Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSA) and Getemed (GETEMED)

April 4, 2016 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

Diagnostic Characteristics of a Home Polysomnograph for the Diagnosis of Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome - A Pilot Study

It is often clinically impossible to differentiate children with an isolated snoring from those with OSA. The diagnosis of OSA is currently based on nocturnal, laboratory-based polysomnography. This expensive examination is poorly accessible due to appointments delays at hospital.

Our study is designed to compare the characteristics of a home polysomnography versus standard polysomnography for the diagnosis of pediatric OSA.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Characteristics of a home polysomnograph versus standard polysomnography for the diagnosis of OSA in children.
Time Frame: 1 night
  • Standard polysomnography considered pathological if obstructive apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) > 5 / hr.
  • Home polysomnography considered pathological if at least one of the following criteria is present :

    1. Respiratory Disturbance Index (RDI) > 10 / hr + /- Desaturation Index > 4% for more than 2.5 / hr.
    2. Brouillette index ; pulse wave > 3 desaturation clusters and > 3 desaturation <90%.
1 night

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
To determine polygraphic pathological criteria by comparing the RDI per hour of the home polysomnography versus the (AHI) of the standard polysomnography.
Time Frame: 1 night
