Absolute Near-Infrared Brain Oximeter
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating OxiplexTS for Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 309 participants across 4 sites.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this trial is to assess the performance of the OxiplexTS-an absolute near-infrared oximeter-as an instrument to measure brain oxygenation and hemodynamics in sleep medicine as well as in the broader field of cardiovascular/cerebrovascular diagnostics.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
OxiplexTS is a Frequency Domain Near-Infrared Tissue oximeter which provides absolute values of tissue oxygenation in real time. It also provides physiological quantities of oxy, deoxy and total hemoglobin concentration, which form the basis for the functional measurement of brain hemodynamics. Both the control and OSA groups will undergo standard overnight sleep study (PSG). In addition to the standard PSG, with or without Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), we will add the OxiplexTS, allowing us to assess brain oxygenation and hemodynamics during sleep. The hemodynamic patterns of the healthy controls will be compared to the OSA sufferers. Participants with OSA who undergo PSG/CPAP will be also tested with the OxiplexTS. Their PSGs and PSG/CPAP data will be compared.
