Filter by:The investigators would like to evaluate the variability of oxygen (and PPG) parameters during 7 nights at home. Oxygen (and PPG) parameters will also be evaluated during 1 night at the hospital (diagnostic polysomnography). Based on currently developed algorithms, surrogate apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), cardiovascular status and the variability of these parameters will be evaluated.
This study has been developed in order to demonstrate diagnostic efficacy of the DreamKit device against polysomnography.
In this study the inestigators aim to validate the performance of Sleepiz One+ for sleep apnea detection during routine diagnostic sleep studies. Patients who are prescribed polysomnography study will be asked to participate and undergo a simultaneous sleep recording with radar sensor-based device.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disorder with prevalence rates of at least 4% among the middle-aged male Caucasians and Hong Kong (HK) Chinese populations. It is characterized by repetitive episodes of upper airway obstruction, causing intermittent hypoxia, sleep fragmentation, disabling daytime sleepiness, impaired cognitive function and poor health status. OSAS patients are at increased risks of non-fatal and fatal cardiovascular morbidity and mortality including sudden death, in addition to being more prone to road traffic accidents. However, there is no long term follow up of patients with OSAS on the incidence of cardiovascular disease, compliance on the therapy and the impact of the quality of life. The study is aimed to carry out a prospective observational study assessing the role of OSAS as a possible cause of increased cardiovascular risk and cognitive decline.
The study is aimed to carry out an epidemiology study investigating the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the association with cognitive impairment.
Over the last decades, research in cardiopulmonary resuscitation was primarily focused on uninterrupted chest compressions to restore sufficient circulation. Ventilation during ongoing chest compressions was regarded as potentially deleterious and thus not given any major scientific focus. Current guidelines advise that ventilation be monitored by end-tidal CO2 and emphasize that hyperventilation be avoided. Recent findings from arterial blood gas analyses showed high levels of arterial pCO2, resulting in a frequent occurrence of hypercapnic acidosis, which may be caused by iatrogenic hypoventilation. Ventilation during ongoing chest compressions can be hard to achieve, as nearly every breath may be terminated by simultaneous chest compressions. In case of bag ventilation the applied tidal volumes have not yet been measured und mechanical ventilators so far were not able to ventilate during chest compressions, because pressure limit settings induced termination of inspiration. The aim of this study is to provide patients with the best possible ventilation, even under ongoing chest compressions. Patients are ventilated with a new turbine-driven ventilator (Monnal T60, Air Liquide, France), which can deliver adequate tidal volumes within a very short inspiratory phase due to the inspiratory flow of > 200l/min. Thus, in deviation from the current recommendations, the ventilation rate can be doubled to 20/min, so that inspiration coincides with cardiac massage less often. The study compares effective ventilation volumes applied by two regimes, 10 breaths/min and 20/min.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is characterized by intermittent nocturnal hypoxemia, frequent arousals, fragmented sleep and daytime sleepiness. It has been shown to increase the risk of cardiac and vascular disease through multiple mechanisms including sympathetic hyperactivity, metabolic dysregulation, and activation of oxidative stress and inflammatory pathways. Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness in the working age group, affecting 93 million people worldwide. Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a sight threatening complication and the most common cause of visual loss in patients with diabetes. OSA is frequently associated with diabetes with prevalence ranging from 23 to 86%. However, the relationship between OSA and DME is not well defined. The retina is especially susceptible to hypoxia, being one of the most metabolically active tissues. Many of the same inflammatory mediators have also been found to be elevated in patients with diabetic macular edema, including VEGF, VCAM-1 and IL-6. There has been no previous study examining the biochemical impact of OSA on patients with DME. We aim to explore this relationship by examining the differences in inflammatory markers expressed in patients with DME who have undergone an overnight sleep study, which is considered the gold standard diagnostic tool in OSA.
The primary purpose of the study is to determine whether lemborexant increases the apnea hypopnea index (AHI) on Day 8 of treatment in adult and elderly participants (adults greater than or equal to [>=] 45 to less than [<] 65 years; elderly >=65 to 90 years) with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared with placebo, and using pulse oximetry determine whether lemborexant decreases the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) during total sleep time (TST) on Day 8 of treatment in adult and elderly participants (adults >=45 to <65 years; elderly >=65 to 90 years) with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compared with placebo.
To follow up the progress of chronic complications in T2DM patients who had undergone anthropometric measurements, laboratory testing and standard overnight polysomnography monitor from 2013 to 2018.
This is a randomized, 3-period, placebo-controlled, crossover study to examine the efficacy and safety of AD182 and AD504 versus placebo in patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
