First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study tests a new device called Elara APAP for people with obstructive sleep apnea. The device delivers air pressure to keep the airway open during sleep. About 55 adults who already use an APAP machine will have one night of sleep monitoring to see if the device reduces breathing pauses. The goal is to find out if the device works well enough to manage the condition.
