Alternative of Treatment in Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome

September 22, 2017 updated by: Juan F. Masa, Sociedad Española de Neumología y Cirugía Torácica

Mid-and Long-term Efficacy of Ventilation Non-invasive and Continuos Positive Airway Pressure in Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome

Primary objectives: evaluate the efficacy of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) treatment versus continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and life style modification treatment in Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS), with PCO2 (first phase) and days of hospitalization (second phase) analyzed as a primary variables and percentage of dropouts for medical reasons and mortality as operative variables. As secondary variables: Measure functional and clinical improvement during sleep and wakefulness, quality of life, echocardiography and the incidence and blood pressure and evolution of cardiovascular events. Objectives secondaries:role of apneogenic sleep events on molecular inflammation, endothelial damage and the genesis of diurnal hypercapnia. Methods:prospective, randomized controlled trial. Patients with OHS will be divided initially into two groups based on their apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) score, >=30 and < 30, using conventional polysomnography. The AHI >=30 group will be randomized to CPAP, NIV or life style modification treatments. The AHI <=30 groups will be randomized to NIV or life style modification treatments. Treatment efficacy at the medium- and long-term will be analyzed by comparing groups. The role of apneic events and leptin in the genesis of daytime alveolar hypoventilation will be analyzed by comparing the daytime PCO2/AHI coefficient between responders and non-responders to CPAP treatment, and the evolution of leptin levels in the four branches of the study. The role of apneic events in metabolic and biochemical alterations and endothelial dysfunction will be analyzed by comparing basal and post-treatment levels of related substances between groups, with and without significant AHI.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The AHI >=30 group will be analyzed to CPAP, NIV or life style modification treatments for two mouths.Once an evaluation is done during this period, the life style modification treatment will be randomized with the NIV/CPAP treatment for a continuation of three years.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
440

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

15 years to 80 years (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age between 15 and 80 years old.
  • Absence of moderate or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • Absence of neuromuscular, chest wall or metabolic disease which cause daytime hypercapnia.
  • Absence of narcolepsy or restless legs syndrome
  • Exceed correctly treatment of at least 30 minutes with CPAP/NIV at wakefulness.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Psychophysical incapacity to answer questionnaires.
  • Patients who are not able to be evaluated by means of quality of life questionnaires for suffering restrictive chronic disease previously diagnosed (neoplasy, chronic pain of any origin, renal failure, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and any other restrictive chronic disease).
  • Subjects with important chronic nasal obstruction that prevents from using CPAP/NIV.
  • Informed consent not obtained.
