Technical Feasibility Study on Screening Sleep Related Breathing Disturbances and Sleep Apnoea With Wearable Sensors (Screenbeat)

October 10, 2023 updated by: Firstbeat Technologies Oy
In this study the feasibility of detecting sleep apnoeas with unobtrusive wearable sensors and sounds recorded with a smartphone is studied by making an overnight recording to patients with high probability of sleep apnoeas. The data acquired with the aforementioned devices is: ECG, acceleration, bioimpedance of thorax and processed and raw audio. In data analysis phase it will be studied which combinations of these signals would enable detecting sleep apnoeas with high enough sensitivity and specificity when compared to a night polygraphy reference (Nox T3 device using airflow, breathing movements, audio, position, movement, oxygen saturation, pulse and leg EMG).

Study Overview

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.

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.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

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

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study group will be recruited from occupational health care patients who have been earlier admitted by Mehiläinen for a PG study at KNF-laboratoriot.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • High a priori probability for SA based on previous PG findings, BMI, and ESS and medical history
  • Clinical reason i.e. potential benefit of repeating the PG due to e.g. technical challenges in the previous PG and/or unclear findings or diagnosis. Participation may be offered also in cases where first PG is diagnostic. In these cases accuracy of sleep apnoea grading will be improved.
  • Adequate Finnish language skills to comprehend study-related instructions and questionnaires. The study materials are available only in Finnish.
  • Signed written informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Medical history of a major cardiovascular event (myocardial infarction, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG), percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), stroke, or transient ischemic attack) within the previous 6 months
  • Use of cardiac pacemaker or history of atrial fibrillation

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 sensitivity and specificity of apnoea detection using the Screenbeat technology
Time Frame: 1 day
The sensitivity and specificity of apnoea detection using the Screenbeat technology with different combinations of electrocardiogram (ECG), movement, bioimpedance and audio data, as measured by the AHI (apnoea-hypopnoea events per hour). The clinical reference for SA detection will be provided by PG.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
July 18, 2022

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
