چکیده
Non-apnoeic oxygen desaturation related to rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in a patient with hypothyroidism, obesity, respiratory failure, and cardiac failure was improved by treatment with nasal continuous positive airway pressure of 10 cm H2O.

Heart block in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea: pathogenetic factors and effects of treatment.
Heart block during sleep has been described in up to 10% of patients with obstructive sleep apnoea. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between sleep stage, oxygen desaturation and apnoea-associated bradyarrhythmias as well as the effect of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP)/nasal bi-level positive airway pressure (nBiPAP) therapy on these arrhythmias in patie...
متن کاملBenefits of nocturnal nasal CPAP in patients with cystic fibrosis.
Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) often hypoventilate during sleep with marked falls in oxygen saturation (SaO2%). This occurs most commonly during REM sleep, when there is a reduction in rib cage excursion and a fall in end-expiratory lung volume (EELV). The aim of this study was to examine the effect of nocturnal nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) on SaO2 and the respiratory d...
متن کاملEffects of long-term nocturnal nasal ventilation on spontaneous breathing during sleep in neuromuscular and chest wall disorders.
Nocturnal nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is an effective means of normalizing awake blood gases in patients with respiratory insufficiency due to neuromuscular or chest wall dysfunction. However, little attention has been paid to the effects of long-term ventilation on spontaneous breathing during sleep in such patients. The purpose of this study was to determine wheth...
متن کاملUpdate in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in children.
The prevalence of OSAS in children is 0.7-3%, with peak incidence in pre-schoolers. It is characterised by partial or complete upper airway obstruction during sleep, causing intermittent hypoxia. Both anatomical (severe nasal obstruction, craniofacial anomalies, hypertrophy of the pharyngeal lymphoid tissue, laryngeal anomalies, etc.) and functional factors (neuromuscular diseases) predispose t...
متن کاملThe Effect of Non-nutritive Sucking on Transcutaneous Oxygen Saturation in Neonates under the Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP)
BackgroundSeveral beneficial effects of non-nutritive sucking in infants, including the physiological stability, relaxation, better transition from tube feeding to oral feeding have been reported. But its effect on oxygen saturation in neonates under the Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (NCPAPو (is not so clear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of non-nutritive sucking on tr...
