AirSense 10 AHI Validation Study

March 26, 2019 updated by: ResMed

Accuracy of Detection and Reporting of Sleep-disordered Breathing Metrics Determined by the ResMed AirSense 10 in AirView

The AirSense 10 platform is able to detect respiratory events at night and report these data via telemonitoring. The accuracy of the AirSense 10 will be compared with scoring with polysomnography (PSG). 100 patients will be observed in a sleep facility under PSG and AirSense treatment.

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Sleep disordered breathing is commonly assessed by calculating an Apnea-Hypopnea-Index AHI and a Hypopnea-Index HI to define how frequent breathing or breathing efforts stop during the night. The severity of sleep apnea (SA) is determined by the number of occurring apneas and hypopneas. The respiratory disturbance index (RDI) captures these events and is calculated comprising an AHI but also RERAs via the flow signal. Polysomnography (PSG) is being used in the sleep laboratory as the Gold standard method to document a patient's sleep behavior by tracking air flow, respiratory effort, blood oxygen and electrocardiac as well as electromyographic signals. This way a comprehensive sleep pattern analysis can be created and different forms of SA can be detected. However, the method is laborious and cost-intensive, so it could save time and costs to have events accurately scored by the device itself. Device data become important when tracking a patient's sleep night by night and not only once. Reliable sleep data can be a valuable tool for tailoring sleep therapy to specific patient's needs. Accurate device data also build the foundation for analysis of large amounts of data, which can help us understanding how sleep disorders develop.

Interventional

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.

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
To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the AirSense 10 Apnea-Hypopnea-Index (AHI) algorithm compared to polysomnography (PSG) scored AHI.
Time Frame: 1 night
Calculate accuracy of the device when scoring Apnoeas and Hypopneas by comparing to polysomnography scoring. Identify Apneas (at least 90% decrease of airflow for at least 10 seconds) and Hypopneas (decrease of airflow by at least 30% for at least 10 seconds accompanied by a reduction of Oxygen Saturation of 4%) and calculate the apnea-hypopnea-index (AHI): (apneas + hypopneas)/hours of sleep.
