Trial summary

To date, no published systematic review and meta-analysis has compared AHI-CPAPflow and AHI-PSGgold. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to compare published data for AHI-PSGgold and AHI-CPAPflow in patients treated by CPAP. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients treated with a CPAP-device and synchronous polysomnography.

Who may be able to join

  • All (full scientific) study designs and publication types written in English and reporting Bland-Altman test results (or other tests suggesting the presence of the required data) between simultaneous, paired, polysomnography (PSG)-derived AND Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)-derived data describing sleep disordered breathing.

Who cannot join

  • Duplicates
  • Does not refer to a full scientific article (e.g. case reports are excluded).
  • Meta-analysis
  • Paediatric populations (populations <18 years are excluded).
  • Absence of appropriate paired results: synchronized polysomnography (PSG)-derived AND Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)-derived data must be reported for ≥1 of the following measures: Apnoea-Hypopnoea-Indices (AHI), Apnoea-Indices (AI), Hypopnoea-Indices(HI), respiratory disturbance index (RDI), respiratory effort related arousals (RERA).
  • Absence of appropriate test comparing paired results: the study must use ≥1 of the fol-lowing tests to compare the previously mentioned PSG-vs-CPAP-derived data: a bland-altman or correlation test, other conformity tests, tests of differences in centrality.

  • Inappropriate PSG scoring 1: PSG-derived variables must be coded following the American Academy of Sleep Medicine 2007 (or more recent) guidelines.

About this study

Official title: Apnoea-Hypopnoea-Indices Determined Via Continuous Posi-tive Airway Pressure (AHI-CPAPflow) Versus Those Determined by Polysomnography (AHI-PSGgold): a Protocol for a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

To date, no published systematic review and meta-analysis has compared AHI-CPAPflow and AHI-PSGgold. Therefore, the primary objective of this study is to compare published data for AHI-PSGgold and AHI-CPAPflow in patients treated by CPAP.

Read the detailed description

The secondary objectives are to evaluate, in a manner similar to the primary objective, data for apnoea indices (AI), hypopnoea indices (HI), respiratory disturbance indices (RDI) and respiratory effort related arousals (RERAs) and to perform subgroup analyses focusing on the inclusion/exclusion of central apnoea patients, BMI levels, CPAP device brands, pressure titration modes, use of a predetermined and fixed pressure level or not, and the impact of a 4%-PSG desaturation criteria versus 3%-PSG on index accuracy.

What is being measured

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

  1. The mean difference between AHI-CPAPflow and AHI-PSGgold

    AHI-CPAPflow = Apnoea-Hypopnoea-Indices Determined Via Continuous Positive Airway Pressure AHI-PSGgold = Apnoea-Hypopnoea-Indices Determined by Polysomnography

    Measured: Day 0

  2. The standard deviation for the mean difference between AHI-CPAPflow and AHI-PSGgold

    Measured: Day 0

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. The mean difference between AI-CPAPflow and AI-PSGgold

    AI-CPAPflow = Apnoea--Indices Determined Via Continuous Positive Airway Pressure AI-PSGgold = Apnoea--Indices Determined by Polysomnography

    Measured: Day 0

  2. The standard deviation for the mean difference between AI-CPAPflow and AI-PSGgold

    Measured: Day 0

  3. The mean difference between HI-CPAPflow and HI-PSGgold

    HI-CPAPflow = Hypopnoea--Indices Determined Via Continuous Positive Airway Pressure HI-PSGgold = Hypopnoea--Indices Determined by Polysomnography

    Measured: Day 0

  4. The standard deviation for the mean difference between HI-CPAPflow and HI-PSGgold

    Measured: Day 0

  5. The mean difference between RDI-CPAPflow and RDI-PSGgold

    RDI-CPAPflow = Respiratory Disturbance Indices Determined Via Continuous Positive Airway Pressure RDI-PSGgold = Respiratory Disturbance Indices Determined by Polysomnography

    Measured: Day 0

  6. The standard deviation for the mean difference between RDI-CPAPflow and RDI-PSGgold

    Measured: Day 0

  7. The mean difference between RERA-CPAPflow and RERA-PSGgold

    RERA-CPAPflow = Respiratory Effort Related Arousals Determined Via Continuous Positive Airway Pressure RERA-PSGgold = Respiratory Effort Related Arousals Determined by Polysomnography

    Measured: Day 0

  8. The standard deviation for the mean difference between RERA-CPAPflow and RERA-PSGgold

    Measured: Day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Sleep Apnea Syndromes, run by University Hospital, Montpellier 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 1 inclusion and 10 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 Oct 2021. 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?

The mean difference between AHI-CPAPflow and AHI-PSGgold (time frame: Day 0). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT04526366, 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 19 Oct 2021.
