NCT01261377

Brief Summary

Patients with both sleep apnea and COPD have overlap syndrome, but their optimal management is not known. We plan to conduct a randomized trial of of bi-level PAP vs. night time oxygen to asses the impact of intervention on cardiac MRI and biomarkers.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Right ventricular end-diastolic volume

    Six months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Other cardiac hemodynamics parameters (end-systolic volume, ejection fraction, mass index and wall motion of right and left ventricles, coronary blood flow, pulmonary artery pressure and blood flow, etc.)

    Six months

  • Serum inflammatory biomarkers (C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, ICAM-1 and P-selectin)

    Six months

  • Urine catecholamine level

    Six months

  • Flow mediated dilatation of brachial artery

    Six months

  • Pulmonary Function tests

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (3)

Bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

bi-level will be titrated to optimize oxygenation and ventilation.

Device: Bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP)

Nocturnal oxygen

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

oxygen will be provided as per standard of care.

Drug: Oxygen

Continuous positive airway pressure

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The level of CPAP will be titrated to treat OSA. The duration of therapy will be six months.

Device: CPAP

Interventions

The level of BPAP will be titrated to treat OSA as well as hypoxemia and hypercapnia. The duration of therapy will be six months.

Bi-level positive airway pressure (BPAP)
OxygenDRUG

Oxygen will be titrated to keep resting oxygen saturation (as measured by pulse oximeter) more than 88 percent. The duration of therapy will be six months.

Nocturnal oxygen
CPAPDEVICE

The level of CPAP will be titrated to treat OSA. The duration of therapy will be six months.

Continuous positive airway pressure

  • Using lipid-lowering medications, aspirin, oral steroids, steroid-sparing medications or anti-oxidant vitamin supplements.
  • If taking sildenafil or related drugs, unable to stop it within 48 hours of the study visit.
  • Contraindications to stress cardiac testing: acute myocardial infarction within 48 hours, unstable angina not yet stabilized with medical therapy, ongoing chest pain, active broncho-constriction, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, symptomatic severe aortic stenosis, aortic dissection, acute pulmonary embolism or pericarditis.
  • Uncontrolled COPD or acute COPD exacerbation.
  • Known chronic inflammatory diseases like lupus or active infection.
