Each patient will complete a clinical consultation followed by admission to the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock facility to undergo routine assessment, diagnosis and CPAP titration (if necessary) of OSA. This will be performed according to the routine clinical care procedures and protocols of the site. The eligibility of each participant will be established during these routine clinical care nights. After night 2 eligible participants will be offered participation in the investigation.~Phase One:~Night 1 (Routine Clinical Care) Participants will attend the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive overnight diagnostic PSG, in order to establish the existence and severity of OSA. If the participant has~a positive diagnosis of OSA with an AHI > 15 events/hr and~≥ 90% of all events are Hypopneas they will be eligible to progress to Night 3. Night 2 (Routine Clinical Care) Participants will attend the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock sleep lab to undergo a standard CPAP titration, in order to determine their therapeutic CPAP pressure. At this stage, if the participant is eligible, they will be offered participation in the investigation. If potential participants are ineligible or unwilling to participate, they will continue along the routine clinical care path.~Night 3 (Flow Titration) Consented participants will attend the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive split-night respiratory PSG.~Each participant will be randomized to one of 20 L/min or 35 L/min of HF-CPAP for the first half of the night. A minimum of three hours on this flow must be recorded on the PSG before participants can be swapped to the alternate flow. Three hours on the alternate flow is also required for this half of the night to be deemed successful.~Responder/Non-responder Determination At the completion of night 3 participants will be categorized as responders or non-responders.~Only responders will continue to Phase 2 of the investigation. A responder is someone who;~Achieves a > 50% reduction in AHI and~Achieves an RDI < 10 events/hr. Investigation Break Before responders progress to Phase Two participants will be sent home for 1 week. During this time they will be instructed to undertake CPAP treatment. Their CPAP device will be set to their therapeutic pressure which was determined on Night 2.~Phase Two:~Night 4 (HF-CPAP compared with CPAP) Participants will attend the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive overnight respiratory PSG.~Each participant will be randomized to OpenCPAP at a flow rate of 35 L/min or to conventional CPAP at their therapeutic pressure. They will spend the entire night on this treatment arm.~Night 5 (HF-CPAP compared with CPAP) Participants will attend the HELIOS Klinik Hagen-Ambrock sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive overnight respiratory PSG.~Participants will be swapped to the alternative treatment arm, either HF-CPAP at a flow rate of 35 L/min or to conventional CPAP at their therapeutic pressure. They will spend the entire night on this treatment. In the morning at completion of the PSG, participants will be asked which treatment Night (4 or 5) they preferred.
Phase One:~High Flow (HF) CPAP (HF-CPAP) Titration:~Participants will attend the sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive split-night respiratory PSG. Each participant will be randomized to one of 20 L/min or 35 L/min of CPAP for the first half of the night and swapped to the alternate flow rate for the second half o the night.~At the completion of night 3 participants will be categorized as responders or non-responders. Only responders will continue to Phase 2 of the investigation.~Phase Two:~HF-CPAP compared with CPAP:~Participants will attend the sleep lab to undergo a comprehensive overnight respiratory PSG. Each participant will be randomized to HF-CPAP at a flow rate of 35 L/min or to conventional CPAP at their therapeutic pressure. They will spend the entire night on this treatment arm. Thew following night participants will undergo the alternative treatment arm for the duration of the night.
