Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this trial is to investigate the mechanisms leading to weight gain during CPAP treatment for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).


Clinical Trial Description

Obesity and obstructive sleep apnea share a bidirectional relationship. While obesity is a major risk factor for OSA, OSA may contribute to weight gain. Recent evidence suggests that OSA treatment is associated with weight gain. The mechanisms involved in weight gain after OSA treatment are not known. The purpose of this study is to determine the mechanisms of weight gain during CPAP treatment for severe OSA leads. The investigators hypothesis is that CPAP leads to a decrease in energy expenditure and prevents the elimination of extracellular fluid that is accumulated during the day. In order to test this hypothesis, 20 patients with severe OSA aged between 50 and 80 years old, under regular treatment with CPAP, will be invited to participate. Using a cross-over design, the investigators will perform bioelectric impedance 5 times over 24 hours in order to assess the circadian effect of fluid accumulation in two different conditions: during CPAP treatment and 7 days after CPAP withdrawal. A full polysomnography will be performed during CPAP withdrawal to confirm severe OSA and during CPAP treatment to confirm adequate control of respiratory events. In addition, basal metabolic rate, hematocrit, serum BNP, urinary sodium, creatinine and osmolality will be determined in the morning during the CPAP and CPAP withdrawal periods. ;
