Post-extubation Boussignac CPAP System in Adults With Moderate to Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Interventions
Device: Boussignac CPAP device
Device: standard CPAP
Registration Number
NCT01877928
Lead Sponsor
Queen's University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the Boussignac positive airway pressure system (a mask) applied immediately following post-operative extubation in improving lung function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Assessments will be done before surgery and then at 1, 2 and 24 hours following extubation and will be compared to standard care for perioperative airway support. The study aims to give a broader and more inclusive picture (than the current literature) in terms of whether the Boussignac CPAP system should be considered for utilization by anesthesiologists caring for surgical patients with OSA.
