About this study

Official title: Impact of Sleep Disordered Breathing on Cardiac Injury in Acutely Decompensated Congestive Heart Failure

The goal of this study is to determine if sleep disordered breathing results in a measurable degree of overnight myocardial stress/injury in patients with acutely decompensated congestive heart failure. A secondary goal is to determine of a period of medical management attenuates this sleep disordered breathing-induced cardiac injury in this patient population.

Read the detailed description

Consecutive patients admitted to the hospital with acutely decompensated heart failure will be identified for potential enrollment in this study. Enrolled patients will first be asked to complete questionnaires to assess their symptoms and risk of having sleep apnea.

Relevant information will be obtained from the electronic medical record (age, gender, body mass index, co-morbidities, medications, prior echocardiography results). Subjects will then undergo a "type III" portable monitoring sleep study on the first or second night of their hospital admission, which measures respiratory effort, nasal airflow, oxyhemoglobin saturation, and heart rate. Blood samples will be collected on the evening before (08:00 PM +/- 2 hours), and the morning after (06:00 AM +/-2 hours) sleep apnea testing. If not otherwise obtained clinically, echocardiography will be obtained within 48 hours of admission. After a period of medical management for acutely decompensated heart failure, subjects will then have a second portable sleep apnea study (with associated pre and post-sleep blood draws) on the evening prior to discharge (approximately hospital day 5 or 6). Later, clinical outcomes such as incidence of renal dysfunction, hospital length of stay etc. will be collected from the electronic medical record. Blood samples will be processed, stored, and subsequently analyzed for high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and I.

What is being measured

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

  1. Overnight Troponin Change Admission

    Overnight change in serum troponin concentration PRE vs POST sleep

    Measured: 10 hours

  2. Overnight Troponin Change Discharge

    Overnight change in serum troponin concentration PRE vs POST sleep

    Measured: 10 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Heart Failure; With Decompensation, run by University of California, San Diego at 2 sites in United States.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in United States. 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?

Overnight Troponin Change Admission (time frame: 10 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 5 Aug 2021.
