NCT01137214

Brief Summary

The purpose of the project is:

  1. 1.to determine the incidence of complex sleep apnea
  2. 2.to determine what percentage of cases will resolve over time with therapy with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure
  3. 3.Determine whether there is any difference in outcome, in those with persistent complex sleep apnea on CPAP, between those treated with CPAP or adaptive servo-ventilation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Resolution of sleep apnea

    As measured by the apnea-hyponea index

    24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of life

    24 weeks

Study Arms (2)

CPAP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure

Device: Non-invasive positive pressure ventilator

Adaptive Servo-Ventilator

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Non-invasive positive pressure ventilator that applies a constant expiratory pressure, as well as a variable inspiratory pressure.

Device: Non-invasive positive pressure ventilator

Interventions

All patients will initially be treated with CPAP for 12 weeks as part of usual clinical treatment for sleep apnea. A sleep study will be conducted after this and prior to randomization into the study. If this repeat sleep study demonstrates persistent central sleep apnea, patients will be randomized into 2 study groups. Group 1 - CPAP for 24 weeks. Group 2 - first 12 weeks CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. Next 12 weeks - (ASV) Adaptive Servo ventilation. If the treatment is not working well at 12 weeks the participant/patients have the option of switching to the alternate treatment. Patients will be notified if they are to be switched to ASV. Participants will be asked to fill in the Epworth Sleepiness Score Questionnaire and Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index form at 12 and 24 weeks.
