About this study

Official title: Beneficial Effects of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) Treatment by Automatic Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (APAP) vs Constant Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (Constant CPAP) According to the Level of the Efficient Pressure and Its Variability. A Multicentric Randomized Trial

The investigators propose a multicentric controlled randomized trial whose goal is to evaluate the possibility of a prediction of the efficiency of APAP (automatic continuous positive airway pressure) and constant CPAP (constant positive airway pressure) in 800 severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) patients according to their profile of pressure variability.

Read the detailed description

Multicenter open randomized clinical trial involving 800 patients with severe OSAS. After inclusion in the study, the patients will be proposed to initiate CPAP at home (ResMed S9 or PHILIPS PR1) using systematically an APAP mode between wide range of pressure variations (4 to 20 cm H2O) during the first 7day-period of time. After this first period of treatment, an analysis of the report will be released from the APAP in order evaluate the residual AHI, the duration of CPAP use and the amount of leaks in order to confirm CPAP efficiency and observance. Pressure parameters (efficient pressure and variability) will be collected. After randomization according to the further mode of ventilation to use (APAP vs constant CPAP), the patients will be treated at home for 3 months. In the constant CPAP group, efficient pressure will be determined as the P95 (ResMed) or the P90 (PHILIPS) as recommended by the manufacturers, while in the APAP group, the patients will be treated within the same range of pressure variations than during the first 7 day-period. Clinical and polygraphic evaluation will be done after 3 months of treatment, using the combined criteria previously described. In each group, results will be considered according to the efficient pressure value and its variability that were evaluated at the end of the first 7 day-period of treatment

What is being measured

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

  1. A combined score that takes into account the residual apnea hypopnea index (AHI) under CPAP associated with the value of the Epworth score after 3 months of treatment.

    The main objective of this study is to evaluate the ability to predict the mode of CPAP to use (APAP vs constant CPAP) in the treatment of OSAS patients, according to their own level of efficient pressure and its variability obtained on CPAP report after the first 7 days of use in an initial and systematic APAP mode. This prediction will be evaluated by using the association of the residual AHI value under CPAP and the Epworth score value obtained after 3 months of treatment, in each group of CPAP mode (constant vs APAP) used during the study. This combined criteria will be used according an ordinal scale with six levels of severity. It will be evaluated in each group (constant CPAP vs APAP) according to the level of P90 or P95 and the degree of pressure variability obtained during the first 7 day-period of use.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Constant Continuous Positive Airway Pressure and Automatic continuous Positive Airway Pressure in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndromes, run by Poitiers University Hospital.

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 10 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 25 Apr 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

A combined score that takes into account the residual apnea hypopnea index (AHI) under CPAP associated with the value of the Epworth score after 3 months of treatment. (time frame: 3 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 25 Apr 2016.
