Trial summary

Covid-19 infection is an on-going pandemic with worse diagnosis in adults with comorbid conditions such as hypertension and cardiopulmonary diseases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in those comorbidities and may contribute to worse prognosis for the Covid-19 cases. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Impact of Obstructive Sleep Apnea on Covid-19 Outcomes (OSACOVID-19 Study): A Prospective Observational Cohort Study

Covid-19 infection is an on-going pandemic with worse diagnosis in adults with comorbid conditions such as hypertension and cardiopulmonary diseases. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in those comorbidities and may contribute to worse prognosis for the Covid-19 cases.

Read the detailed description

The investigators' primary aim is to address the association between the high probability of having OSA and Covid-19 outcomes within 28 days of the hospitalization.

Secondary outcomes will be conducting a polysomnography in cases with high probability of having OSA compared to those with low probability, approx. 4 months after the Covid-19 diagnosis, and re-evaluate the association of the verified OSA diagnosis and severity with the outcomes in the first 4 weeks as well as with the outcomes after 4 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. The rate of clinical improvement

    Defined as a decline of 2 categories from admission on a 7-category ordinal scale

    Measured: 7 days

  2. The rate of clinical improvement

    Defined as a decline of 2 categories from admission on a 7-category ordinal scale

    Measured: 14 days

  3. The rate of clinical improvement

    Defined as a decline of 2 categories from admission on a 7-category ordinal scale

    Measured: 21 days

  4. The rate of clinical improvement

    Defined as a decline of 2 categories from admission on a 7-category ordinal scale

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical status - improvement

    Time to hospital discharge, ICU discharge, weaning from intubation, weaning from supplemental oxygen, incident pneumonia, ARDS, in-hospital mortality

    Measured: 7, 14, 21, 28 days

  2. Clinical status - worsening

    Defined as an increase in category on a 7-category ordinal scale from admission

    Measured: 7, 14, 21, 28 days
