NCT01175031

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate diagnostic agreement and determine the accuracy of the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device compared to simultaneous, attended clinical polysomnography (PSG) in identifying breathing events in participants previously diagnosed with complex sleep apnea (CompSAS), complex sleep apnea with Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR), or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Breathing Events Identified by the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Device Compared to a Simultaneous Polysomnography

    The following breathing events: RERAs, central apneas, periodic breathing, obstructive apneas, and hypopneas in patients previously diagnosed with CompSAS or OSA detected by simultaneous Polysomnography and REMstar Auto with A-Flex were compared.

    During a single night of polysomnography lasting an average of 8 hours

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Device Detected Apneas as Detected by Philips Respironics (PR) System One

    During a single night of polysomnography lasting an average of 8 hours

  • Device-Detected Obstructed Airway Apnea Agreement

    During a single night of polysomnography lasting an average of 8 hours

  • Device-Detected Clear Airway Apnea Agreement

    During a single night of polysomnography lasting an average of 8 hours

Study Arms (2)

REMstar Auto with A-Flex

EXPERIMENTAL

Manipulation of positive airway pressure (PAP) will occur throughout the night to induce breaking events. PAP will be set to the participant's prescribed pressure, increased until breathing events are induced, and then returned to the prescribed pressure. This cyclic pattern will continue throughout the night. Events will be measured with REMstar Auto with A-Flex.

Other: Manipulation of Positive Airway Pressure (PAP)

Manually Scored Polysomnography (PSG)

OTHER

Manipulation of positive airway pressure (PAP) will occur throughout the night to induce breaking events. PAP will be set to the participant's prescribed pressure, increased until breathing events are induced, and then returned to the prescribed pressure. This cyclic pattern will continue throughout the night. Events will be Manually Scored Polysomnography (PSG).

Other: Manipulation of Positive Airway Pressure (PAP)

Interventions

Positive airway pressure (PAP) will be manipulated throughout the night to induce breathing events. PAP will be set to the participant's prescribed pressure, increased until breathing events are induced , and then returned to the prescribed pressure. This cyclic pattern will continue throughout the night.

Eligibility Criteria

Age21 Years - 80 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Males and females, ages 21-80.
  • Able and willing to provide written informed consent.
  • Diagnosis of complex sleep apnea (CompSAS) or Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) within one year of study participation.
  • For participants with CompSAS: (a) Diagnostic PSG with an Apnea-Hyopnea Index (AHI) greater than or equal to 10 events/hour and central apnea index (CAI) greater than or equal to 5 events/hour of sleep or (b) PAP titration with a CAI greater than or equal to 5 events/hour of sleep.
  • For participants with OSA, a diagnostic PSG with an AHI greater than or equal to 15 events/hour of sleep.
  • Must have had a CPAP titration such that the necessary PAP level to treat the sleep disordered breathing is known.
  • Agreement to undergo a full-night, in-laboratory PSG on CPAP device.

You may not qualify if:

  • Participation in an interventional research study within 30 days of study participation.
  • Pre-menopausal females known to be pregnant or who are sexually active and not using a reliable method of birth control.
  • Surgery of the upper airway, nose, sinus, or middle ear within the last 90 days.
  • Surgery at any time for the treatment of OSA such as uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP).
  • Major medical or psychiatric condition that would interfere with the demands of the study, adherence to positive airway pressure, or the ability to complete the study.
  • Chronic respiratory failure or insufficiency with suspected or known neuromuscular disease, moderate or severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or other pulmonary disorders, or any condition with an elevation of arterial carbon dioxide levels (\> 45 mmHg) while awake.
  • Currently prescribed oxygen therapy.
  • Ventilatory induced barotrauma within 6 months of study participation.
  • Untreated insomnia.
  • Other major medical condition that, in the judgment of the investigator, precludes participation in this study.
