Brief description of study.

The purpose of this study is to determine the ICP of subjects with OSA while intubated and undergoing a spontaneous breathing trial by measuring the ICPs of subjects with OSA at baseline and during apnea events, measuring ICPS of subjects without OSA at baseline and during apnea events, and measuring the duration of elevated ICPs and comparing groups.

Detailed description of study

The purpose of this study is to determine the ICP of subjects with OSA while intubated and undergoing a spontaneous breathing trial by measuring the ICPs of subjects with OSA at baseline and during apnea events, measuring ICPS of subjects without OSA at baseline and during apnea events, and measuring the duration of elevated ICPs and comparing groups.

Eligibility of study

You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:

  • Conditions: intracranial pressure,obstructive sleep apnea
  • Age: 100 years or below
  • Gender: All

This study investigates the intracranial pressure (ICP) in people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). OSA is a condition where breathing stops and starts during sleep. The study will measure ICP in subjects with OSA while they are intubated and during a spontaneous breathing trial. It will also compare these measurements to those taken from subjects without OSA, both at baseline and during apnea events.

Participants will undergo procedures to measure ICP at different times. These measurements will help determine how long ICP remains elevated during apnea events in both groups. The results will compare the differences between those with and without OSA.

  • Who can participate: The study is open to individuals aged 18 to 65 who are diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and those without OSA. Participants must be undergoing a spontaneous breathing trial while intubated.
  • Study details: Participants will have their intracranial pressure measured during different conditions, including baseline and apnea events. This will involve monitoring while intubated and undergoing a spontaneous breathing trial.
