Summary

This study aimed to see if an educational game called Yapouni could help children aged 3 to 16 use their CPAP or NIV breathing machines more consistently. The game was designed to motivate children by linking machine use to a hot air balloon's flight. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no data was collected.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
educational game (Yapouni)
What this could lead to
If it had worked, this game could have helped children with sleep apnea use their breathing machines more consistently at home.
What could go wrong
The study was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled, so no results are available. The game's effectiveness remains untested.
