Sleep Disorders Trial, Recruiting
Who may be able to join
AI generated eligibility summary. Written by an AI model from the official source data and checked on a sample basis. It can contain mistakes, so confirm anything important against the original source. How we use AI
Who might be able to join this trial:
- People who have been diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where breathing repeatedly stops during sleep), with a score of more than 30 breathing interruptions per hour, and who are not currently using a CPAP machine (a breathing device used during sleep)
- People who do not have obstructive sleep apnea, confirmed by a score of fewer than 15 breathing interruptions per hour and no significant daytime sleepiness based on a standard sleepiness questionnaire
Who may not be able to join:
- People under 18 or over 75 years of age
- People who are left-handed
- People with a BMI (a measure of body weight relative to height) above 40
- People who have another diagnosed sleep disorder
- People whose sleep apnea is primarily caused by signals from the brain rather than a physical airway blockage (known as central sleep apnea), with more than 5 such events per hour
- People with a current or past neurological condition (a condition affecting the brain or nervous system)
- People with a respiratory condition affecting how the lungs work, or with higher-than-normal carbon dioxide levels in the blood
- People for whom an MRI scan would not be safe — for example, due to metal implants in the body, claustrophobia, or pregnancy
