Summary

The purpose of this study is to better understand how sleep apnea, a common sleep disorder in which a person has one or more pauses in breathing or shallow breaths while sleeping, may affect pregnancy and to determine the effect of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), a treatment that uses mild air pressure to keep the airways open during sleep, for pregnant women with sleep apnea.

Conditions

  • Obese
  • Pregnancy
  • Sleep Disordered Breathing

Interventions

DEVICE

CPAP

CPAP is a device that has a mask worn over the nose that is attached to a device that provides positive airway pressure. CPAP is worn while sleeping, it splints open the airway and prevents apneas (cessation of breathing) and hypopneas (reduced airflow while breathing).

DEVICE

sham-CPAP

OTHER

Sleep hygiene

Information about sleep apnea and healthy sleep. Information about local sleep resources
