SLEEP DISORDERED BREATHING Effect of continuous positive airway pressure on ventricular ectopy in heart failure patients with obstructive sleep apnoea
Background: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) elicits a number of cardiovascular perturbations that could lead acutely or chronically to increased ventricular ectopy in patients with heart failure (HF). We tested the hypothesis that treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in patients with HF would reduce the frequency of ventricular premature beats (VPBs) during sleep in a...
متن کاملTreatment of sleep-disordered breathing with positive airway pressure devices: technology update
Many types of positive airway pressure (PAP) devices are used to treat sleep-disordered breathing including obstructive sleep apnea, central sleep apnea, and sleep-related hypoventilation. These include continuous PAP, autoadjusting CPAP, bilevel PAP, adaptive servoventilation, and volume-assured pressure support. Noninvasive PAP has significant leak by design, which these devices adjust for in...
متن کاملTreatment of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing with positive airway pressure systems
Positive airway pressure systems are widely used to treat patients with moderate-tosevere obstructive sleep-disordered breathing. The application of stable continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) via the nose (nasal CPAP) has been the mainstay of treatment since the early 1980s. For treatment to be effective, the pressure level must be fine-tuned to restore patency of the individual patient’...
متن کاملEffects of continuous positive airway pressure on upper airway inspiratory dynamics in awake patients with sleep-disordered breathing.
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the main treatment of the obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS). We assessed its effects on the upper airway (UA) dynamics in response to bilateral anterior magnetic phrenic nerve stimulation (BAMPS) in 17 awake untreated OSAS patients (15 males; 52 +/- 7 years) whose effective CPAP (P(eff)) had been determined beforehand by a conventional titrat...
متن کاملResidual sleep-disordered breathing during autotitrating continuous positive airway pressure therapy.
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is often treated with autotitrating continuous positive airway pressure (autoCPAP) devices. Clinical and bench tests of these devices have suggested performance limitations. These studies do not indicate whether this is a failure to detect or a failure to respond to airway obstruction. In this randomised, crossover trial, 34 patients with moderate-to-severe OSA un...
