- other participant circumstances that, in the opinion of a consensus of study team, would interfere with the safety of a prospective participant or their need for treatment (i.e., clinical needs of patient outweighs needs of research study). No exclusion criteria or any other study design elements will be used directly or indirectly to restrict study participation by women, members of minority groups, or primary language. Because men have a greater risk for OSA (and are identified and diagnosed at a greater rate) than women, we anticipate a final sample that reflects the OSA base rate differences on sex. Some minority groups are thought to have higher OSA prevalence rates than Caucasians, so assuming they are being screened/diagnosed at the same rates as Caucasians, we expect minority groups to be included in the study at levels that reflect those rates.
