NCT01130090

Brief Summary

In patients under bi-level pressure support ventilation for obesity hypoventilation syndrome, this study aims to determine if it is better, in terms of efficacy and patient-ventilator synchronisation to use

  • Spontaneous mode (S)
  • Spontaneous/Timed mode (ST) with an intermediate back-up rate, slightly below the respiratory rate of the patient
  • Timed mode (T), with a ventilator respiratory rate above that of the patient. This issue has to our knowledge only been marginally studied without any consensus.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Sleep structure

    Quantification of quality of sleep assessed by polysomnography (sleep stages, arousals)

    Night 1

  • Sleep structure

    Quantification of quality of sleep assessed by polysomnography (sleep stages, arousals)

    Night 2

  • Sleep structure

    Quantification of quality of sleep assessed by polysomnography (sleep stages, arousals)

    Night 3

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Transcutaneous capnography (PtcCO2)

    Night 1

  • Transcutaneous capnography (PtcCO2)

    Night 2

  • Transcutaneous capnography (PtcCO2)

    Night 3

  • Correlation between microarousal index and autonomic arousal index

    Night 1

  • Correlation between microarousal index and autonomic arousal index

    Night 2

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Interventions

3 consecutive nights in randomized order, in either "S" (Spontaneous) mode, "ST" (Spontaneous/Timed) mode with a back-up rate under spontaneous respiratory rate of the patient, or in "ST" (Spontaneous/Timed) mode with a back-up rate at least 2 cycles/minute above spontaneous nocturnal respiratory rate. Each assessment will include complete polysomnographic recording (sleep study) as well as SpO2, PtcCO2, pneumotachograph (flow), mask pressure, quantitative assessment of patient-ventilator synchronisation, central or obstructive apnea and hypopnea, data of built-in software, and rating of patient comfort
