Trial summary

High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) ventilation therapy was found to improve the severity of obstructive sleep apnea in non-stroke subjects. The investigators hypothesized that HFNC might be effective in stroke patients with dysphagia who needed nasogastric tube feeding and can not receive continuous positive airway… Read more about this study

About this study

High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) ventilation therapy was found to improve the severity of obstructive sleep apnea in non-stroke subjects. The investigators hypothesized that HFNC might be effective in stroke patients with dysphagia who needed nasogastric tube feeding and can not receive continuous positive airway pressure ventilation for obstructive sleep apnea.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • high flow nasal cannula ventilationDevice

    High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) ventilation therapy: supply heated \& humidified air up to 60 L/min of flow; effects: positive end expiratory pressure effect, humidification.

What is being measured

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

  1. apnea-hypopnea index

    respiratory inductance plethysmography sum (RIPsum) without calibration to score apnea and hypopnea events (American Academy of Sleep Medicine alternative criteria)

    Measured: once at polysomnography study night when receive high flow nasal cannula titration study

  2. oxyhemoglobin desaturation index

    number of times per hour of sleep that the blood's oxygen saturation level drops by ≥ 3% from baseline

    Measured: once at polysomnography study night when receive high flow nasal cannula titration study

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. pulse wave velocity

    velocity (m/s) measured by SphygmoCor CPV system

    Measured: baseline and 1 week after high flow nasal cannula therapy

  2. heart rate variability

    measured by QHRV system (Medeia Ltd.)

    Measured: baseline and 1 week after high flow nasal cannula therapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing high flow nasal cannula ventilation in people with Cerebral Infarction and Sleep Apnea, Obstructive, run by Chang Gung 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 22 Nov 2019. 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?

apnea-hypopnea index (time frame: once at polysomnography study night when receive high flow nasal cannula titration study). 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 22 Nov 2019.
