About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The study is designed to develop models to predict site of collapse information using routine polysomnography. In an observational study, the investigators will study 1000 patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have had a recent polysomnographic study and will undergo drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) as part of their standard clinical care. Flow shape information from the polysomnographic study will be associated with the DISE results, and a set of prediction models will be developed and validated to detect the site, pattern and degree of upper airway collapse as seen during DISE.

The group in the trial

  • Obstructive sleep apnea patients eligible for DISE

    Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (AHI\>=5) will be included in the study. Subjects should be eligible for drug-induced sleep endoscopy as the next step in their clinical path.

    Treatment: Drug-induced sleep endoscopy

Questions to ask the study team

  1. How often do I need to come in, and for how long each time?
  2. Are travel costs paid?
  3. Can I keep my own doctor?
  4. What happens if I want to stop?
