Sleep Disordered Breathing & Cardiopulmonary Disease in Peruvian

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Overall objective: To understand the feasibility of performing a randomized trial using a simple, minimally-invasive postural therapy approach to improve sleep disordered breathing (SDB).

Clinical Trial Description

Specific Aims: - To examine the relative efficacy of postural therapy (a 15-degree wedge mattress) on measures of chronic cardiometabolic stress in high altitude residents. - To determine the tolerability of postural therapy. Primary outcomes, at 4 and 8 weeks: - Mean nocturnal oxyhemoglobin saturation (SPO2) - Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). Secondary outcomes - Markers of hypoxemia exposure: the investigators will evaluate for differences in average hemoglobin and erythropoietin concentrations between intervention groups using t-tests or Wilcoxon rank sum tests, as considered appropriate. If transformations are necessary, the investigators will use Box-Cox power transform to identify the best transformation for the investigators' data. - Markers of metabolic dysfunction: the investigators will evaluate for differences in average Glycated hemoglobin test (HbA1c), homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL), triglycerides, SVEGF-R1 , and soluble Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (SVEGF-1) concentrations between intervention groups using t-tests or Wilcoxon rank sum tests, as appropriate. If transformations are necessary, the investigators will use Box-Cox power transform to identify the best transformation for the investigators' data. - Markers of cardiometabolic stress: the investigators will evaluate for differences in average systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), pulse, and % change in endothelial function (reactive hyperemia index) as assessed by brachial artery reactivity testing (BART) between intervention groups using t-tests or Wilcoxon rank sum tests, as considered appropriate. - Adherence (the average number of nights during the 8-week period that participants slept on the wedge mattress), ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
