About this study

Official title: SchlaHF-XF- Register. Sleep Disordered Breathing in Heart Failure Register

The SchlaHF XT Registry is a longitudinal study of patients with heart failure (HF). The study aims to understand the importance of diagnosis and treatment of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) on HF with the following questions:

How often does SDB occur in HF? What forms of SDB occur and how are they treated? How does SDB develop over time? How does the heart failure therapy affect SDB? What is the treatment adherence of patients treated? Does SBD and its treatment affect the survival of heart failure patients?

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of heart failure patients with sleep disordered breathing (apnea hypopnoea index >5)

    Assess the changes in prevalence of SDB in HF from baseline to 5 years

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of heart failure patients with sleep disordered breathing (apnea hypopnea index >5) when exposed to sleep disordered breathing treatment

    Assess changes in sleep disordered breathing when exposed to treatment from baseline to 5 years

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Number of heart failure patients with sleep disordered breathing (apnea hypopnea index >5) when exposed to Heart Failure treatment

    Assess changes in SDB when the patient is treated with heart failure therapy

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Number of patients adherent to sleep disordered breathing treatment as measured by device reported usage hours

    Assess adherence rates to treatment

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Number of deaths of patients with HF and sleep disordered breathing (apnea hypopnoea index >5) who are treated for sleep disordered breathing

    Assess survival rates of HF patients who are treated for sleep disordered breathing

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Heart Failure (HF), 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 3 inclusion and 5 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 9 Apr 2020. 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?

Number of heart failure patients with sleep disordered breathing (apnea hypopnoea index >5) (time frame: 5 years). 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 NCT02301689, 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 9 Apr 2020.
