Improvement of Sleep Quality by RePneu® Coils in Advanced Pulmonary Emphysema

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
COPD
Emphysema
Interventions
Other: Polysomnographic diagnostic
Registration Number
NCT02399514
Lead Sponsor
Institut für Pneumologie Hagen Ambrock eV
Brief Summary

Improvement of sleep quality in emphysema patients is desirable. Yet, there are no data of patients treated with RePneu coils. This monocenter prospective study investigates the effect on sleep quality of RePneu coils for reduction of dynamic hyperinflation in advanced disease stages of pulmonary emphysema.

Patient's sleep will be studied in three Polysomnography measurement nights, one prior to Coil Treatment, one six months after, and one twelve month after.

Primary objective is to investigate differences in sleep quality 6 and 12 months after Coil Treatment.

Further endpoints are changes in daily activity and sleep (actigraphy), 6MWT, lung function parameters, and questionnaires (SGRQ, mMRC dyspnoe scale).

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Sleep efficiency, measured in baseline and 6 and 12 month after coil treatment.3 times in one year

Sleep Efficiency is evaluated by the ratio of WASO (Time "wake after sleep onset") to Sleep Period Time (SPT).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of life Questionnaire3 times in one year

The St. George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ) is designed to capture the health related quality of life.
