About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicentre, Randomised, Blinded Study of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Detection Using the Sunrise Solution

A prospective, randomised, blinded pilot study comparing the Sunrise solution and overnight polygraphy for the diagnosis of OSA in adult patients. Patients under investigation for OSA will use both devices simultaneously for a single overnight sleep study. They will be randomised to receive their treatment decision based on either the Sunrise solution or polygraphy. A retrospective check of their diagnosis will be done.

Being tested
Sunrise, Polygraphy
Medical subject headings
Sleep Apnea, Obstructive

What participants receive

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

  • SunriseDevice

    Sunrise (Sunrise SA, Belgium) is a novel integrated digital medicine solution for the diagnosis of OSA allowing the detection of respiratory disorders from the analysis of mandibular movements optimised by an artificial intelligence algorithm "machine learning". It is composed of a unique innovative sensor, placed on the chin during the night, connected via Bluetooth to a mobile application which guides the patients for the implementation and allows the transfer of the data collected by the sensor to a certified health host guaranteeing the security and confidentiality of medical data. The analysed data is integrated and automatically transferred into a detailed report made available to doctors via a secure website the day after the test.

  • PolygraphyDevice

    Polygraphy (Apnoealink-Air, ResMed, Australia) is a commercially available, limited-channel sleep study device which can be used in the home. Many sleep services in the UK already use the ApneaLink Air for routine screening. It is a portable device which consists of a nasal cannula to measure nasal flow and snoring, oximeter to measure pulse and blood oxygen levels, and a chest band to measure respiratory effort. It contains software which allows for the scoring of apnoeas, hypopnoea and arousals.

What is being measured

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

  1. Time to treatment decision

    Time (days) from sleep study device dispatch to treatment decision

    Measured: From date of sleep study device dispatch until the date of treatment decision, assessed typically within 1 month but up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Time to treatment decision; RBH vs NHS Scotland Sleep Service

    Time (days) from sleep study device dispatch to treatment decision; inner London (Royal Brompton hospital) vs Scottish Highlands (NHS Scotland Sleep Service)

    Measured: From date of sleep study device dispatch until the date of treatment decision, assessed typically within 1 month but up to 6 months

  2. AHI

    Apnoea-hypopnoea index compared between sleep study devices; Sunrise and polygraphy

    Measured: After completion of the sleep studies and data from both devices is available; typically within 1 month but up to 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sunrise and Polygraphy in people with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust at 2 sites in United Kingdom.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 30 Mar 2023. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Time to treatment decision (time frame: From date of sleep study device dispatch until the date of treatment decision, assessed typically within 1 month but up to 6 months). 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 30 Mar 2023.
