Apnea and arousal are modulated with sleep stage, and swallowing may interfere with respiratory rhythm in infants. We hypothesized that swallowing itself would display interaction with sleep state. Concurrent polysomnography and measurement of swallowing allowed time-matched analysis of 3,092 swallows, 482 apneas, and 771 arousals in 17 infants aged 1-34 wk. The mean rates of swallowing, apnea,...
A patient with obstructive sleep apnea was monitored five times during three years while his weight fluctuated within a range of 26 kg. The number of apneas per hour of sleep varied from 59.6 at 111 kg of weight to 3.1 at 85 kg. The relation between apneas per hour of sleep and body weight was a logarithmic function. A modest decrease in weight was thus associated with a disproportionally large...
Obesity is a primary risk factor for the development of obstructive sleep apnea in humans, but the impact of obesity on central sleep apnea is less clear. Given the comorbidities associated with obesity in humans, we developed techniques for long-term recording of diaphragmatic EMG activity and polysomnography in obese mice to assess breathing patterns during sleep and to determine the effect o...
The mechanisms by which obstructive apneas produce intermittent surges in arterial pressure remain poorly defined. To determine whether termination of obstructive apneas produce peripheral vasoconstriction, we assessed forearm blood flow during and after obstructive events in sleeping patients experiencing spontaneous upper airway obstructions. In all subjects, heart rate was monitored with an ...
Complex sleep apnea is the term used to describe a form of sleep disordered breathing in which repeated central apneas (>5/hour) persist or emerge when obstructive events are extinguished with positive airway pressure (PAP) and for which there is not a clear cause for the central apneas such as narcotics or systolic heart failure. The driving forces in the pathophysiology are felt to be ventila...
OBJECTIVE Methylxanthines and doxapram are currently used to treat apnea of prematurity but are not fully effective and often present undesirable side effects. The present study examines whether exposure to an odor known to modulate the infant's respiratory rate could reduce the frequency of apneic spells. METHOD Fourteen preterm newborns born at 24 to 28 gestational weeks presenting recurren...
We determined the effects on breathing of transient ventilatory overshoots and concomitant hypocapnia, as produced by pressure support mechanical ventilation (PSV), in intact and carotid body chemoreceptor denervated (CBX) sleeping dogs. In the intact dog, PSV-induced transient increases in tidal volume and hypocapnia caused apnea within 10-11 s, followed by repetitive two-breath clusters separ...
The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of the different states of alertness on 1) nonnutritive swallowing (NNS) frequency, 2) the relationship between NNS and the respiratory cycle, and 3) the association of NNS with spontaneous apneas. Recordings of sleep states, diaphragm and laryngeal constrictor electrical activity, nasal flow, electrocardiogram, respiratory inductance pleth...
Recurrent apneas are important causes of hospitalization and morbidity in newborns. Gestational stress (GS) compromises fetal brain development. Maternal stress and anxiety during gestation are linked to respiratory disorders in newborns; however, the mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we tested the hypothesis that repeated activation of the neuroendocrine response to stress during gestation is s...
