Summary

Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes, it remains unclear whether OSA treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has metabolic benefits. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of 8-hour nightly CPAP treatment on glucose metabolism in individuals with prediabetes and OSA.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

CPAP mask

The subjects who are randomized to CPAP treatment will undergo an overnight CPAP titration in the laboratory, which will be performed manually by a registered technician according to American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) guidelines .Subjects will be admitted in the early evening and will receive positive airway pressure education, hands on demonstration, careful mask fitting and acclimatization prior to titration. The goal during the titration will be to determine the optimal CPAP pressure setting that eliminates obstructive respiratory events, restore oxygen saturations and sleep continuity. \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
