ASV for Sleep Apnea After Myocardial Infarction

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Sleep Apnea
Acute Myocardial Infarction
Interventions
Device: Adaptive servo-ventilation
Registration Number
NCT02093377
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital Regensburg
Brief Summary

The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effect of 12 weeks Adaptive Servo-Ventilation (ASV) therapy (additionally to optimal medical management of myocardial infarction) on myocardial salvage (MSI=myocardial salvage/area at risk, primary endpoint).

Detailed Description

Primary Outcome Measure: myocardial salvage index, MSI

- To test the effect of 12 weeks of ASV (additionally to percutaneous coronary intervention, PCI, and optimal medical management of AMI) on myocardial salvage (myocardial salvage index, MSI, assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, CMR).

Secondary Outcome Measures:

- To test whether ASV therapy in patients with SA early after AMI decreases infarct size and improves left ventricular remodelling (myocardial salvage, microvascular obstruction change of infarct size, infarct size at 12 weeks, change of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular systolic volume (LVSV), left ventricular diastolic volume (LVDV) and LVEF at 12 weeks; assessed with CMR).

B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP)

* To test whether ASV therapy in patients with SA early after AMIimproves disease specific symptom burden (Seattle Angina Questionnaire)

* To test whether ASV therapy in patients with sleep apnea early after AMI suppresses sleep apnea (apneas and hypopneas/hour of sleep, mean oxygen saturation).

* To test whether ASV therapy in patients with sleep apnea early after AMI increases renal function (Glomerular Filtration Rate, calculated using the 4vMDRD formula).

Adaptive servo-ventilationAdaptive servo-ventilationoptimal medical therapy for the management of myocardial infarction according to the current guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology plus treatment of sleep apnea with adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV, most recent technology of AutoSetCS device, ResMed, Sydney, Australia). Dose: The optimal ASV settings will be determined during 1-2 nights monitored by polygraphy within 5 days after PCI.
