No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Patients with both sleep apnea and COPD have overlap syndrome, but their optimal management is not known. We plan to conduct a randomized trial of of bi-level PAP vs. night time oxygen to asses the impact of intervention on cardiac MRI and biomarkers.

Conditions

  • Chronic Obstructive Airway Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

Bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP)

The level of BPAP will be titrated to treat OSA as well as hypoxemia and hypercapnia. The duration of therapy will be six months.

DRUG

Oxygen

Oxygen will be titrated to keep resting oxygen saturation (as measured by pulse oximeter) more than 88 percent. The duration of therapy will be six months.

DEVICE

CPAP

The level of CPAP will be titrated to treat OSA. The duration of therapy will be six months.
