About this study

Official title: Central Sleep Apneas Syndrome and Ventricular Function in Patients With Heart Failure, After Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery or Other Coronary Reperfusion

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.

Read the detailed description

This clinical trial is a pilot study, on patients with central sleep apneas syndrome and heart failure, undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery or other coronary reperfusion, and then randomized for the adaptive servo-ventilation treatment application or not after surgery.

The first objective is to evaluate the effect of an early treatment of sleep-disordered breathing by adaptive servo-ventilation in heart failure patient, in terms of ventricular recovery (ejection fraction improvement). This treatment will be instaurated just after coronary artery bypass graft surgery or other coronary reperfusion.

Secondary objectives :

  • Assessment of adaptive servo-ventilation effect on the endothelial function, the systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, the insulin resistance, after the surgery in comparison with non treated patient with heart failure and central sleep apneas.
  • Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular reactivity and atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected only during coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
  • Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin sensitivity on abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue collected during surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percent of ventricular function recovery (left ventricular ejection fraction) improvement conferred by an adaptive servo-ventilation post-operative treatment

    Measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction by a cardiac ultrasonography

    Measured: after 6 months of adaptive servo-ventilation post-operative treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Assessment of adaptive servo-ventilation effect on the endothelial function, after the surgery in comparison with non treated patient with heart failure and central sleep apneas.

    Measurement of peripheral arterial tone

    Measured: After 6 months of adaptive servo-sentilation post-operative treatment

  2. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected during coronary artery bypass surgery.

    By immunological and histological analysis of mammary vessels

    Measured: sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

  3. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin sensitivity of the abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue collected during surgery.

    Measuring inflammatory and oxidative adipose markers

    Measured: sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

  4. Assessment of adaptive servo-ventilation effect on the systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, the insulin resistance, after the surgery in comparison with non treated patient with heart failure and central sleep apneas.

    Measurement of inflammatory and oxidative serum markers

    Measured: After 6 months of adaptive servo-sentilation post-operative treatment

  5. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular reactivity of mammary vessels collected during surgery.

    By vascular reactivity study of mammary vessels

    Measured: sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

  6. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue structure collected during surgery.

    By immunological and histological analysis of abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue

    Measured: sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Adaptive servo-ventilation post-operative treatment for 6 months in people with Central Sleep Apneas Syndrome and Heart Failure, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 2 Feb 2017. 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 France. 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?

Percent of ventricular function recovery (left ventricular ejection fraction) improvement conferred by an adaptive servo-ventilation post-operative treatment (time frame: after 6 months of adaptive servo-ventilation post-operative treatment). 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 NCT01741337, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 2 Feb 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
