About this study

Official title: BiPAP (Automatic Servo Ventilation) autoSV Advanced in Central Apnea Patients

Pilot study testing the Bipap autoSV Advanced Algorithm during full night, in-lab polysomnography (PSG) and 3 months at home on patients with Central Sleep Apnea, Hunter Cheyne Stokes Respiration, or Complex Sleep Apnea.

Read the detailed description

Participants who qualify will be scheduled for one full night, attended diagnostic PSG, one full night attended continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration, and one full night attended BiPAP autoSV Advanced titration PSG. Participants will be provided a BiPAP autoSV Advanced to use at home for 90 days.

What is being measured

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

  1. Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI)

    To compare the AHI between the diagnostic CPAP titration and BiPAP autoSV Advanced PSG nights.

    Measured: During a single night of polysomnography lasting up to 8 hours.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Epworth Sleepiness Scale

    To determine if there are changes in subjective sleepiness on the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) between Baseline (Visit 1) and 3 months (Visit 6). The ESS is an 8 question survey that determines sleepiness, each question is rated as a 0-3 will the total score ranging from 0-24.

    Interpretation:

    Score 0-7: Unlikely that there is abnormal sleep Score 8-9: Average amount of daytime sleepiness Score 10-15: Possible excessive sleepiness depending on the situation. Patient may want to consider seeking medical attention.

    Score 16-24: Excessive sleepiness and patient should consider seeking medical attention

    A decrease in the score indicates improvements in a patients overall sleepiness. An increase in the score indicates increased sleepiness.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Breathing Event Indexes

    To determine if there are changes in breathing event indexes (Encore Pro Software) from the first 7 days of BiPAP autoSV Advanced at home treatment to the last 7 days of at home treatment to assess therapy efficacy.

    Values were determined by taking the average of the first 7 days of treatment and comparing them to the average of the last 7 days of treatment.

    Measured: from the first 7 days of BiPAP autoSV Advanced at home treatment to the last 7 days of at home treatment

  3. Average Therapy Pressure Values

    To compare BiPAP autoSV Advanced therapy pressure values (Encore Pro Software) from the first 7 days of BiPAP autoSV Advanced at home treatment to the last 7 days of at home treatment to determine if pressure requirements change over time.

    This analysis compares the average pressure support of the first week compared to the average pressure support to the final week.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing BiPAP autoSV Advanced in people with Cheyne-Stokes Respiration and Sleep Apnea, Central, run by Philips Respironics at 3 sites in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 13 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 28 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Apr 2016). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI) (time frame: During a single night of polysomnography lasting up to 8 hours.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01199042, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Apr 2016.
