About this study

Official title: Impact of the Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Treatment and Ventricular Function in Heart Failure Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery or Other Coronary Reperfusion

The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) treatment in heart failure patients following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or other coronary reperfusion.

Read the detailed description

This clinical trial is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

The first objective is to evaluate the influence of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment for OSAS on the ventricular function improvement in heart failure patients, in comparison with OSA patients treated with sham CPAP. This treatment will be instaurated just after the coronary reperfusion surgery

Secondary objectives :

  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on the endothelial function
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on systemic inflammation
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on oxidative stress,
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on insulin resistance, after the coronary reperfusion surgery, in comparison with OSA patients treated with sham CPAP and non apneic control patients, with heart failure.
  • Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular reactivity and atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected during 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 participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CPAP treatmentProcedure or surgery

    This device consists in a nasal continuous positive airway pressure. It will be applied just after CABG and for 3 months for OSA/CPAP patients group.

  • Sham CPAP treatmentOther

    This device consists in a sham continuous positive airway pressure. It will be applied just after CABG and for 3 months for OSA/sham CPAP patients group.

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 (LVEF)) improvement conferred by CPAP post-operative treatment

    Measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction by a cardiac ultrasonography

    Measured: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Assessment of CPAP effect on the endothelial function, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patient with heart failure and OSAS.

    Measurement of peripheral arterial tone

    Measured: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

  2. Assessment of CPAP effect on the endothelial function, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patient with heart failure and OSAS.

    Measurement of pulse wave velocity

    Measured: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

  3. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected only during CABG surgery.

    By immunological and histological analysis of mammary vessels

    Measured: Sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

  4. 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

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

    By immunological and histological analysis of abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue

    Measured: Sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

  6. Assessment of CPAP effect on the systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, the insulin resistance, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patients with heart failure and OSAS.

    Measurement of inflammatory and oxidative serum markers

    Measured: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CPAP treatment in people with Heart Failure and Arteriosclerosis of Coronary Artery Bypass Graft or Other Coronary Reperfusion, 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 2 inclusion and 7 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 3 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 (LVEF)) improvement conferred by CPAP post-operative treatment (time frame: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 3 Feb 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
