± 4 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Subjective measurements of comfort on the trial Nasal Mask gathered through a custom questionnaire

    Measured: 2 weeks in home

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Seal performance of the trial Nasal mask as measured by the subjective perception of leak through a custom questionnaire, in addition to objective leak data and treatment efficacy through the Positive Airway Pressure therapy device.

    the participant would choose from a 5 point likert scale on a questionnaire. The scale range from "very good" to "very poor"

    Measured: 2 weeks in home

  2. Objective leak data through the Positive Airway Pressure therapy device

    Evaluating the leak of the trial Nasal mask

    Measured: 2 weeks in home

  3. Treatment efficacy through the Positive Airway Pressure therapy device

    Evaluating the number of apnea/hypopnea per hour

    Measured: 2 weeks in home

  4. Preference of the Trial Nasal mask compared to the participant's usual mask through a custom questionnaire.

    the participant would either choose the trial Nasal mask or their usual mask as their primary mask
