NCT ID NCT05558501
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether brief, mild low-oxygen breathing sessions can improve blood vessel function, lower blood pressure, and reduce tiredness in people with obstructive sleep apnea. Researchers will enroll 60 adults aged 30-60 who are newly diagnosed and not yet using CPAP. The goal is to see if this approach can serve as a new treatment or help CPAP work better.
