About this study

Official title: NXT_SLEEP: the Development of a Next Generation Sleep Monitoring Platform

The NXT_SLEEP study, bringing together industry partners, research groups and (home) care providers, tackles will develop a next generation sleep-monitoring platform that consists of less obtrusive sensors, and that delivers complete and useful information regarding the physiological parameters relevant for sleep-related breathing disorders.

These new and innovative sensors need to be validated in a clinical setting where they will be benchmarked with the classical sleep monitoring systems. In order to compare the novel sensors with the classical monitoring system, the investigators use existing technologies that capture simultaneously the acquired signals of different physiological parameters relevant for sleep-related breathing disorders.

Read the detailed description

Sleep-related breathing disorders are recognized as major risk factors for mortality due to their effect on the cardiovascular system. Currently, these sleeping disorders are diagnosed using polysomnography (PSG), which is a sleep test that monitors different physiological signals such as heart rate, respiration, ECG, muscle tone and eye movement.

Although polysomnography is an important diagnostic tool for sleep medicine, it is an uncomfortable and costly procedure, especially when multiple nights of observation are required. In order to reduce costs and improve patients comfort, different home monitoring systems (using different numbers and type of sensors) have been introduced to the market, but those focus especially on self-screening and collect general sleep information. In addition to increasing comfort and reducing costs, the diagnostic capabilities of PSG need to be enhanced. This can be achieved by adding novel sensors that may capture new information and improve the measurement of vital physiological parameters during sleep

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in breathing pattern during sleep by a movement sensor

    New innovative sensors will measure breathing pattern during the night, simultaneously with the classical monitoring systems in order to validate the new sensors.

    Measured: During 5 nights

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change in ECG

    Measured: During 5 nights

  2. Change in end tidal carbon dioxide fraction

    Measured: During 5 nights

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sensor testing and validation in people with Respiratory Patients, run by University Hospital, Antwerp at 1 site in Belgium.

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 2 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 28 May 2015. 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 Belgium. 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?

Change in breathing pattern during sleep by a movement sensor (time frame: During 5 nights). 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 28 May 2015.
