Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Other interventions - Drive app
Treatment: Devices - Non contact motion sensor

Experimental: CPAP users - The Drive app will be used by CPAP users to identify any major issues with the usability and functionality of the app when used with CPAP therapy.


Other interventions: Drive app
The Drive app will be used to monitor sleep metrics for users of CPAP therapy.

Treatment: Devices: Non contact motion sensor
The non contact motion sensor will be used as a reference to the Drive app i.e. Drive app overnight recordings will be compared to the non contact motion sensor overnight recordings.

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usability and suitability of the Drive app (app under test) to measure sleep parameters during CPAP use.

This is a prospective, non-randomized, single arm exploratory study without blinding.

Current users of CPAP therapy will be recruited for this study and will be provided with a smartphone (app under test installed) and a non-contact motion sensor in their home environment. These devices will measure sleep metrics such as sleep stages and breathing metrics that may be associated with sleep disordered breathing. Usage and setup instructions will be provided for the study.

Participants will contribute up to 7 overnight recordings in the home environment and will complete daily questionnaires detailing their experience.

The study may be completed in two distinct phases, with an analysis performed after each phase. Each phase is expected to last up to six weeks with the overall study duration taking up to 12 months.
