Summary

This observational study is being undertaken as a part of a Master of Research (MRes) in Clinical Research programme.

Its goal is to learn about how continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy changes the complexity of body signals in adults with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The main question it aims to answer is:

\- How does the complexity of physiological signals (specifically oxygen saturation, heart rate variability, and airflow) change in adults with OSA from before to after three and six months of CPAP treatment?

It will use data from individuals who took part in an earlier trial, called 3DPiPPIn, which tested the use of 3D-printed, customised masks CPAP masks through sleep studies.

Conditions

  • Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA)

Interventions

DEVICE

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy

The intervention of interest within this secondary analysis study is Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy, a device-based treatment used to maintain airway patency in patients with sleep-disordered breathing. As a retrospective study, participant exposure to CPAP occured exclusively within the original 3DPiPPIn trial.
