About this study

Official title: Sleep-related Breathing Disorders in Cardiological Outpatients From a German University Clinic - Prevalence, Classification, Diagnostic Accuracy

The purpose of this study is to determine the prevalence of sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD) in clinically stable cardiologic outpatients of a German university clinic by means of polygraphy.

Furthermore, the practicability of the underlying diagnostic process in clinical application is assessed as well as the sensitivity and specificity of polygraphy as compared to the reference standard of polysomnography. Another aim is to determine the individual cardiovascular risk profile by pulse wave analysis and risk classification according to European Society of Hypertension (ESH) and European Society of Cardiology (ESC), "ESH/ESC risk".

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of sleep-related breathing disorders

    Prevalence of sleep-related breathing disorders as measured by ambulatory polygraphy and defined as an respiratory disturbance index of >=15/h

    Measured: Once within two days of inclusion

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of patients included

    Total number of patients included in the study after overall study conclusion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 21 months

  2. Number of patients with actually performed polygraphy

    Total number of patients in whom ambulatory polygraphy was actually performed, after overall study conclusion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 21 months

  3. Number of patients with assessable polygraphy

    Total number of patients in whom ambulatory polygraphy was assessable, after overall study conclusion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 21 months

  4. Number of patients with actually performed polysomnography

    Total number of patients in whom stationary polysomnography was actually performed, after overall study conclusion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 21 months

  5. Number of patients with assessable polysomnography

    Total number of patients in whom stationary polysomnography was assessable, after overall study conclusion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 21 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sleep Apnea Syndromes, run by Wissenschaftliches Institut Bethanien e.V 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 4 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 29 Oct 2018. 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?

Prevalence of sleep-related breathing disorders (time frame: Once within two days of inclusion). 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 29 Oct 2018.
