NCT ID NCT07175246

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study will use an overnight sleep test (polysomnography) to measure breathing problems during sleep in 30 adults with systemic sclerosis (scleroderma). The goal is to find out how common sleep-disordered breathing is in this group. No treatment is given—this is purely an observation to gather data.

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could reveal how common sleep breathing problems are in scleroderma, pointing toward better screening and care.

What could go wrong
