Boston Area APAP Research Study Needs Participants

Post by DeVilbiss Marketing » Mon Oct 14, 2013 3:12 pm

This research study will try to improve the accuracy of treatment of CPAP so that the device better matches the subject’s treatment requirements, automatically.

To qualify:
You must have a diagnosis of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea, or central/complex sleep apnea.
You must be on stable CPAP or APAP therapy with compliant use averaging 4 or more hours nightly for at least 3 months.
You must be 21 to 75 years of age.

The study involves two visits, the first is a screening and the other is an overnight PSG in the sleep lab. Compensation for participation is available: $50.00 for an initial screening and $250.00 for the overnight PSG.

For further information, contact Mary Jane at 617-581-6403 or mscofield@neurocareinc.com
