Evaluation of upper airway patency during Cheyne-Stokes breathing in heart failure patients.
Little is known about the changes in upper airway calibre in Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) during sleep in patients with congestive heart failure. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that upper airway closure occurs during central CSR events, by assessing upper airway calibre during sleep using the forced oscillation technique (FOT). Nine males with compensated heart failure (left ventric...
متن کاملUpper airway patency during apnoea of prematurity.
Twenty four preterm infants (median birth weight 1120 g and gestation 29 weeks) were studied on 83 occasions by measuring upper airway airflow. Airway patency was detected by the transmission of cardiac impulse up the airway and airway closure by its absence. A total of 309 apnoeas of at least five seconds' duration were recorded. One hundred and eighty (58.0%) were central, 109 (35.5%) mixed, ...
متن کاملNeuromechanical control of upper airway patency during sleep.
Obstructive sleep apnea is caused by pharyngeal occlusion due to alterations in upper airway mechanical properties and/or disturbances in neuromuscular control. The objective of the study was to determine the relative contribution of mechanical loads and dynamic neuromuscular responses to pharyngeal collapse during sleep. Sixteen obstructive sleep apnea patients and sixteen normal subjects were...
متن کاملEffects of pentobarbital on upper airway patency during sleep.
We hypothesised that pentobarbital would improve upper airway mechanics based on an increase in latency to arousal and amplitude of the phasic genioglossus electromyogram (EMG), and a decrease in the active upper airway critical closing pressure (P(crit)). 12 healthy subjects received pentobarbital (100 mg) or placebo in a double-blind, crossover protocol. During wakefulness, we measured the ge...
