Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Nasal High flow therapy device

Experimental: Diagnostic PSG/PG, PSG w. nasal high flow therapy - All patients recruited will undergo a diagnostic sleep study, either a full in laboratory attended polysomnography (PSG), or an in-home polygraphy (PG). If respiratory insufficiencies with Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) are detected, these patients will undergo an overnight in laboratory attended PSG on a nasal high flow therapy device to test the primary endpoint of this study. Patients without respiratory insufficiencies after the first PSG/PG will take no further part in the trial.

Eligibility
Key inclusion criteria
* Men and Women aged = 18 years
* Heart Failure from ischemic or non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy for = 6 months
* Left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVEF =45% by echocardiography performed within 3 months of the screening visit, or if not within 3 months, a justification provided by the cardiologist for why a repeat echocardiography is not required, for example, because the subject's condition has remained stable since their echocardiography). All echocardiography must be within a maximum of 1 year of the screening visit.
* New York Heart Association Class II or III after optimization of medical therapy
* Stable Clinical Status on stable optimal medical therapy for = 1 month before entry

Summary
Brief summary
Respiratory insufficiencies during sleep can lead to reductions in the level of oxygen in the blood during the night, which has been shown to contribute to a range of morbidities.

The purpose of this study is to assess the possibility that a nasal high flow therapy device may be able to treat respiratory insufficiencies, by stabilizing breathing and preventing reduction in blood oxygen.

Heart failure patients will be screened at a heart failure clinic, and will be asked to undergo an overnight sleep study to determine is they exhibit respiratory insufficiencies during sleep. This sleep study may be completed in the sleep laboratory (attended polysomnography, PSG) or in-home (in-home polygraphy, PG). If they are diagnosed with respiratory insufficiencies, they will be asked to attend further overnight studies to see if treatment with nasal high flow therapy can be used to stabilize breathing.
