Heart Rate Variability and Nocturnal Blood Oxygen Saturation in Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to compare the overnight heart rate variability (HRV) and nocturnal oxygen saturation (SpO2) in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The main questions it aims to answer are: (1). if there are correlations between pulmonary function test and HRV and overnight SpO2; (2). if HRV and SpO2 can predict the occurrence of acute exacerbation in patients with IPF. Participants will be asked to examine pulmonary function test (including lung volumes and six-minute walk test) and wear pulse oxygenation recorder and "LARGAN" ECG Holter" ("LARGAN HEALTH TECHNOLOGY" Sleep Apnea And Sleep Quality Examination System) during sleep.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
IPF patients with acute exacerbation during test period IPF patients completing pulmonary function, overnight SpO2 monitor and "LARGAN" ECG Holter reqire hospitalization during test period. |
Device: "LARGAN" ECG Holter
wear "LARGAN" ECG Holter during sleep once after completion of pulmonary function test
|
IPF patients without acute exacerbation during test period IPF patients completing pulmonary function, overnight SpO2 monitor and "LARGAN" ECG Holter remain stable during test period. |
Device: "LARGAN" ECG Holter
wear "LARGAN" ECG Holter during sleep once after completion of pulmonary function test
