Natural Sleep and Drug-induced Sleep Endoscopy

July 29, 2018 updated by: Pedro Rodrigues Genta

Comparison Between Natural Sleep Endoscopy and Drug-induced Sleep Endoscopy Among Obstructive Sleep Apnea Subjects Referred for Surgical Treatment

Drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) has been performed worldwide since 1991 to determine the site and configuration of upper airway obstruction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). However, there are no studies comparing DISE to sleep endoscopy during natural sleep. Objectives: To compare DISE to natural sleep endoscopy in OSA patients referred for surgical treatment.

Methods: OSA patients referred to surgical treatment (lateral pharyngoplasty) will be enrolled in this study. Natural sleep endoscopy will be performed at the sleep lab during the night. Propofol induced sleep will be performed at the operating room before surgery. The VOTE (velum, oropharyngeal lateral walls, tongue base and epiglottis) classification will be used to compare site and configuration of collapse between studies. Peak inspiratory flow will also be compared between studies.

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

Drug induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) has been performed worldwide since 1991 to determine the site and configuration of upper airway obstruction in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. However, there are no studies comparing DISE to sleep endoscopy during natural sleep. Objective: to compare natural sleep endoscopy to drug induced sleep with propofol.

The study population will include 28 patients who are candidates to surgical treatment.

Methods Detailed clinical history and physical examination will be performed before natural sleep endoscopy. A 2-hour fast will be required. During both natural sleep and propofol-induced sleep, pharyngeal pressure will be measured using a pressure-tipped catheter (model TC-500XG; Millar).The nasopharynx will be numbed with xylocaine (10%) and oxymetazoline (0.05%), the catheter will be passed through a nasal mask into one nostril, and placed at the tongue base as confirmed by visual inspection of the oropharynx.A 2.8mm pediatric bronchoscope (Olympus) will be passed through the mask and into the other nostril. A nasal mask will be fitted and a heated pneumotachograph with differential pressure transducer connected to the mask will quantify airflow. The endoscope will be located at velopharynx, lateral wall of the pharynx and 2 cm above tongue and epiglottis.The VOTE Endoscopic Classification will be used to describe site and configuration of pharyngeal collapse in each study. The study will be scored by two experienced investigators, blind to the patient identification and type of study (natural sleep or drug-induced). Propofol-induced sleep will be performed at the operating room before surgery.

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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The VOTE Endoscopic Classification
Time Frame: Immediately, during the procedure
Comparison of site and configuration of endoscopy findings between the natural and drug-induced sleep endoscopy. The VOTE Endoscopic Classification describes the patterns and the degree of obstruction during sleep endoscopy.
Immediately, during the procedure

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
