New sleep apnea mask put to the test at home
NCT ID NCT05573763
First seen Jun 26, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new nasal pillows mask called F&P Toffee for people with obstructive sleep apnea. Forty adults who already use PAP therapy tried the mask at home for 14 days. Researchers measured how well the mask controlled breathing pauses (AHI score) and how sleepy participants felt during the day. The goal was to see if the mask is safe and effective for home use.

- What this could lead to
- If successful, this mask could offer a more comfortable option for people with sleep apnea who use PAP therapy, potentially improving adherence and sleep quality.
