Key information

About this study

This clinical trial is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study.

The first objective is to evaluate the influence of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment for OSAS on the ventricular function improvement in heart failure patients, in comparison with OSA patients treated with sham CPAP. This treatment will be instaurated just after the coronary reperfusion surgery

Secondary objectives :

  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on the endothelial function
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on systemic inflammation
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on oxidative stress,
  • Evaluation of the effect of CPAP treatment on insulin resistance,

after the coronary reperfusion surgery, in comparison with OSA patients treated with sham CPAP and non apneic control patients, with heart failure.

  • Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular reactivity and atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected during surgery.
  • Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin sensitivity on abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue collected during surgery.

Treatment and study plan

CPAP treatment

Procedure

This device consists in a nasal continuous positive airway pressure. It will be applied just after CABG and for 3 months for OSA/CPAP patients group.

Sham CPAP treatment

Other

This device consists in a sham continuous positive airway pressure. It will be applied just after CABG and for 3 months for OSA/sham CPAP patients group.

Primary outcomes

  1. Percent of ventricular function recovery (left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)) improvement conferred by CPAP post-operative treatment

    Time frame: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

    Measurement of the left ventricular ejection fraction by a cardiac ultrasonography

Secondary outcomes

  1. Assessment of CPAP effect on the endothelial function, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patient with heart failure and OSAS.

    Time frame: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

    Measurement of peripheral arterial tone

  2. Assessment of CPAP effect on the endothelial function, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patient with heart failure and OSAS.

    Time frame: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

    Measurement of pulse wave velocity

  3. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular atherosclerosis of mammary vessels collected only during CABG surgery.

    Time frame: Sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

    By immunological and histological analysis of mammary vessels

  4. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the oxidative stress, inflammation and insulin sensitivity of the abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue collected during surgery.

    Time frame: Sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

    Measuring inflammatory and oxidative adipose markers

  5. Assessment of the impact of nocturnal desaturation level on the vascular reactivity of mammary vessels collected during surgery.

    Time frame: Sleep disordered breathing level, 2 months before surgery

    By immunological and histological analysis of abdominal and epicardiac adipose tissue

  6. Assessment of CPAP effect on the systemic inflammation and oxidative stress, the insulin resistance, after the surgery in comparison with sham CPAP treated patients with heart failure and OSAS.

    Time frame: After 3 months of CPAP post-operative treatment

    Measurement of inflammatory and oxidative serum markers
