About this study

Official title: The Incidence of Fibromyalgia in Patients with OUAS and the Effect of CPAP Treatment on Fibromiyalgia Symptom Severity

-------------Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a syndrome characterized by recurrent complete (apnea) or partial (hypopnea) upper respiratory tract obstruction episodes during sleep and a decrease in blood oxygen saturation. It has been suggested that nocturnal arterial desaturation in patients with OSAS is effective on pain. Intermittent hypoxia and oxidative stress occur in patients with OSAS. Intermittent hypoxia occurring in patients with OSAS causes increased levels of HIF-1-α and mitochondrial reactive oxygen products, resulting in the formation, processing, and formation of central and peripheral synthesis. When the literature is examined, pressure-related pain threshold was measured with algometer in female patients diagnosed with sleep apnea and in the control group, and it was found lower in patients with OSAS.

Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a clinical picture with many symptoms such as chronic widespread pain, fatigue, sleep disturbance, cognitive dysfunction. Similar sleep patterns were observed in FMS and OSAS.

In addition to sleep symptoms such as the presence of a similar sleep pattern, a feeling of rest and daytime sleepiness in cases of OSAS and FMS, it has been suggested that these two diseases may be related to each other. Studies examining the relationship between OSAS and FMS syndrome, including sleep disturbance and pain symptoms, are rare in the literature. In the current literature, there are various limitations such as insufficient number of cases, significant difference between demographic characteristics such as gender, ethnicity, age.

Therefore, primary goal of this study is to investigate the association of FMS in patients diagnosed with OSAS. The secondary aim is to investigate the effect of CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) treatment on pain sensitivity and symptom severity, functional level, depression in patients diagnosed with FMS, and to investigate the relationship between these parameters and polysomnographic data

Read the detailed description

Patients between 30-65 years of age who were diagnosed with OSAS according to American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) criteria and who had clinical symptoms of OSAS for at least 1 year before diagnosis will be performed. All OSAS patients recommended and not recommended for CPAP treatment in the sleep clinic will be evaluated according to the American Rheumatology Association (ACR) 1990 and 2016 criteria for FMS. Patients meeting both criteria will be accepted as FMS.

Demographic data and polysomnographic data of patients such as age, height, weight, BMI, occupation, educational status (polysomnographic data (AHI, min. O₂ sat, O₂ saturation \<90% elapsed time and percentage, sleep latency, sleep efficacy, REM, nREM1,2,3 polysomnographic data such as times, REM latency, severity of OSAS) will be recorded.

What participants receive

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

  • continuous positive airway pressureDevice

    continuous positive airway pressure is a form of positive airway pressure ventilator, which applies mild air pressure on a continuous basis to keep the airways continuously open in people who are able to breathe spontaneously on their own, but need help keeping their airway unobstructed

  • PolysomnographyDevice

    Polysomnography measures Apnea-hypopnea index (Minutes)

    Classify and identify Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS):

    1. Apnea-hypopnea index: 5-14.9 olan; mild OSAS
    2. Apnea-hypopnea index: 15-29.9: moderate OSAS
    3. Apnea-hypopnea index ≥30: severe OSAS measures duration and percentage of time oxygen saturation dropped below 90% the total minutes of sleep

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual Analoge Scale

    Mnimum-maximum values: 0-10 Higher scores mean worse outcome for pain scores

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

  2. Algometer

    pain pressure treshold measurements unit: kg/m2 Higher scores mean better outcome

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

  3. Fibromiyalgia Fatigue Scale Questionnaire

    min-max scores:0-72 measures disability Higher scores mean worse outcome

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

  4. Fibromiyalgia Impact Questionnaire

    measures disability level of patients with Fibromyalgia min-max scores: 0-100 Higher scores mean worse outcome

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks"

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Epworth Sleepness Scale Questionnaire

    measures sleep quality min-max scores: 0-24 score between 16-24 on this scale is considered increased daytime sleepiness

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

  2. Back Depression Inventory

    measures depression level min-max values: 0-63 Higher scores mean worse outcome

    Measured: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fibromyalgia, Primary, run by Haydarpasa Numune Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 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 19 Sep 2024. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

Visual Analoge Scale (time frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 12 weeks). The study lists 4 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 19 Sep 2024.
