Trial summary

Sleep disordered breathing is very common in patients with chronic heart failure with reported prevalence rates of 50-75%. Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) can be used to treat sleep apnea in these patients. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Feasibilty of Respiratory Monitoring With Adaptive Servoventilation (PaceWave™) to Predict Worsening of Heart Failure in Patients With Severe Heart Failure and Sleep-disordered Breathing

Sleep disordered breathing is very common in patients with chronic heart failure with reported prevalence rates of 50-75%. Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) can be used to treat sleep apnea in these patients. This is an observational study to document changes in respiratory parameters in HF patients using ASV for a period of 12 months.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT02133859
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Chronic Heart Failure patients using ASVPatients with chronic heart failure who are using or willing to use adaptive servo ventilation (ASV) therapy will be enrolled. Respiratory data will be collected from this group every 3 months over a 12 month period

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation of hypoxemia, as measured by overnight pulse oximetery, with worsening heart failure

    Hypoxemia, as measured by pulse oximetery will be compared with heart failure status to measure if a correlation exists between hypoxemia and deterioration of heart failure

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Heart Failure, run by ResMed at 1 site in Germany.

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 27 Apr 2017. 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 Germany. 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?

Correlation of hypoxemia, as measured by overnight pulse oximetery, with worsening heart failure (time frame: 12 months). 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 27 Apr 2017.
