Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study looked at whether a home sleep apnea test can accurately detect obstructive sleep apnea in children aged 5-12 who have already had their tonsils and adenoids removed. 62 children completed both a home test and an overnight in-lab sleep study. The goal was to see how well the home test results matched the standard lab test.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Home sleep apnea test (Nox A1 HSAT)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could allow children to be tested for sleep apnea at home instead of in a hospital sleep lab, making diagnosis easier and less stressful.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 62 children. The home test may not be as accurate as the in-lab test, and results may not apply to all children or settings.
