NCT ID NCT07397780

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study checks if a special mouthpiece that measures oxygen levels during sleep is as accurate as the standard sleep lab test. Thirty adults with obstructive sleep apnea will wear the device overnight in a sleep lab. If it works well, it might offer a simpler way to track oxygen drops at home.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

RPMO2 OSA Device (buccal mucosal oximeter embedded in an oral appliance)

What this could lead to

If accurate, this device could allow people with sleep apnea to monitor their oxygen levels at home without a full sleep lab visit.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage validation study with only 30 participants. The device may not be accurate enough, and results may not apply to everyone with sleep apnea.
