Temporal Relation of Myocardial Ischemia to Nocturnal Desaturation of Oxygen in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease
Purpose: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is frequently associated with coronary artery disease. Causal relation of nocturnal respiratory disorders to the onset of myocardial ischemia has been discussed controversially. Methods: Patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were enrolled in the present pilot study. Overnight polygraphy and 12-lead ECG were performed in all patients. Patients with no...
متن کاملNocturnal oxygen desaturation correlates with the severity of coronary atherosclerosis in coronary artery disease.
STUDY OBJECTIVES It has been suggested that sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is a risk factor for ischemic heart disease, and may be associated with increased morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between nocturnal oxygen desaturation (NOD) due to SDB and the Gensini score, which is given to define the severity of coronary ather...
متن کاملIncidence of nocturnal desaturation while breathing oxygen in COPD patients undergoing long-term oxygen therapy.
STUDY OBJECTIVE It is suggested that oxygen flow be increased by 1 L/min during sleep in COPD patients undergoing long-term oxygen therapy (LTOT) in order to avoid nocturnal desaturations. The purpose of this study was to investigate the occurrence of nocturnal desaturations while breathing oxygen in COPD patients receiving LTOT. SETTING Inpatient/university hospital. PATIENTS We studied 82...
متن کاملPredictive indexes of nocturnal desaturation in COPD patients not treated with long term oxygen therapy.
Nocturnal oxygen desaturation during the sleep is very frequent in patients affected by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Hypoventilation, rather than sleeping apnea, is commonly considered as the most relevant factor in the onset of nocturnal oxygen desaturation. On this topic, the Authors have carried on a study on the nocturnal hypoxemia in 70 hospitalized COPD patients with a me...
متن کاملNocturnal oxygen desaturation and spirometric parameters in adults with cystic fibrosis.
BACKGROUND Correction of nocturnal hypoxaemia in patients with cystic fibrosis may delay the development of pulmonary hypertension. Descriptive statistics used for nocturnal arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) lack uniformity. The relationship between SpO2 and spirometric parameters has not previously been explored in a large number of exacerbations in adult patients with cystic fibrosis. METHO...
