An interventional study of STOP-BANG Scoring Model and Polysomnogram Sleep Study in Obstructive Sleep Apnea, Sleep Apnea and Congestive Heart Failure, sponsored by University of Florida. Withdrawn at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 110 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2017-05-17.

Patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) on non-Intensive Care Unit medical services and/or visiting our outpatient Congestive Heart Failure Clinic will be screened using the STOP-BANG Scoring Model. (STOP-BANG stands for Snoring, Tiredness, Observed Apnea, Blood Pressure, Body Mass Index, Age, Neck Circumference, Gender.) Patients with high risk of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) will be referred for evaluation and treatment of Sleep Apnea. They will be followed to determine if treatment of Sleep Apnea improves their quality of life and decreases their utilization of the Hospital and Emergency Department (ED).
Patients with Congestive Heart Failure on non-Intensive Care Unit Medical Services and/or visiting our outpatient Congestive Heart Failure clinic will be screened using the STOP-BANG Scoring Model. Patients with high risk of Obstructive Sleep Apnea will be referred to the Sleep Center physicians for evaluation and treatment. Patients will be followed for one year to determine if the treatment for Sleep Apnea improves their Quality of Life and decreases Hospital and Emergency Department utilization.

Patients with Congestive Heart Failure on non-Intensive Care Unit Medical Services and/or visiting our outpatient Congestive Heart Failure Clinic will be administered the STOP-BANG Scoring Model to determine whether they are considered high-risk or low-risk for Sleep Apnea.
Patients determined by the STOP-BANG Scoring Model to be high-risk for Sleep Apnea will be referred to the Sleep Center physicians for evaluation and treatment. If medically indicated, a Polysomnogram Sleep Study will be performed.
