Trial summary

The aim of the study is to identify the parameters that are associated with nocturnal hypoventilation in children and adults with cystic fibrosis. Included patients will undergo a nocturnal evaluation of their gas exchange and sleep quality by actigraphy during their annual check up. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Predictors of Nocturnal Hypoventilation in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

The aim of the study is to identify the parameters that are associated with nocturnal hypoventilation in children and adults with cystic fibrosis. Included patients will undergo a nocturnal evaluation of their gas exchange and sleep quality by actigraphy during their annual check up. The aim is thus to identify which parameters (such as lung function parameters) are associated with nocturnal hypercapnia or hypoxemia and/or poor sleep quality

Read the detailed description

Background In patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), respiratory disease is characterised by a progressive and ineluctable decline in lung function. Sleep-disordered breathing may occur at an early stage of lung disease and may impair quality of life. Oxygen therapy or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation may improve nocturnal hypoxemia and hypercapnia.Risk factors for nocturnal hypercapnia or hypoxemia are not well identified in patients with CF.

Type of study : prospective, transversal, open

Methods :

During the annual check up, a sleep study will be performed with a nocturnal recording of a least 6 hours of pulse oximetry (SaO2) and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) by the SENTEC device and wrist movements by means of actigraphy. The results of the sleep study will be correlated to·

  • clinical scores which evaluate sleep quality (such as the PITTSBURG Sleep Quality Score).·
  • respiratory function parameters : lung volumes, forced expiratory of the respiratory muscles: maximal inspiratory and expiratory pressures and the sniff nasal inspiratory pressure.·
  • nutritional state with the body mass index z-score·
  • the presence of arterial pulmonary hypertension on an echocardiography·
  • infectious status (colonisation by Staphylococcus aureus or Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and the CFTR genotype.

Expected results This study should be able to document abnormal nocturnal gas exchange and sleep-disordered breathing in patients with CF in a stable state. The identification of parameters associated with nocturnal hypoventilation and/or poor sleep quality will help to screen those patients who will need a sleep study and treatment such as oxygen therapy or noninvasive positive pressure ventilation.

What is being measured

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

  1. To determine clinical and functional parameters associated with nocturnal hypoventilation defined by· - A mean transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (PtcCO2) ≥ 45 mm Hg· - And/or a maximal PtcCO2 ≥ 55 mm Hg· - And/or a PtcCO2 ≥ 45 mm Hg during ≥ 50%

    Measured: At the inclusion visit

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine clinical and functional parameters associated with- sleep -disordered breathing defined by the presence of arousals on actigraphy (Actiwatch™) in children and adults with CF - nocturnal hypoxemia defined by -- a mean pulse oximetry (SaO2)

    Measured: At the inclusion visit

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cystic Fibrosis, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 7 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 3 Jun 2010. 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 France. 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. 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?

To determine clinical and functional parameters associated with nocturnal hypoventilation defined by· - A mean transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (PtcCO2) ≥ 45 mm Hg· - And/or a maximal PtcCO2 ≥ 55 mm Hg· - And/or a PtcCO2 ≥ 45 mm Hg during ≥ 50% (time frame: At the inclusion visit). 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 3 Jun 2010.
