About this study

The purpose of the study is to investigate the prevalence, clinical predictors and consequences (effect on survival, chronic rejection) of sleep disordered breathing in lung transplant recipients.

Read the detailed description

All patients with end-stage respiratory failure who are referred for lung transplantation and are older than 18 years old are enrolled.

We collect:

  • Medical history
  • Blood pressure
  • Anthropometrics
  • Pulmonary function
  • Arterial blood gas
  • Questionnaire (QOL, ESS)
  • Sleep diary
  • Polysomnography

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of sleep disordered breathing

    Polysomnography will be performed at discharge from the hospital (1 month average)

    Measured: 1 month after lung transplantation

  2. Prevalence of sleep disordered breathing

    Polysomnographic evaluation

    Measured: 1 year after lung transplantation

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Pulmonary function

    Effect of SDB on pulmonary function/BOS

    Measured: 1 year after lung transplantation

  2. Investigate possible relationship between SDB and patient medical history

    Measured: 1 year after lung transplantation
