Trial summary

To measure the spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity in ambulatory patient, a device made for measuring blood pressure beat by beat and continuously, the SOMNOtouch system, could be a useful tool. The SOMNOtouch system has never been used to assess the sensitivity of the baroreflex. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Pilot Study to Evaluate the Somnotouch Device to Quantify Spontaneous Baroreflex Sensitivity in Healthy Subjects and in Patients With Heart Failure

To measure the spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity in ambulatory patient, a device made for measuring blood pressure beat by beat and continuously, the SOMNOtouch system, could be a useful tool. The SOMNOtouch system has never been used to assess the sensitivity of the baroreflex. A good correlation for measuring the baroreflex sensitivity between the system "SOMNOtouch" and digital photoplethysmography as a reference method is expected but should be evaluated. The main purpuse is to evaluate the SOMNOtouch system to quantify the spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity in healthy young subjects, in elderly healthy subjects and in subjects with heart failure. We will also evaluate the feasibility of measuring the baroreflex sensitivity in ambulatory conditions for 24 hours, the variations in sensitivity of the baroreflex sensitivity between day and night, the reproducibility of orthostatic tolerance test.

What participants receive

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

  • SOMNOtouch device (Somnomedics)Device

    In each arm, we will evaluate the capacity of SOMNOtouch to measure the baroreflex sensitivity compared to Finapre Nova (reference)

  • Orthostatic testProcedure or surgery

    For each arm we will proceed to an orthostatic test day one and day two with :

    • 10 minutes in supine position
    • 10 minutes in sitting position
    • 5 minutes in standing position
    • 5 minutes in supine position
  • Finapres Nova device (FMS system)Device

What is being measured

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

  1. Coefficient of correlation in baroreflex sensitivity measurements between SOMNOTOUCH and FINAPRES nova during the orthostatic test

    baroreflex sensitivity is measured by comparison of the variations in heart rate and in blood pressure (baroreflexe slope method \& fransfer function method). We will compare this baroreflex sensitivity obtained from SOMNOTOUCH measurement and from Finapres nova measurements (coefficient of correlation)

    Measured: Day one

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Coefficient of correlation in baroreflex sensitivity measurements between day one and day two during the orthostatic test

    baroreflex sensitivity is measured by comparison of the variations in heart rate and in blood pressure (baroreflex slope method \& fransfer function method). We will compare this baroreflex sensitivity between the two active orthostatic tests (coefficient of correlation).

    Measured: Day two vs Day one

  2. Duration of recordings in hours over 24 hours that allows the measurement of the spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity with the SOMNOTOUCH system

    We will mesure over 24 hours the duration in hours when the measurement of the baroreflex sensitivity is possible taken in account the quality of the physiological signals.

    Measured: Day one (24 hours)

  3. Difference in the baroreflex sensitivity between Day & Night

    We will compare the baroreflex sensitivity between day and night in each group and between groups.

    Measured: Day one (24 hours)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SOMNOtouch device (Somnomedics), Orthostatic test and Finapres Nova device (FMS system) in people with Healthy and Heart Failure, run by University Hospital, Angers at 2 sites in France.

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 7 inclusion and 8 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 7 Jan 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Coefficient of correlation in baroreflex sensitivity measurements between SOMNOTOUCH and FINAPRES nova during the orthostatic test (time frame: Day one). 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 7 Jan 2020.
