NCT01752556

Brief Summary

Primary objectives: The efficacy of the therapeutic decision taken by respiratory polygraphy (RP) against polysomnography (PSG) using the Epworth scale; Secondary Objective:

  1. 1.the cost-effectiveness of diagnosis and therapeutic decision valued using the Epworth Scale and EuroQol 5D.
  2. 2.effectiveness of the therapeutic decision by means of: 1) quality of life tests, 2) adherence and compliance to treatment, 3) blood pressure MAP, 4) biochemistry determinations. Design: prospective, randomized, controlled, open, parallel of non-inferiority. 440 patients will be randomized to diagnose and follow treatment based on the RP or the PSG. The follow-up will last 6 months with 4 assessments. Statistical analysis: We will compare the change in the Epworth scale between both arms of treatment through analysis of covariance. The premise of non-inferiority is -2 at the lower limit of 95% IC. Secondary variables will be analyzed using differences in independent means (or non-parametric equivalent) or Chi2 for dichotomous variables. Cost-effectiveness: costs generated by one and another method will be evaluated against the effectiveness of the primary variable using Bayesian techniques

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Determine the efficacy of diagnosis and therapeutic decision-making evaluated using Epworth sleepiness scale as primary variable in patients managed by home RP and by PSG after six months of follow-up.

    Six months

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • the cost-effectiveness of diagnosis and therapeutic decision valued using the Epworth Scale and EuroQol 5D.

    Six months

Study Arms (2)

Hospital diagnosis

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

diagnosis of Sleep Apnea and therapeutic decision will perform according to polysomnography

Procedure: diagnosis and therapeutic decision

Home diagnosis

EXPERIMENTAL

diagnosis of Sleep Apnea and therapeutic decision will be perform according to home respiratory polygraphy

Procedure: diagnosis and therapeutic decision

Interventions

A conventional polysomnography will be done to perform the diagnosis and therapeutic decision(CPAP or not). Treated and untreated will be followed 6 moths

Hospital diagnosis
