Trial summary

This clinical trial is a monocentric, prospective, observational and controlled trial (historical cohort control group of healthy non-obese subjects who had Nasal functional exploration for Snoring) as part of current care. This study concerns the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Obesity: Prospective Evaluation of Upper Airway Obstruction and Compliance in Obese Patients in Pre and Post Bariatric Surgery : A Monocentric Observational Study

This clinical trial is a monocentric, prospective, observational and controlled trial (historical cohort control group of healthy non-obese subjects who had Nasal functional exploration for Snoring) as part of current care.

This study concerns the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). OSAS is elevated in subjects with morbid obesity (BMI≥40) (on average 70%). International recommendations agree on the need to seek OSAS before bariatric surgery because of the high risk of complications.

Increased nasal resistance could also be related to a limitation of inspiratory flow due to an abnormality of the elasticity of the nasal mucosa or "nasal compliance". Adipose infiltration of the nasal mucosa may occur during obesity.

These tissue changes (decreased vaso-erectile tissue and increased adipose tissue) could modify the nasal compliance, which the decrease would be a possible factor of severity of OSAS in obese patients. Screening for an abnormality of compliance could also anticipate a difficulty of equipment for Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) in the case of associated OSAS.

All patients who must have bariatric surgery and get in the criteria are included. They will have to do a medical checkup pre and post-operative (polygraphy + ear/nose/throat assessment (ENT) + Nasal functional exploration). They will be followed for 13 to 24 months.

The main objective of this research is to demonstrate a reduction of at least 30% of nasal compliance in a group of obese subjects (BMI> 35) compared to a control group of healthy subjects.

The secondary objectives are to is to demonstrate an increase of 30% in resistance in patients with BMI> 35 compared to control group and a normalization of nasal compliance 1 year after surgery when their weight is normalized (BMI <30).

A study period of 4 years is planned.

What is being measured

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

  1. To demonstrate a reduction of at least 30% of nasal compliance in a group of obese subjects (BMI> 35) compared to a control group of healthy subjects

    Measured: before bariatric surgery

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To demonstrate an increase of 30% in resistance in patients with BMI> 35 compared to control group

    Measured: before bariatric surgery

  2. To demonstrate a normalization of nasal compliance when the weight is normalized (BMI <30)

    Measured: 9 month (+3month) after bariatric surgery

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 6 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 4 Dec 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Emilie BEQUIGNON, PH ((0)1 49 81 24 91 ext. +33, emilie.bequignon@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To demonstrate a reduction of at least 30% of nasal compliance in a group of obese subjects (BMI> 35) compared to a control group of healthy subjects (time frame: before bariatric surgery). 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 4 Dec 2017.
