MicroRNAs as Biomarkers for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Part of paid clinical trials in Columbus, Ohio.

Sponsor
University of Pennsylvania
Study ID
NCT06189755
Status
Recruiting

Conditions

  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Eligibility Criteria

Sex
ALL
Age
18 Years - 75 Years
Healthy Volunteers
Not accepted

Interventions

  • Positive Airway Pressure — DEVICE
    Case participants will use Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) treatment as part of routine clinical care.

Study Details

Although obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder, there are no blood biomarkers for identification and management of these patients. This project will study microRNAs in order to develop and validate blood biomarkers that are specific to OSA, useful for identification of cases with OSA, reflective of efficacy of therapy, and able to predict blood pressure response to treatment of OSA.
