Treatment and study plan

Novel System

Device

A Novel full Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) system - Prototype Device, Mask + Accessories

Traditional System

Device

A Traditional full Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) system- Released Device + Accessories, Prototype Mask

Other names: AirSense System

Primary outcomes

  1. Subjective usability ratings of the prototype system using a visual analogue scale, compared to a reference level and the second full system.

    Time frame: 1 year

    Participants will be asked to complete a short questionnaire at the end of each week to evaluate the general usability of the system. The questionnaire will include questions related to system use and comfort. The participants will answer the questions using an 11-point Likert scale.
