Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether treatment with armodafinil will provide improvements in prefrontal cortical activation in patients with OSAHS (Obstructive Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome) who have residual sleepiness despite receiving nCPAP therapy.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome was the change from baseline in number of contiguous activated voxels in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) at Week 2(or last observation after baseline). Each voxel is compared to the reference wave form. If it differs from that value p\<0.05, the voxel is considered active. fMRI is a brain imaging technique that identifies neuronal activation related to specific tasks or sensory stimulation. Increased neuronal activity
