Jaw advancement with counterclockwise rotation for obstructive sleep apnea
This trial tests whether jaw advancement surgery with counterclockwise rotation helps people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who can't tolerate CPAP breathe better and sleep more soundly.
-
Eloralintide for people with obstructive sleep apnea who are overweight or obese
This study will test whether the drug eloralintide helps adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea who are overweight or obese, whether they use PAP therapy or not.
-
Long-term use of a nasopharyngeal airway for obstructive sleep apnea
This follow-up lets people who finished the parent trial keep using a nasopharyngeal airway to see how it works over the long term for obstructive sleep apnea.
-
How insomnia affects PAP use in children and teens with obstructive sleep apnea.
This study will see if insomnia makes children and teens with obstructive sleep apnea less likely to stick with positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy.
-
Does mouth opening change with quality of life after adenotonsillectomy in kids with type 1 OSA?
This study tests whether improvements in mouth opening after adenotonsillectomy are linked to better quality of life in children with Type 1 Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

-
Improving metabolic health in sleep apnea patients using CPAP treatment
This study is testing how using CPAP treatment for sleep apnea can help improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes or prediabetes.

Comparing nasal and oral breathing during drug-induced and natural sleep
This study is testing whether the way people with obstructive sleep apnea breathe (through their nose or mouth) during drug-induced sleep matches how they breathe during natural sleep.
-
NPA-OSA device tolerability, usability, and acclimation in adults with obstructive sleep apnea
This pilot will test whether a small nasopharyngeal airway (NPA-OSA) device can reduce apneas and be tolerated by adults with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who are not using CPAP.

Examining the impact of laryngomalacia on children's quality of life before and after treatment
This study looks at how laryngomalacia affects the quality of life for children and sees if treatment, including surgery, can help them feel better.
-
Effect of CPAP on blood conditions in sleep apnea patients
This study is testing if using a CPAP machine can help improve blood conditions in people with sleep apnea and high red blood cell levels compared to standard medication.
-
Using a mandibular advancement device to help with sleep apnea when stopping CPAP
This study is testing if a mouthpiece can help people with sleep apnea manage their symptoms and heart health when they stop using their CPAP machine for a short time.
-
Comparing outcomes of lateral pharyngoplasty with tonsillectomy in children
This study tests if adding a throat surgery called lateral pharyngoplasty to tonsil removal helps children recover better and feel less pain after their operation.
-
Using passive appliances to treat snoring and mild sleep apnea
This study is testing if special mouthpieces can help people with mild sleep apnea and snoring breathe better while sleeping, and if they work better than regular mouthpieces.
-
Predicting outcomes in patients with obstructive sleep apnea using hypoglossal nerve stimulation
This study is trying to figure out how the upper airway works in people with obstructive sleep apnea to see why some don’t respond well to a specific treatment called hypoglossal nerve stimulation.
-
Comparing home sleep apnea testing to in-lab testing in children
This study is testing whether home sleep apnea tests are just as good as in-lab tests for diagnosing sleep apnea in children.
-
Comparing cardiovascular events in stroke patients with and without sleep-disordered breathing
This study is trying to see if having sleep-disordered breathing affects the risk of heart and brain problems in stroke patients over the next year.
-
Evaluating CPAP treatment effects on blood pressure in normotensive sleep apnea patients
This study is testing if using a CPAP machine can help lower blood pressure in people with severe sleep apnea who normally have healthy blood pressure levels.
-
Using oxytocin nasal spray to reduce CPAP pressure in sleep apnea patients
This study is testing if a nasal spray with oxytocin can help people with sleep apnea use lower pressure on their CPAP machines while they sleep.
-
Measuring throat sensation with an endoscopic esthesiometer in people with obstructive sleep apnea
This test tries to see if a new endoscopic device can reliably measure throat (laryngopharyngeal) sensation in adults referred for suspected obstructive sleep apnea.
-
Evaluating the upper airway in obstructive sleep apnea using drug-induced sleep endoscopy
This study is testing if a special sleep test using medication can help doctors better understand the airways of people with obstructive sleep apnea who are thinking about surgery.
