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.

Detailed Description

This Post Approval Study is a multi-center, prospective, single arm cohort study to evaluate the long-term safety, long-term effectiveness, and survival rate in subjects implanted with the remedē System from the remedē System Pivotal Trial. Only subjects who were implanted and actively being followed as part of the remedē System Pivotal Trial are eligible. An individual subject's participation is expected to continue to five years post remedē System implant.

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

21 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Only subjects who were implanted and actively being followed as part of the remedē System Pivotal Trial are eligible for this trial.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who were previously implanted with the remedē System and participated in the remedē System Pivotal Trial
  • In the investigator's opinion, willing and able to comply with all study requirements
  • Signed Institutional Review Board (IRB)/Independent Ethics Committee (IEC) approved informed consent (including Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] authorization in the US)

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

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
5-Year Survival Rate
Time Frame: Through 5 years
Assessment of survival in subjects with moderate to severe central sleep apnea being treated with the remedē System. The 5-year survival rate was estimated from Kaplan-Meier anlaysis, using time from implant to death, study exit or last contact. This analysis used all subjects enrolled in the original remede System Pivotal Trial.
Through 5 years
Number of Participants With Device-related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Through Three and Five Years
Time Frame: Through 5 years
Assessment of long-term safety via a summary of anticipated or unanticipated device-related SAEs. Proportion of subjects experiencing a device related SAE through the time point of interest. This analysis combined data from the original pivotal trial and this post approval study.
Through 5 years
Number of Participants With Therapy-related Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) Through Three and Five Years
Time Frame: Through 3 and 5 years
Assessment of the safety of the remedē System by evaluating anticipated or unanticipated therapy-related SAEs. Proportion of subjects experiencing a therapy related SAE through the time point of interest.
Through 3 and 5 years
Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) Change From Baseline at 5 Years
Time Frame: 5 years
Change in AHI = Year 5 index - Baseline index. The Apnea-Hypopnea Index is a measurement obtained from an overnight sleep study used to indicate the severity of sleep apnea. It is represented by the number of apnea and hypopnea events per hour of sleep. The events were scored according to the 2007 "American Academy of Sleep Medicine manual for the scoring of sleep and associated events: rules, terminology and technical specifications" (Iber, et. al).
5 years
Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) Change From Baseline at 5 Years
Time Frame: 5 years
Change in ESS = Year 5 score - Baseline score. The ESS is an assessment to measure a subject's general level of daytime sleepiness. Scores can range from 0-24, with higher scores indicating higher level of daytime sleepiness.
