Adaptive Servo-Ventilation in "Real Life" Conditions : the OTRLASV Study

Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) treatment is routinely prescribed in France. In order to be reimbursed according to the French Social Security rules, the patient treated with an ASV needs to be examined each year. In this observational transversal single-visit study, the investigators aim to describe the clinical characteristics of patients treated with ASV and the associated device settings.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate in "real life conditions" the use of Adaptative Servo-Ventilation (ASV) treatment. ASV treatment is routinely prescribed in France in patients with various sleep disorders breathing (Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) and Central Sleep Apnea Syndrome (CSAS), CHF and central and obstructive sleep apnea (COSA), Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS) and complex sleep apnea syndrome (compSAS), idiopathic or drug induced periodic breathing.

In order to be reimbursed according to the French Social Security rules, the patient treated with an ASV needs to be examined each year. In this observational transversal single-visit study, the aim is to describe the clinical characteristics of patients treated with ASV and the associated device settings. The aim is to evaluate the safety and efficacy issues in real life conditions of the ASV prescription.Depending of the data, data are obtained after analysis of the six latest months data of the ASV device, after questioning the patient, after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if prescribed by the doctor for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security). All the data are obtained during the annual consultation required by the French Social Security.

Treatment and study plan

Adaptive Servo-Ventilation

Device

Adaptive Servo-Ventilation proceeds by continually measuring either minute ventilation or airflow and calculates a target ventilation to be applied as needed.

Primary outcomes

  1. Residual Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI) evaluated by the ASV device and associated pressure settings

    Time frame: The measures are performed during the annual consultation required by the French Social Security for the renewal of the reimbursement of the ASV care. The measures are obtained after analysis of the six latest months data of the device.

    Relationship between the residual AHI and the associated pressure settings, in function of the phenotype of the patients (presence or absence of cardiopathy, presence or absence of altered left ventricular ejection fraction (≤45% or > 45%)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Sleep Disorder Breathing involved in the initial prescription of ASV

    Time frame: The day of inclusion

    The data are obtained after questioning the patient (Epworth, Pichot and satisfaction scales) or after analysis of the six latest months data of the device or after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if necessary and prescribed by the doctor in order to monitoring the patient for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security).

  2. ASV compliance (number of hour per day, number of day with ≥3 hours in the past 6 months)

    Time frame: The day of inclusion during the consultation or in a maximum delay of 15 days after (if the patient forgot to bring his device)

    The data are obtained after questioning the patient (Epworth, Pichot and satisfaction scales) or after analysis of the six latest months data of the device or after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if necessary and prescribed by the doctor in order to monitoring the patient for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security).

  3. Type of device used nad history of device used (CPAP used before ASV ?)

    Time frame: The day of inclusion during the consultation or in a maximum delay of 15 days after (if the patient forgot to bring his device)

    The data are obtained after questioning the patient (Epworth, Pichot and satisfaction scales) or after analysis of the six latest months data of the device or after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if necessary and prescribed by the doctor in order to monitoring the patient for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security)

  4. Used or not of an auto-EPAP

    Time frame: The day of inclusion during the consultation or in a maximum delay of 15 days after (if the patient forgot to bring his device)

    The data are obtained after questioning the patient (Epworth, Pichot and satisfaction scales) or after analysis of the six latest months data of the device or after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if necessary and prescribed by the doctor in order to monitoring the patient for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security).

  5. Settings of the device (Inspiratory and Expiratory pressures, duration of pressurization, backup frequency)

    Time frame: The day of inclusion during the consultation or in a maximum delay of 15 days after (if the patient forgot to bring his device)

    The data are obtained after questioning the patient (Epworth, Pichot and satisfaction scales) or after analysis of the six latest months data of the device or after analysis of the polygraphy/oximetry (if necessary and prescribed by the doctor in order to monitoring the patient for the renewal consultation of the ASV care and reimbursement by the French Social Security).

  6. Type of mask used and historical use of mask

    Time frame: The day of inclusion during the consultation or in a maximum delay of 15 days after (if the patient forgot to bring his device)
