What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Core temperature

    This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.core temperatue is measured continuously during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air

    Measured: One day

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sleep stages, apnea-hypopnea index

    This is an experitmetal study. Subjects receive oxygen or placebo-air during one night in random order. Outcome measure, i.e.the amount of differernt sleep stages, total sleep time and apnea-hypopnea index is measured during this night with ongoing treatment of oxygen or placebo-air

    Measured: One day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oxygen in people with Cardiac Disease and Cheyne-Stokes Respiration, run by Umeå University at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Apr 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Core temperature (time frame: One day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Apr 2011.
