Trial summary

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition of Down syndrome patients. In pediatric practice, there is no way to determine the children with an increased risk. The aim of the study is to determine the reliability of four questionnaires used in pediatric patients in screening of OSA in Down syndrome children. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Obstructive Sleep Apnea Screening and Down Syndrome in Childhood : the Reliability of the Clinical Examination

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition of Down syndrome patients. In pediatric practice, there is no way to determine the children with an increased risk. The aim of the study is to determine the reliability of four questionnaires used in pediatric patients in screening of OSA in Down syndrome children.

Prospective study where patients are evaluated on airway diseases and aeroallergens sensitization with 2 parental surveys (PSQ-SRBD and CSHQ), otolaryngologic problems by completing by the ENT surgeon 2 others surveys (CAS-15 and SCR), and sleep disease with an overnight polysomnography (PSG), in University Hospital in Nice.

Read the detailed description

Introduction: Children with Down syndrome (DS) commonly have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) though undervalued by parents and physicians. Several sleep questionnaires are used in paediatric patients to detect high risk children who have OSA, but not really appropriate for DS patients. The aim of the study is to determine the reliability of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients (PSQ-SRBD: Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire-Sleep-Related Breathing Disorder, CSHQ: Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire, CAS-15: Clinical Assessment Score-15 and SCR: Sleep Clinical Record) in screening of OSA in DS population.

Study design: Prospective study concerning children with Down syndrome (age 1-18y). Parents will complete two sleep symptom questionnaires (PSQ-SRBD and CSHQ) and children will be evaluated by a paediatric pulmonologist and allergist with skin allergy test. An Ear, Nose and Throat specialist will complete two questionnaires (CAS-15 and SCR) carrying a nasopharyngoscopy. Then, children will perform an overnight polysomnography in the Department of Paediatric Functional Investigations of University Hospital in Nice.

What is being measured

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

  1. determine the reliability of the Sensitivity of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    Sensitivity each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. determine the reliability of the specificity of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    specificity of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

  2. determine the reliability of positive predictive value of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    positive predictive value of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

  3. determine the reliability of negative predictive value of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    negative predictive value of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

  4. determine the reliability of positive likelihood ratio of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    positive likelihood of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

  5. determine the reliability of negative likelihood ratio of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    negative likelihood ratio of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

  6. determine the reliability of area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population

    area under a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of each survey (PSQ-SRBD, CSHQ, CAS-15, SCR) depending on the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index in the group if children who have an OSA syndrome.

    Measured: At the inclusion

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep Symptom in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Fondation Lenval at 1 site 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 4 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 30 Jul 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 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?

determine the reliability of the Sensitivity of four questionnaires used in paediatric patients in screening of OSA in DS population (time frame: At the 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 30 Jul 2018.
