About this study

Official title: Prevalence and Dynamics of Sleep-Disordered Breathing (SDB) in Patients With Severe Valvular Regurgitation and High Surgical Risk Undergoing Minimally Invasive Clip Procedure

In a prospective observational study, the investigators investigate the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in patients with severe valvular regurgitation and the effect of using the minimal invasive Clip technique on sleep disordered breathing.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to analyze the prevalance of sleep disordered breathing in patients with severe valvular regurgitation and the impact of a therapy with the minimal-invasive Clip technique.

Therefore, the investigators want to include consecutive patients with unknown sleep-associated respiratory distress syndrome and, in addition, as a study-specific achievement, the investigators want to obtain the quality of life and specific symptoms of the patients by using established questionnaires. After three month of post-interventional care, the patients will get a post-interventional check-up in our cardiological outpatient clinic, where the course of sleep-associated respiratory distress syndrome and the actual quality of life and specific symptoms will be documented by using a cardiorespiratory polygraphy and the same questionnaires.

The entire hospital stay, including possible post-interventional complications, will be documented for this study from the patients' medical records. The routine examinations (laboratory values, ECG, 6-minute walk test, pulmonary function examinations, spiroergometry, transthoracic / -oesophageal echocardiography, etc.) shall also be recorded in the database of this study.

The plan is to include 100 evaluable patients with complete follow-up and the associated test results. For this purpose, a screening of 150 patients is expected to be required.

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Post-interventional changes in daytime sleepiness with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional changes in daytime sleepiness with and without sleep disordered breathing measured by the Epworth Sleepinss Scale (ESS) (From 0 to 24 point-scale; A number in the 0-9 range is considered to be normal while a number in the 10-24 range indicates severe daytime sleepiness)

    Measured: 3 month

  2. Post-interventional survey of patient health with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional survey of patient health with and without sleep disordered breathing measured by the Short Form (36) Health Survey (SF-36).

    SF-36 consists of eight scaled score (Vitality, physical functioning, bodily pain, general health perceptions, physical role functioning, emotional role functioning, social role functioning and mental health). Total range from 0 to 100 points (from worst to best)

    Measured: 3 month

  3. Post-interventional assesment of Symptoms, function and quallity of life with and without sleep disordered breathing by patients with heart failure

    Post-interventional assesment of Symptoms, function and quallity of life with and without sleep disordered breathing by patients with heart failure using the Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-12) that hat quantifies physical function, symptoms (frequency, severity and recent change), social function, self-efficacy and knowledge, and quality of life. Total range is from 0 to 100 points. 0 denotes the worst and 100 the best possible health status

    Measured: 3 month

  4. Post-interventional measurement of the adverse effects of heart failure on patient's life with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional measurement of the adverse effects of heart failure on patient's life with and without sleep disordered breathing using the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire. It provides a total score range 0-105, from best to worst

    Measured: 3 month

  5. Post-interventional assessment of the sleep quality with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional assessment of the sleep quality with and without sleep disordered breathing using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) (From 0 (worst) to 21 (best))

    Measured: 3 month

  6. Post-interventional changes in generic health status. with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional changes in generic health status. with and without sleep disordered breathing using the EQ-5D questionnaire (grade ranging from 0, the worst possible health status, to 100 ,the best possible health status

    Measured: 3 month

  7. Post-interventional changes aerobic capacity and endurance with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional changes on aerobic capacity and endurance with and without sleep disordered breathing using the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (vO2max in milliliter per minute per kilogram

    Measured: 3 month

  8. Post-interventional changes functional capacity of cardiopulmonary and musculoskeletal system with and without sleep disordered breathing

    Post-interventional changes on aerobic capacity and endurance with and without sleep disordered breathing using the six minutes walk test (in meters)

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?

Prevalance of Sleep disordered breathing in Patiens with severe valvular regurgitation (time frame: 3 month). The study lists 11 primary outcomes in all. 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 6 Mar 2023.
