• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2010-07-01

Summary

1. CPAP compliance will be significantly higher in both the heated humidity with Thermosmart™ and the nasal steroid phases compared to the double placebo phase.

2. CPAP compliance will be comparably improved in the heated humidity with Thermosmart™ phase versus the nasal steroid phase.

3. Improvement in nasal symptoms in using CPAP will be significantly improved in both the heated humidity with Thermosmart™ and the nasal steroid phases compared to the double placebo phase, and comparable between the heated humidity with Thermosmart™ phase versus the nasal steroid phase.

4. Secondary to improvements in CPAP compliance, measures of daytime functioning and quality of life will improve in the heated humidity with Thermosmart™ versus double placebo.
