Wearable tech aims to boost sleep apnea treatment adherence

NCT ID NCT06039865

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

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.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This trial tests whether a program using a consumer wearable device—which tracks oxygen levels during sleep—along with personalized weekly reports can help adults with obstructive sleep apnea use their positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy more consistently. Participants who are not currently adhering to their PAP therapy will either receive the wearable program immediately or after a waiting period, during which they receive usual care. The study compares changes in PAP usage between the two groups over about five weeks to see if the wearable-based approach improves adherence.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
A consumer wearable device that measures oxygen levels during sleep, paired with customized weekly reports
What this could lead to
If effective, this wearable-based program could offer a simple, low-cost way to help people with sleep apnea stick to their PAP therapy, potentially improving sleep and overall health.
What could go wrong
The trial is small (50 participants) and early, so results may not apply to everyone. The wearable device may not be as accurate as medical-grade equipment, and the program's success depends on participants' willingness to use it.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

50 people

The number who actually took part.

Started

Oct 2023

Finished

Jan 2025

Lead sponsor

A government agency

The lead sponsor is a US federal agency other than the NIH.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

21 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.
