Obstructive Sleep ApneaSTOMPNCT01340781
Screening Tools for Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in Hospitalized Medical Patients
An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by MetroHealth Medical Center at 1 site in United States.
Trial summary
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients admitted to the hospital is likely significantly higher than the general population as hospitalized patients carry a high prevalence of co-morbid conditions, such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, that are commonly associated with OSA.

About this study
Official title: Evaluation of Screening Tools for OSA in Hospitalized Medical Patients: A Validation Study
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients admitted to the hospital is likely significantly higher than the general population as hospitalized patients carry a high prevalence of co-morbid conditions, such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, that are commonly associated with OSA. The true prevalence of OSA in hospitalized patients is not known, though there is limited data suggesting that the rate of OSA in hospitalized patients is indeed high. Two studies have reported on the rate of polysomnographic (PSG) diagnosis of OSA in patients referred for OSA evaluation while in-hospital. These studies reported frequencies of 77% (in a retrospective study of 100 patients) and 88-100% (in an observational study of 250 patients). Similarly, 2 studies evaluated the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in patients admitted with acutely decompensated heart failure, finding frequencies of sleep apnea in 97% (prospective study of 29 patients studied with PSG) and 75% (prospective study of 395 consecutive patients studied with portable monitors). However, all of these studies are limited by either study design (retrospective), small numbers, limited channel portable monitoring, or evaluations of highly select patient populations. Furthermore, none of these studies examined screening tools that may help to identify which patients are at risk for OSA and thus might require the more extensive and expensive objective testing.
This study will test the following hypotheses:

- The prevalence of OSA in unselected hospitalized medical patients will be more than 50% of the study population. Specific Aim 1: To determine the prevalence of OSA in a group of unselected hospitalized medical patients by a combination of sleep symptoms and PSG performed while in-hospital.
- Screening tools will be able to accurately identify OSA in hospitalized medical patients.
Specific Aim 2: To determine the accuracy of different screening questionnaires for the diagnosis of OSA in hospitalized medical patients by comparing the questionnaire results to that of a PSG performed while in-hospital.

PolysomnogramProcedure or surgery
An attended polysomnogram will be conducted in the subjects room during an in patient hospital stay
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Hospitalized medical patients | Adult age 18-65 years old admitted to the general medical floors at MetroHealth Medical Center who are expected to stay a minimum of 48 hours.
Potential subjects cannot have a known diagnosis of OSA, a tracheostomy, respiratory failure requiring noninvasive ventilation, currently pre or post surgical intervention, or clinically unstable patients with plans for transfer to a higher acuity of care or transferred from intensive care. Receives: Procedure: Polysomnogram |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
To determine the prevalence of OSA in a group of unselected hospitalized medical patients by a combination of sleep symptoms and PSG performed while in-hospital.
Subjects will complete an overnight polysomnogram during an inpatient admission. Data from the PSG will be used to determine if the subject has sleep apnea.
Measured: 1 year
Secondary outcomes (1)
To determine the accuracy of different screening questionnaires for the diagnosis of OSA in hospitalized medical patients by comparing the questionnaire results to that of a PSG performed while in-hospital.
Subjects will complete 4 questionnaires (Berlin, STOP, STOP-BANG, SACS) used to assess risk for OSA prior to polysomnogram testing. The PSG data will be compared to the questionnaire results to determine the validity of the screening questionnaires.
Measured: 1 year

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients admitted to the hospital is likely significantly higher than the general population as hospitalized patients carry a high prevalence of co-morbid conditions, such as diabetes and cardiovascular diseases, that are commonly associated with OSA. The true prevalence of OSA in hospitalized patients is not known, though there is limited data suggesting that the rate of OSA in hospitalized patients is indeed high. Two studies have reported on the rate of polysomnographic (PSG) diagnosis of OSA in patients referred for OSA evaluation while in-hospital. These studies reported frequencies of 77% (in a retrospective study of 100 patients) and 88-100% (in an observational study of 250 patients). Similarly, 2 studies evaluated the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in patients admitted with acutely decompensated heart failure, finding frequencies of sleep apnea in 97% (prospective study of 29 patients studied with PSG) and 75% (prospective study of 395 consecutive patients studied with portable monitors).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by MetroHealth Medical Center at 1 site in United States.
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 5 inclusion and 11 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 Jul 2013. 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 United States. 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?
To determine the prevalence of OSA in a group of unselected hospitalized medical patients by a combination of sleep symptoms and PSG performed while in-hospital. (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01340781, which also lists 23 linked publications.
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 Jul 2013.
