Uitkomstmaten
Primaire uitkomstmaten
To demonstrate the primary objective of this investigation, the following primary endpoint will be evaluated:
A reduction in number of AHI events/hr greater than 10, or the percentage of reduction in AHI events/hr greater or equal than 50% in comparison to baseline.
Baseline data for the primary endpoint will come from the Baseline PSG, that is recorded before the SleepAssist device is activated (Day 1). Results will be measured at the end of the study, the Final PSG (day 25/26 +/- 7days):
The primary endpoint is defined the proportion of participants responders to the SleepAssist device. Responders will be defined as follow:
- Reduction in number of Apnea-Hypopnea index (AHI) events/hour greater than 10
- Or a reduction in AHI events/hour greater or equal than 50% in comparison to baseline
The AHI is the number of apneas or hypopneas recorded during the study per hour of sleep. It is expressed as the number of events per hour.
The main analysis of the primary endpoint will be conducted on the FAS population with the strategy missing=failure.
The proportion of responder and non-responder participants will be described (n and %) with its associated 95% Confidence Interval.
Number of AHI will also be described as a quantitative variable at baseline and at day 24. Comparison between values at Day 24 and baseline will be done using a paired Student test (parametric test) or Wilcoxon test (nonparametric test) depending on the distribution of the variable.
Based on the AHI, the severity of obstructive sleep apnea is classified as follows (29):
- None/Minimal: AHI < 5 per hour
- Mild: AHI ≥ 5, but < 15 per hour
- Moderate: AHI ≥ 15, but < 30 per hour
- Severe: AHI ≥ 30 per hour
The severity of obstructive sleep apnea will be described as a qualitative variable.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
A single-arm, single-center, intra-patient, controlled investigation to show the efficacy of the SleepAssist device in reducing AHI events in patients suffering from POSA through polysomnography (PSG) analysis.
The primary objective of this investigation is to demonstrate that the SleepAssist device is effective in reducing events as measured by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) during sleep in POSA patients.
Main secondary objectives of this investigation are to confirm the device is safe and well tolerated by patients, and to evaluate two additional important factors for the efficacy of positional therapy, namely:
‒ To show that patients move from supine position to a different sleeping position
‒ To evaluate compliance
Approximately 67 subjects will be enrolled to be able to have 50 evaluable subjects. The subjects will go through a screening period where POSA will be diagnosed with PSG. After this, the subject will start sleeping on the SleepAssist device. First, while sleeping on an inactive device, a home PSG will be done as baseline. Then there is a 1 week training period, followed by a 15 day therapeutic period. After this, a final PSG will be performed.
Doel van het onderzoek
The SleepAssist device is effective in reducing events as measured by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) during sleep in POSA patients.
