CPAP Effect on Blood Pressure and Arterial Stiffness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients With Resistant...
HypertensionResistant to Conventional Therapy1 moreResistant hypertension is defined as uncontrolled blood pressure (BP ≥ 140/90mmHg) despite the current use of three or more antihypertensive drugs at full doses, including a diuretic. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is at high risk for cardiovascular morbidity and is highly prevalent in patients with resistant hypertension. The prospective observational POP-ART study will assess the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment on BP in patients with resistant hypertension and collect data from usual care.

Obstructive Sleep ApneaEnd Stage Renal DiseaseThe purpose of this study is to prospectively evaluate the impact of sleep apnea on the cardiovascular morbidity and mortality of patients with end-stage renal disease.
The Effect of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment on Dizziness, Vertigo
Sleep ApneaDizziness1 moreObstructive Sleep Apnea may cause dizziness or vertigo through hypoxia of the vestibular nuclei in the brain. Treating sleep apnea may improve dizziness or vertigo.
French Cohort Study of Chronic Heart Failure Patients With Central Sleep Apnoea Eligible for Adaptive...
Central Sleep ApneaHeart FailureThe purpose of this study is to determine the predictive factors of poor compliance to sleep disordered breathing therapy in chronic heart failure patients treated for central sleep apnea. To characterize nocturia pathophysiology associated with SDB in this population. To use telemonitoring data to define predictive factors of poor compliance.
Effect of Catheter-based Radiofrequency Ablation Therapy in Patient With Therapy-resistant Hypertension...
Therapy-resistant Hypertension and Sleep ApneaThe aim of this prospective single-center study is to evaluate sympathetic nervous system directly measured by microneurography, 24-hour blood pressure, endothelial function, vascular compliance, quality of life and platelet adhesion in patients with sleep apnea syndrome (defined by a complaint of excessive daytime sleepiness, an Epworth sleepiness score>8[10], and an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI>15/h) before and after catheter-based radiofrequency ablation of renal nerve. If the selected patients are treated with CPAP, this therapy should be stable during the whole study time. Primary and secondary end-point will be measured before and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after renal sympathetic denervation.
Comparison Of The Berlin Questionnaire To The Portland Sleep Quiz
Sleep ApneaThis trial is enrolling patients who are already being seen at OHSU sleep disorder center or have been referred for clinical reasons by their physician to the OHSU sleep disorder center and are going to have a sleep study that would be paid for by their insurance company for clinical reasons. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Portland sleep apnea quiz has a higher specificity and negative predictive value then the Berlin Sleep Questionnaire in a patient population with a high predisposition to sleep apnea presenting to a sleep center.
Eval EarlySense Bet Lowenstein Sleeplab
ObeseSleep Apnea4 moreThe study objective is to collect heart rate, respiration rate and motion data of patients admitted to sleep lab and to determine the accuracy level of the EarlySense system vs. the monitors used in sleep lab (e.g., Polysomnography, respiratory belts, ECG, etc..) . Data regarding sleep condition, scoring and quality of sleep and in and out of bed status, patient turns will also be collected and compared to data collected by EarlySense contactless monitor. Different patient population will be monitored including obese, morbidly obese, patients with or without obstructive/central apnea, patients with or without arrhythmia as well as healthy population who arrive to sleep lab for general evaluation will be monitored
Validation of Withings Sleep for the Detection of Sleep Apnea Syndrome
Sleep Apnea SyndromesSleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS) is a common pathology affecting between 4 and 8% of the general population. It aggravates morbidity and cardio-metabolic mortality and is responsible for accidents related to vigilance disorders. It is estimated that 80% of SAS cases are not diagnosed and therefore not treated. It is however impracticable to propose a diagnostic test of polygraphy (PG) or polysomnography (PSG) to every patient because of the cost and insufficient availability of these exams. It would therefore be useful to carry out a screening test before directing the patient to a complete test. Several simplified polygraph systems with 2 or 3 channels have been proposed (nasal cannula, oximetry, heart rate) but they generally record only one night and remain intrusive enough to perturb the sleep. The Withings Sleep is a non-contact device, along with an airbag placed under the mattress, which allows screening of SAS from four signals: movement, breathing, heart rate and snoring. The objective of the present study is to validate the diagnostic performance of the Withings Sleep for the detection of SAS compared to PSG.
Validation of a New Algorithm for Screening Sleep Apnea Syndrome From Electrocardiogram
Sleep ApneaSleep apnea syndrome is a prevalent disease, recognized as an independant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases The gold standard for the diagnosis of sleep apnea is the polysomnography. But polysomnography is time-consuming and very expensive. We developed an algorithm for screening sleep apnea from electrocardiographic signal. This would lead to the simplification of screening sleep apnea by using a two-channels recording device and computerizing the scoring of respiratory events. The validation of the algorithm will consist in comparing the number of apnea and hypopnea per hour of sleep (AHI) detected by the algorithm from the electrocardiographic signal recorded during a standard polysomnography in the Center for Sleep Medicine and Research in Nancy, with the AHI resulted from the standard interpretation of the same polysomnography by experts in sleep scoring (gold standard).
Sleep Apnea and Tromboembolic Disease
Sleep Apnea SyndromesVenous ThromboembolismThere is some evidence for a hypercoagulable state in sleep apnea-hipopnea syndrome (SAHS), which could play a role in the increased cardiovascular morbility and mortality. Respiratory alterations (hypoxia, hypoxia- reoxygenation) and sleep fragmentation that these patients suffer during the sleep may induce modifications in clotting-fibrinolisis factors that may be a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). OBJECTIVES:To calculate and compare the prevalence of sleep apnea-hipopnea syndrome in patients with venous thromboembolism with a gender, aged and BMI matched control group. Assessment of the association between SAHS and other risk factors for VTE. To compare clotting- fibrinolisis patterns, sleep parameters, blood pressure and pulmonary arterial obstruction index in patients with SAHS and VTE and those ones without SAHS.
