Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to identify whether sleep-disordered breathing - as measured by overnight polysomnography - is associated with pre-eclampsia and to determine whether use of positive airway pressure can improve nocturnal blood pressure.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Initial enrollment began with only women with a pre-existing diagnosis of pre-eclampsia. Part way through the study, IRB granted approval to expand recruitment to include other hypertensive diagnoses. So, in effect, a more accurate post hoc title would be Study of Positive Airway Pressure to Reduce Blood Pressure in Hypertensive Pregnancies.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Positive Airway Pressure (compliant)

This arm was women who used auto-titrating positive airway pressure (APAP) for at least 4 hours per night

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Positive Airway Pressure

Intervention Type DEVICE

Women will use positive airway pressure until delivery

Standard care

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Positive Airway Pressure (non-compliant)

No one was assigned to this arm, but for results data quality purposes, women assigned to PAP who were explicitly non-compliant (used less than 4 hours per night), were analyzed separately from women who were compliant with the PAP assignment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Positive Airway Pressure

Intervention Type DEVICE

Women will use positive airway pressure until delivery
