NPPV on Inflammatory Markers and Sleep in Severe Obese Patients With Metabolic Syndrome Undergone to Bariatric Surgery

June 13, 2018 updated by: Luis Vicente Franco de Oliveira, Centro Universitário de Anapolis

Effects of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation on Inflammatory Markers, Sleep, Pulmonary Function and HRQoL in Severe Obese Patients With Metabolic Syndrome Undergone to Bariatric Surgery. A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Obesity is currently one of the most serious public health problems. Its prevalence is increasing sharply in recent decades, even in developing countries, leading to global epidemiology condition. Metabolic syndrome (MS) consists of an association of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders including central obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension in the same patient. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common clinical condition in more than 60% patients with MS. It is still controversial in the world scientific literature whether treatment of OSA with Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NPPV) in severely obese patients with and without MS is effective. The NPPV effectively reverses hypoxemia in patients with OSA, therefore justified the hypothesis that NPPV will reduce insulin resistance, ghrelin and resistin and raise adiponectin levels in a group of severely obese individuals with and without MS undergoing bariatric surgery. Objectives: To investigate the effects of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation on inflammatory markers, sleep, pulmonary function, BMI reduction and health related quality of life in severe obese patients with and without metabolic syndrome undergone to bariatric surgery.

Detailed Description

Obesity is currently one of the most serious public health problems. Its prevalence is increasing sharply in recent decades, even in developing countries, leading to global epidemiology condition. Metabolic syndrome (MS) consists of an association of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders including central obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension in the same patient. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common clinical condition in more than 60% patients with MS. It is still controversial in the world scientific literature whether treatment of OSA with Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NPPV) in severely obese patients with and without MS is effective. The NPPV effectively reverses hypoxemia in patients with OSA, therefore justified the hypothesis that NPPV will reduce insulin resistance, ghrelin and resistin and raise adiponectin levels in a group of severely obese individuals with and without MS undergoing bariatric surgery. Objectives: To investigate the effects of Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation on inflammatory markers, sleep, pulmonary function, BMI reduction and health related quality of life in severe obese patients with and without metabolic syndrome undergone to bariatric surgery. Methods/Design: Will participate severe obese patients with and without MS, screened from the Bariatric Surgery Service of Santa Casa de Sao Paulo. The inclusion criteria are patients with morbid obesity grade III, with an indication of bariatric surgery and who have agreed to the study, signing an informed consent. Subjects with BMI above 55 kg / m², clinically significant or mental health concerns unstable, an unrealistic target postsurgical weight and/or unrealistic expectations of the surgical treatment will be excluded. Patients will use the NPPV pre and post bariatric surgery. The evaluation protocol will consist of clinical history, vital signs, anthropometric data, clinical analysis of blood and adipose inflammatory markers, lung function tests, polysomnography, sleep scales, cardiovascular risk and quality of life questionnaires. Patients will be evaluated before and after bariatric surgery, 90, 180 and 360 days.

Interventional

Enrollment (Anticipated)

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.

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
