What is being measured

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

  1. Average oxygen saturation

    Average oxygen saturation was assessed by home sleep apnea testing(HSAT)

    Measured: Change from Baseline to 84±4days

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Lowest saturation

    Lowest saturation in percentage(%) was assessed by home sleep apnea testing(HSAT)

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  2. Percentage of total sleep time associated with saturation lower than 90% (T90SaO2 )

    T90SaO2 in percentage(%) was assessed by home sleep apnea testing(HSAT)

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  3. AHI

    AHI was assessed by home sleep apnea testing(HSAT)

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  4. Heart rate variability

    Heart rate variability was assessed by Holter

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  5. Coronary flow reserve

    Coronary flow reserve was assessed by Ultrasonic Cardiogram

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  6. Platelet(PLT) count

    PLT in 10^9/L

    Measured: baseline, 28±2days and 84±4days

  7. Low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C)

    LDL-C in mmol/L

    Measured: baseline, 28±2days and 84±4days

  8. Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbAlc)

    HbAlc in percentage(%)

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  9. Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS)

    questionnaire

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

  10. Quality of life scale (WHOQOL-BREF)

    questionnaire

    Measured: baseline and 84±4days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tibet Rhodiola Capsule in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Shao-Ping Nie at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 13 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2017. 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 China. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average oxygen saturation (time frame: Change from Baseline to 84±4days). 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 26 Jul 2017.
