Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Conditions
Brief summary
This investigation is a prospective, non-randomized, non-blinded study. This investigation is designed to evaluate the performance, comfort and ease of use of the F&P Toffee mask amongst Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) patients. Up to 45 OSA patients will be recruited from the Pulmonary Disease Specialists Research database.
Detailed description
Visit 1 will involve the participants being consented into the trial. Visit 2 will involve the participants being fitted with the F&P Toffee mask for use in home. The participant will then come in to return the mask (Visit Three) and have a final interview, this ensures the maximum time participants will be exposed to the Toffee mask in home will be 14 ± 4 days from visit two. The mask will be returned to the Institution at the conclusion of the trial and the participant will return to their previous mask. The Institution will recruit all patients within 2 weeks of the beginning of the study.
Interventions
Participants will be placed on this arm for a total of 14+- 4 days from visit 2. Participants will be using the Toffee mask during this treatment arm.
