Some factors affecting cerebral tissue saturation during obstructive sleep apnoea.

چکیده
Measurement of cerebral tissue saturation during obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) may provide additional information to conventional peripheral oxygen saturation. Thirteen subjects with OSA (mean apnoea/hypopnoea index 65.7+/-27.9) were monitored using full polysomnography and monitoring of near-infrared cerebral tissue oxygenation index (TOI). One-thousand and thirty-six apnoeas and hypopnoeas were analysed, in terms of duration, sleep stage, arterial oxygen saturation (Sa,O2) dip, minimum Sa,O2, TOI dip and minimum TOI. Cerebral TOI is a measure of cerebral tissue saturation of haemoglobin with oxygen, calculated using near-infrared spatially resolved spectroscopy, which has been shown to have a high specificity for intracranial changes. Decreases in cerebral oxygenation were observed during apnoeas and hypopnoeas. Baseline TOI ranged from 50.1-73.0% and mean apnoea/hypopnoea related TOI dips ranged from 1.43-6.85%. Mean Sa,O2 dips varied from 3.8-21.7%. In regression analysis, factors significantly predicting the magnitude of the TOI dip were Sa,O2 dip, minimum Sa,O2, apnoea duration and rapid eye movement sleep stage. The effect of apnoea duration and sleep stage remained significant after Sa,O2 was included in the regression equation. Near-infrared spectroscopy provides a noninvasive technique for monitoring cerebral tissue saturation during obstructive sleep apnoea.

Efficacy Of Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP)In Obstructive Sleep Apnoea
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is the most common type of sleep apnoea and is caused by obstruction of the upper airway. It is characterized by repetitive pauses in breathing during sleep, despite the effort to breathe, and is usually associated with a reduction in blood oxygen saturation. These pauses in breathing, called "apnoeas" (literally, "without breath"), typically last 20 to 40 seconds...
متن کاملConsequences of obstructive sleep apnoea.
A plethora of medical consequences have been associated with the syndrome of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). These are global, affecting nearly every body function, and have been related to two key pathophysiological findings in sleep apnoea: repetitive falls in oxyhaemoglobin saturation during sleep, and recurrent arousals from sleep which terminate apnoea episodes. Sufferers of OSA may experi...
متن کاملNocturnal blood pressure during apnoeic and ventilatory periods in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea.
The exact nature of asleep blood pressure in relation to awake blood pressure is still unclear in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea. This study aimed: 1) to investigate the asleep blood pressure in both apnoeic and ventilatory periods; 2) to determine the diurnal and nocturnal factors correlated with the changes in blood pressure from apnoea to ventilatory periods during sleep. Thirty-two ...
متن کاملCirculating KL-6, a biomarker of lung injury, in obstructive sleep apnoea.
In obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), oxidative stress contributes to endothelial dysfunction in the peripheral circulation. In the lung, oxidative stress can lead to alveolar injury. The present authors hypothesised that patients with OSA would have biomarker evidence of increased alveolar wall permeability. Sleep characteristics, brachial artery flow-mediated dilation and plasma KL-6 levels were...
متن کاملApnoea characteristics across the night in severe obstructive sleep apnoea: influence of body posture.
Several studies have reported changes in apnoea characteristics across the night in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). However, the effect of body posture on these changes has not been evaluated. The purpose of this study was to assess how body posture influences sleep apnoea characteristics across the night in severe OSA. Polysomnograms of 30 patients with severe OSA who had > or = ...
