About this study

Official title: Effect of Mobile-health and Comprehensive Physical Therapy on Moderate-to-severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Hypoventilation Syndrome

To observe comprehensive physical therapy program for OSAHS patients

Read the detailed description

This study proposes to conduct a randomized controlled trial ,using an APP and wearable devices to provide comprehensive physical therapy and monitoring for people with moderate to severe OSAHS,to assess the effectiveness and adherence of different physiotherapy programs for patients with moderate-to-severe OSAHS by observing the improvement of sleep apnea hypoventilation index (AHI), nocturnal minimum oxygen saturation (Low SpO2), mean oxygen saturation (Mean SpO2), and other health outcomes in the study population. It is expected to explore a clinical treatment pathway suitable for patients with moderate-to-severe OSAHS through mobile app and comprehensive physical therapy, improve the treatment adherence of OSAHS patients, enhance the level of health management services in hospitals, and obtain more physical health and health economic benefits.

What participants receive

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

  • Myofunctional TherapyBehavioural

    Also called MT

    Oropharyngeal and tongue exercises : strengthening upper airway muscle 20 minutes

  • Inspiratory Muscle TrainingBehavioural

    Also called IMT

    Respiratory muscle strengthening:inspiratory muscle strengthening by resistive loading of 50% maximum inspiratory pressure.

  • Aerobic ExerciseBehavioural

    Also called AE

    Exercise intensity :40%-60% HRmax , 3-5 days/week

What is being measured

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

  1. apnea-hypopnea index(AHI)

    The home sleep apnea test (HSAT) device was used to detect the AHI of OSAHS patients, and the AHI was defined as the average number of apneas or hypoventilation per hour during sleep. According to the guidelines and related literature grouping,AHI ≥ 5 times/h was diagnosed as OSAHS, 5 times/h ≤ AHI < 15 times/h as mild OSAHS, and AHI ≥ 15 times/h as moderate to severe OSAHS.

    Our study observe the changes in apnea-hypopnea index from baseline to 3 months

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Minimum oxygen saturation at night(Low SpO2)

    The home sleep apnea test (HSAT) device was used to detect the Low SpO2 of OSAHS patients. Our study observe the changes in Low SpO2 from baseline to 3 months.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Myofunctional Therapy, Inspiratory Muscle Training and Aerobic Exercise in people with OSAHS and Oropharyngeal Muscle Training, run by China National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases.

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 13 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 14 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Yifan Wu (010-88398069, wuyifan1127@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

apnea-hypopnea index(AHI) (time frame: 3 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 14 May 2024.
