Nasal Expiratory Resistance in Patients With Sleep Apnea and Expiratory Flow Limitation
Sponsor: Brigham and Women's Hospital
View on ClinicalTrials.gov
Summary
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is inherently site-specific. In a physiological controlled intervention study, the investigators seek to determine whether applying expiratory resistance can acutely improve ventilation and sleep in patients with expiratory flow limitation (EFL).
