Study Summary

Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) will evidence higher levels of salivary cortisol and alpha-amylase levels prior to use of placebo and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and will evidence a decrease in these levels after consistent use of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy as compared to placebo. Their level of sleepiness will also decrease with the use of CPAP therapy and will correlate with the levels of salivary cortisol and alpha-amylase in relation to their subjective sleepiness scale, Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT), and pupillometry.

Primary Outcome

Salivary Cortisol was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The reference range for healthy adults is \<4.2 nmol/l. Samples were collected at \~7am and \~11pm on each Day: 0, 1, 7 and 14 through a salivary swab.

Interventions

  • DEVICE 14 days of placebo therapy
  • DEVICE 14 days of CPAP therapy
