Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of Somnarus diagnostic technology for diagnosis of sleep apnea in human subjects. This includes evaluation of Somnarus technology in Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and Central Sleep Apnea (CSA), including Cheyne - Stokes respiration (CSR).
The study objective is to collect heart rate, respiration rate and motion data of patients admitted to sleep lab and to determine the accuracy level of the EarlySense system vs. the monitors used in sleep lab (e.g., Polysomnography, respiratory belts, ECG, etc..) . Data regarding sleep condition, scoring and quality of sleep and in and out of bed status, patient turns will also be collected and compared to data collected by EarlySense contactless monitor. Different patient population will be monitored including obese, morbidly obese, patients with or without obstructive/central apnea, patients with or without arrhythmia as well as healthy population who arrive to sleep lab for general evaluation will be monitored
The purpose of FACE study is to provide in routine practice complementary long-term data on the mortality and morbidity of Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) patients with Central Sleep Apnea eligible for Adaptative Servo-Ventilation (ASV) treatment (PaceWave, AutoSet CS; ResMed).
The primary purpose of this prospective, multicenter, randomized trial is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of therapy delivered by the remedē® system in subjects with moderate to severe central sleep apnea and optimal medical management, compared to outcomes in randomized control subjects receiving optimal medical management and implanted but inactive remedē® systems.
The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of an early treatment of sleep-disordered breathing by adaptive servo-ventilation in heart failure patient following coronary artery bypass graft surgery or other coronary reperfusion.
40% of patients with Sleep Disorder Breathing (SDB) appearing during the acute phase of stroke show a respiratory pattern characterized by central apnoeas and/or periodic breathing. Clinical studies conducted in patients with hearth failure and central apnoeas have demonstrated the pathogenetic central role of hypersensitivity of central and peripheral chemoreceptors in association with baroreflex hypersensitivity, expression of hyperactivity of sympathetic nervous system. The joint study of chemoreflexes and baroreflexes in patients with central apneas during the acute and subacute phase of ischemic stroke represents, to our knowledge, a novelty in literature, that should supply useful elements to clarify the pathogenesis and the clinical and prognostic significance of these disorders. Investigators expect a difference in the analysis of the baroreflexes and chemoreflexes in patients with ischemic stroke/transient ischemic attack (TIA) and central apnoeas than patients with ischemic stroke not accompanied by respiratory problems and compared with healthy controls.
Comparing two BiPAP autoSV devices in participants with complex sleep apnea and determining if the new device will treat those participants no worse than when compared to its predecessor device.
Background: Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS) is a rare disorder of automatic control of breathing. This disease can manifest as early as birth. Patients with this disease have a fundamental lack of central drive breathing. They do not mount any responses to hypoxia or hypercapnia during sleep or wakefulness. This places them at risk of injury or death whenever they are not consciously breathing. They require lifelong assisted ventilation while sleeping, and some while awake. Progesterone is a known respiratory stimulant in normal individuals, and it has been shown in one study of 2 patients that this drug may improve CO2 responsiveness in patients with CCHS. However, this observation requires confirmation. Hypothesis: Exogenous progesterone (in oral contraception pills) will improve CO2 responsivity by hyperoxic hypercapnic ventilatory response testing, hypoxic responsivity using 5-breath nitrogen breathing, hyperoxic ventilatory response while breathing 100% oxygen, and improve spontaneous ventilation during sleep in CCHS females >15-years of age. The progesterone will also depress ventilatory response using a hyperoxia test. Study Methodology: Baseline measures of CO2 and oxygen responsivity, and spontaneous ventilation during sleep, will be performed at baseline and after 3-weeks of taking a progesterone containing oral contraceptive agent. CO2 responsivity will be measured using a hyperoxic hypercapnic ventilatory response test. Hypoxic responsivity will be measured using a 5-breath 100% nitrogen breathing test. Hyperoxic responsivity will be measured by having subjects breathe 100% oxygen for 2-minutes. Subjects will perform an overnight polysomnogram to assess adequacy of gas exchange during spontaneous breathing while asleep. A progesterone containing oral contraception pill will then be given for 3-weeks, and the above measures repeated. Serum progesterone will be measured at baseline and at the time of study.
Prospective, randomized, blinded, cross-over study assessing the effectiveness of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) in treating patients who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) complicated by central sleep apnea (CSA) due to the chronic use of opioid medications
Sleep disordered breathing, especially central sleep apnea, is common in patients with chronic heart failure. Heart valve replacement could have some effect on central sleep apnea. The aim of the study is to investigate effect of heart valve replacement on Cheyne-Stokes respiration in patients with rheumatic heart disease.
