Trial summary

A validation study has been designed to assess the performance of a home sleep test device, TipTraQ, for screening sleep apnea. The study involves participants wearing the TipTraQ device on their fingertip during a traditional sleep test, known as polysomnography (PSG), conducted in a sleep center. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Validation of a Medical-grade Wearable Device with Interpretable Artificial Intelligence System for the Obstructive Sleep Apnea-hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) Screening

A validation study has been designed to assess the performance of a home sleep test device, TipTraQ, for screening sleep apnea. The study involves participants wearing the TipTraQ device on their fingertip during a traditional sleep test, known as polysomnography (PSG), conducted in a sleep center. The performance of the device will then be evaluated by comparing the results from the TipTraQ system with those from the traditional sleep test.

Read the detailed description

This clinical study is designed to validate TipTraQ, a new sleep screening device developed by PranaQ, for the detection of Sleep Breathing Disorders (SBD), including obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). Given the high prevalence of undiagnosed OSAHS and the cumbersome nature of traditional polysomnography (PSG) - which involves multiple sensors and specialist interpretation - there is a pressing need for more accessible screening tools. TipTraQ aims to meet this need through a wearable device that utilizes photoplethysmography (PPG) and an accelerometer to monitor essential physiological parameters during sleep. This information is then analyzed by an interpretable artificial intelligence (AI) system to estimate key indicators of sleep health such as SpO2, total sleep time (TST), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and apnea-hypopnea index (AHI).

The study is open-label and non-randomized, planning to recruit 125 subjects. Participants will use the TipTraQ device alongside a companion mobile app, with data analysis supported by AI technology hosted on a cloud server. The primary goal is to assess the accuracy of the TipTraQ system by comparing its output against the gold standard PSG annotations made by sleep experts.

This initiative represents a significant step towards simplifying and democratizing the screening process for sleep disorders, potentially enabling early detection and treatment for a larger segment of the population, thus mitigating personal health risks and broader societal impacts of undiagnosed SBD.

What is being measured

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

  1. Apnea Hypopnea Index(AHI)

    The combined average number of apneas and hypopneas that occur per hour of sleep

    Measured: From the start of a single polysomnography study to the end of the recording.

  2. Oxygen Desaturation Index(ODI)

    Average desaturation episodes with a decrease in the oxygen saturation of ≥4% or 3% per hour

    Measured: From the start of a single polysomnography study to the end of the recording.

  3. Total Sleep Time(TST)

    Total sleep time during the polysomnography (PSG)

    Measured: From the start of a single polysomnography study to the end of the recording.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Obstructive Sleep Apnea, run by PranaQ Pte. Ltd. at 1 site in United States.

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 8 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 22 Oct 2024. 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 United States. 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?

Apnea Hypopnea Index(AHI) (time frame: From the start of a single polysomnography study to the end of the recording.). The study lists 3 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 22 Oct 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
