Brief summary

Validation of an integrated digital solution (SUNrise®) of mandibular movement automatic analysis by artificial intelligence versus polysomnography for obstructive sleep apnea diagnosis: a prospective, randomized, parallel-arm, open-label, multicenter, national, controlled study.

Detailed description

The new Sunrise integrated digital solution is a disposable 3 gram sensor that sits on the chin for sleep disorders diagnosis. This device records mandibular movements, head movements and position during sleep. Data acquisition is done through a mobile application installed on the user smartphone. Data is then transferred automatically at the end of the test (overnight) to a cloud platform where it is automatically analyzed. The Health Care Professional (HCP) and the patient have access to sleep parameters and report. The objective of this trial is to determine the place of the Sunrise device in the care pathway in France for patients suspected of having OSA. The assumption is that Sunrise is both non-inferior to the normal practice (i.e., the PSG) on sleepiness at 3 months post-diagnosis, and superior to the PSG (outpatient or in-lab) in terms of time between inclusion and diagnosis appointment and treatment initiation. By speeding up the treatment initiation, the hypothesis is that Sunrise is also superior to the PSG on sleepiness as well as quality of life and work productivity at 3 months post-inclusion. Another assumption is that Sunrise is non-inferior to the PSG on CPAP compliance at 3 months following treatment initiation. The SUNSAS study will be launched in 19 centers (public and private) in France and will include 848 patients aged 18 to 80 years. Eligible patients will be included and randomized in 2 arms, i.e., the Sunrise arm and the PSG arm. An appointment to discuss the diagnosis and treatment options (for patients suffering from OSA) will be arranged after the procedure (PSG or Sunrise) is performed. On site follow-up visits will be then organized at 3 months post-inclusion and at 3 months post-diagnosis, and a phone call will be scheduled at 3 months post-treatment.

Inclusion criteria

* Man or woman aged between 18 to 80 years old * Patient referred for a suspicion of OSA * Patient having a smartphone and internet connection at home and able to use a mobile application * Patient affiliated to the social security system Main

Exclusion criteria

* Patient with a previous sleep test performed within 5 years of inclusion * Patient previously treated for OSA within 5 years of inclusion * Patient suffering from severe chronic obstructive or restrictive pulmonary disease with or without oxygen at the discretion of the investigator * Patient refusing to shave his beard that could prevent him to wear the device on the chin

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in daily sleepiness3 months post-diagnosisTo determine the non-inferiority of Sunrise vs PSG on sleepiness at 3 months post-diagnosis using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score. The ESS score (the sum of 8 item scores, 0-3) can range from 0 to 24. The higher the ESS score, the higher the average sleep propensity in daily life.
Time to diagnosisUp to 12 monthsTo determine the superiority of Sunrise vs PSG in terms of time between inclusion and diagnosis appointment
Time to treatmentUp to 15 monthsTo determine the superiority of Sunrise vs PSG in terms of time between inclusion and treatment initiation

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Net profit for the French social securityestimated at 3 yearsEstimation of the net profit for the French social security at 3 years
Comparison of CPAP compliance data3 month after treatment initiationTo determine the non-inferiority of Sunrise vs PSG on CPAP compliance measured at 3 months post-treatment by comparing CPAP average usage in both groups
Change in quality of life3 months post inclusion visitTo determine the superiority of Sunrise vs PSG on quality of life at 3 months post-inclusion using Short Form 36 (SF-36) SF-36 is a 0-100 scale score, a score of zero is equivalent to maximum disability and a score of 100 is equivalent to no disability.
Difference in the obstructive respiratory disturbance index (ORDI)Up to 12 monthsTo measure the variability of the ORDI by comparing the 3 obstructive respiratory disturbance index (ORDI) measures provided by the Sunrise device (used 3 nights)
Comparison of Sunrise versus PSG diagnosisUp to 12 monthsTo confirm the diagnosis performance of Sunrise compared to PSG by comparing the obstructive respiratory disturbance index (ORDI) in both groups
Change in work productivity3 months post-inclusionTo determine the superiority of Sunrise vs PSG on work productivity at 3 months post-inclusion using WPAI:SHP
