Simulated In-House Usability Study of Eclipse Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Device

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Obstructive Sleep Apnea
• Interventions: Device: Eclipse novel CPAP mask; Device: Phillips Respironics Nuance

• Registration Number: NCT05570747
• Lead Sponsor: Bleep, LLC

Brief Summary

The study is designed to assess the usability of a novel CPAP human interface compared to a traditional nasal mask. Human subjects will interact with two different CPAP interfaces including a traditional CPAP mask and the 2nd generation DreamPort-Eclipse. Subjects will be requested to put on each of the different CPAP interface options a total of three times for a total of 6 trials. The order of device will be randomized.
