Study summary

The main goal of the study is to explore the relationship between obstructive sleep apnoea and nocturia.

Read the detailed description

The observation study will be performed on patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnoea. Patients will undergo routine examination for sleep apnoea and will be asked to fill in voiding diaries for 48 hours. The main goal of the study is to find whether there are any parameters of sleep apnoea associated with occurrence of the nocturia.

Study population

Adult patients with diagnosed moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnoea (AHI > 15).

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • patients diagnosed obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA )
  • Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) > 15
  • ability to fill in the voiding diaries
  • signed

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • patients using diuretics
  • patients with
  • pregnancy
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Cancer (malignancy)

Malignancy means cancer. Criteria about another or earlier malignancy ask whether you have had a different cancer, usually within a set number of years.

Some are commonly allowed, such as treated skin cancers other than melanoma and early cancers removed completely — check the exceptions this study lists.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change in the parameters of sleep apnoea - (apnea-hypopnea index - AHI)

    The change in parameters of sleep apnoea - apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up, before and after the treatment intervention for correction of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The obtained data will be correlated with the information from the voiding diary. The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) is the combined average number of apneas and hypopneas that occur per hour of sleep. According to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) it is categorized into mild (5-15 events/hour), moderate (15-30 events/hour), and severe (\> 30 events/hour).ollow-up, before and after the treatment intervention for correction of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The obtained data will be correlated with the information from the voiding diary.

    Time frame: 3 months

  2. Change in the parameters of sleep apnoea - oxygen desaturation index (ODI)

    The change in parameters of sleep apnoea - oxygen desaturation index (ODI) will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up, before and after the treatment intervention for correction of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The obtained data will be correlated with the information from the voiding diary. ODI refers to the average number of desaturation episodes occurring per hour, where desaturation episodes are defined as a decrease in the mean oxygen saturation of ≥3% (over the last 120 seconds) that lasts for at least 10 seconds.

    Time frame: 3 months

  3. Change in the parameters of sleep apnoea - time under 90% saturation (T90)

    The change in parameters of sleep apnoea - time under 90% saturation (T90) will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up, before and after the treatment intervention for correction of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The obtained data will be correlated with the information from the voiding diary. T90 was defined as the proportion of cumulative sleep time with oxygen saturation below 90% in total sleep time. T90≤5% of the total sleep time was classified as light hypoxia, T90 of 5-10% as mild hypoxia,10-25% as moderate hypoxia, and \>25% as severe hypoxia.

    Time frame: 3 months

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in the data from the voiding diary - functional capacity of the bladder

    The change in bladder-derived parameters will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up - functional capacity of the bladder will be measured in milliliters (mL).

    Time frame: 3 months

  2. Change in the data from the voiding diary - daily diuresis

    The change in bladder-derived parameters will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up - daily diuresis will be measured in milliliters (mL).

    Time frame: 3 months

  3. Change in the data from the voiding diary - number of voiding episodes

    The change in bladder-derived parameters will be monitored from the baseline to the end of follow-up - the number of voiding episodes during sleep will be counted and monitored.

    Time frame: 3 months
