Condition: Sleep Apnea, Obstructive · Sponsor: Flinders University
This pilot study will establish the feasibility of a larger trial to investigate whether reboxetine, a medication used to treat depression, can reduce the severity of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) including increased blood oxygenation in post-surgical OSA patients where positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is either frequently poorly tolerated or not an option immediately post surgery. In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study, participants will use at-home sleep monitoring equipment before and after surgery plus measures of oxygenation. They will be prescribed either reboxetine or a placebo for seven days after surgery and complete questionnaires at the beginning and end of the study.
