Trial summary

Sleep is a fundamental need for human and is associated with the working performance and the disease occurrence. Furthermore, the amount of people with sleep disorder or apnea increased largely. Thus, the analysis of sleep stages and the measurement of sleep quality became more important recently. Read more about this study

About this study

Sleep is a fundamental need for human and is associated with the working performance and the disease occurrence. Furthermore, the amount of people with sleep disorder or apnea increased largely. Thus, the analysis of sleep stages and the measurement of sleep quality became more important recently. In clinical settings, the analysis of daily sleep quality depends on actigraphy and sleep log. However, the uses of actigraphy and sleep log are not really convenient for patients. In this trial, the investigators will measure the subjects' ECG signal and movement using a portable ECG device with motion sensor. On the other hand, the sleep stages are also obtained from the current wide-established measurement- polysomnography. The ECG signals, movements, and sleep stages will be analyzed by our algorithm of artificial neural network. Then, the investigators can obtain the preliminary analysis of sleep quality can be obtained by using ECG device with our algorithm. It is helpful for doctors to realize the patent's sleep quality quickly

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Far Eastern Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 1 inclusion and 2 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 8 Feb 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 Taiwan. 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?

RR interval changes compared to the report of polysomography (time frame: 8 hours). 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 8 Feb 2018.
