Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to identify whether pregnant women with chronic hypertension are at significantly higher risk of having undiagnosed OSA and should be routinely screened with home sleep tests. The investigators will recruit 120 pregnant subjects between 10-20 weeks gestation from the Duke High Risk Obstetrics Clinic over a 20-month period. They will be enrolled into one of two groups: 1) chronic hypertension (on medication or hypertensive blood pressures documented at 3 clinic visits); 2) normal blood pressure, and not on any treatment for chronic HTN and no history of chronic HTN, and matched for BMI (+/- 3 kg/m2) with the chronic HTN group. The two groups will be matched for BMI to control for the effect of obesity on OSA diagnosis and cHTN. The primary hypothesis, that OSA prevalence differs between patients with chronic HTN and normotensive controls, will be assessed with a two-group two-sided Fisher's exact test. A Fisher's exact test with a 0.05 two-sided significance level will have 92% power to detect the difference between a normotensive OSA rate of 0.10 and a chronic hypertensive OSA rate of 0.40 when the sample size in each group is 50. There are no risks associated with the use of the home sleep test device, but subjects that have a severe latex allergy should not participate, as the device

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Chronic Hypretension in Pregnancy

Pregnant subjects between 10-20 weeks gestation with chronic hypertension (on medication or hypertensive blood pressures documented at 2 clinic visits)

WP200U home sleep study device

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

WP200U, is a Type III, wrist-worn, FDA-approved home sleep testing device that utilizes finger plethysmography (peripheral arterial tone, oxyhemoglobin saturation and heart rate), actigraphy (movement), acoustic decibel detection (snoring volume), and accelerometry (body position) to help diagnose sleep-related breathing disorders (including snoring), and to give information about sleep stages and position during actual sleep time.

Normotensive in Pregnancy

Pregnant subjects between 10-20 weeks gestation with normal blood pressure, and not on any treatment for chronic hypertension and no history of chronic hypertension, and matched for body mass index (+/- 3 kg/m2) with the chronic hypertension group.

WP200U home sleep study device

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

WP200U, is a Type III, wrist-worn, FDA-approved home sleep testing device that utilizes finger plethysmography (peripheral arterial tone, oxyhemoglobin saturation and heart rate), actigraphy (movement), acoustic decibel detection (snoring volume), and accelerometry (body position) to help diagnose sleep-related breathing disorders (including snoring), and to give information about sleep stages and position during actual sleep time.
