Trial summary

This prospective study aims to evaluate a new medical screening method to detect and discriminate sleep apnea-hypopnea events. A new device called ApneaBand will be tested to propose a new screening method facilitating the diagnosis and monitoring of the sleep apnea syndrom, still underdiagnosed. Read more about this study

About this study

This prospective study aims to evaluate a new medical screening method to detect and discriminate sleep apnea-hypopnea events. A new device called ApneaBand will be tested to propose a new screening method facilitating the diagnosis and monitoring of the sleep apnea syndrom, still underdiagnosed. This device will be tested in comparison with polysomnography (PSG), the gold standard reference method of sleep apnea diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to dertermine the performance of the ApneaBand, a new non-intrusive and portable device, in detecting sleep apnea, in comparison with PSG.

40 apneic and non apneic subjects will wear the ApneaBand recording the different sleep stages and the occurency of apnea-hypopnea sleep events through four sensors including oximetry (oxygen saturation), photoplethysmography (pulse wave), electrodermal activity and tri-axial accelerometer (movements).

Inclusion visit will be proceeded at the University Hospital Grenoble-Alpes ; polysomnography and mesures by the ApneaBand will be proceeded at the patient's home by IC@dom. Patients will be equiped with PSG + ApneaBand during the first night and with ApneaBand only the second night.

What participants receive

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

  • ApneaBandDevice

    Mesure of oxygen saturation (oximetry), pulse wave (photoplethysmography), electrodermal activity and movements (tri-axial accelerometer)

What is being measured

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

  1. Performance of the ApneaBand to detect sleep apnea

    Performance of the ApneaBand device in detecting moderate to severe sleep apnea (defined by an Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) ≥ 15 events/hour), in comparison with PSG

    Measured: 3 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Performance of the ApneaBand to mesure the apnea severity

    Performance of the ApneaBand device in detecting sleep apnea according to its severity (2 pre-specified thresholds of AHI: > 5 and ≥ 30), in comparison with PSG

    Measured: 3 days

  2. External reproductibility of AHI measurement by the ApneaBand

    Reproducibility between AHI from polysomnography and ApneaBand

    Measured: 3 days

  3. Internal reproductibility of AHI measurement by the ApneaBand

    Reproducibility between different AHI mesures from ApneaBand

    Measured: 3 days

  4. ApneaBand algorith validation for AHI measurement

    External validation of the ApneaBand algorithm

    Measured: 3 days

  5. Sleep stage detection by ApneaBand

    To assess if electrodermal activity assessed by the ApneaBand during sleep is able to differerenciate the different sleep stages

    Measured: 3 days

  6. Skin tone variability

    To asses if oxygen saturation assessed by the ApneaBand could be performed in persons with dark skin tones

    Measured: 3 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, 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 5 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 4 Jan 2019. 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?

Performance of the ApneaBand to detect sleep apnea (time frame: 3 days). 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 4 Jan 2019.
