Vagus nerve stimulation, sleep apnea, and CPAP titration.

Epilepsy and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are two relatively common disorders known to coexist and potentially exacerbate each other. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is a currently used, adjunctive treatment for partial epilepsy and is generally well tolerated with few associated side effects. Some of the more common side effects include hoarseness of voice, laryngeal irritation and cough, espec...

CPAP titration for sleep apnea using a split-night protocol.

We studied 107 patients with sleep-disordered breathing to confirm the effectiveness of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration using a split-night protocol. Patients spent two consecutive nights in our laboratory with complete polysomnography. On the first night, we applied a split-night protocol; the first half of the night was used as a baseline (B), and after a diagnosis was ma...

Comparison of CPAP titration at home or the sleep laboratory in the sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome.

STUDY OBJECTIVES Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is conventionally started after in-laboratory overnight titration. This use of sleep laboratory space is both costly and limits access for diagnostic studies. This study aimed to evaluate whether automated CPAP titration in the home produced patient outcomes equal t...

Vagus nerve stimulation therapy

Over the past 5 years, and especially within the last year, there has been a rapid expansion of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)-related preclinical research, as well as clinical studies in indications other than epilepsy. The research advances in understanding VNS are occurring in the midst of a blossoming of other forms of therapeutic brain stimulation, such as electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), t...
