Abstract
INTRODUCTION The co-existence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), or the overlap syndrome, is common and associated with a distinct pattern of nocturnal hypoxemia and worse clinical outcomes than either disease alone. Consequently, identifying who and how to treat these patients is essential. AREAS COVERED Treatment is recommended in all patients with OSA and symptoms or systemic hypertension, but determining symptoms attributable to OSA can be challenging in patients with COPD. Treatment should be considered in asymptomatic patients with moderate to severe OSA and COPD with pulmonary hypertension and comorbid cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, especially if marked hypoxic burden. CPAP is effective, but in patients with the overlap syndrome and daytime hypercapnia, high-intensity noninvasive ventilation aiming to lower PaCO2 may have additional benefits. Additionally, in those with severe resting daytime hypoxemia, supplemental oxygen improves survival and should be added to positive airway pressure. The role of alternative non-positive airway pressure therapies in the overlap syndrome needs further study. EXPERT OPINION Both COPD and OSA are heterogeneous disorders with a wide range of disease severity and further research is needed to better characterize and prognosticate patients with the overlap syndrome to personalize treatment.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Home oxygen therapy is one of the few interventions that can improve survival in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) when administered appropriately, although it may cause side effects and be an unnecessary burden for some patients. AREAS COVERED This narrative review summarizes the current literature on the assessment of hypoxemia, different types of home oxygen therapy, potential beneficial and adverse effects, and emerging research on home oxygen therapy in COPD. A literature search was performed using MEDLINE and EMBASE up to January 2024, with additional articles being identified through clinical guidelines. EXPERT OPINION Hypoxemia is common in patients with more severe COPD. Long-term oxygen therapy is established to prolong survival in patients with chronic severe resting hypoxemia. Conversely, in the absence of chronic severe resting hypoxemia, home oxygen therapy has an unclear or conflicting evidence base, including for palliation of breathlessness, and is generally not recommended. However, beneficial effects in some patients cannot be precluded. Evidence is emerging on the optimal daily duration of oxygen use, the role of high-flow and auto-titrated oxygen therapy, improved informed decision-making, and telemonitoring. Further research is needed to validate novel oxygen delivery systems and monitoring tools and establish long-term effects of ambulatory oxygen therapy in COPD.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a common sleep disorder, poses significant challenges in perioperative management due to its complexity and multifactorial nature. With a global prevalence of approximately 22.6%, OSA often remains undiagnosed, and increases the risk of cardiac and respiratory postoperative complications. Preoperative screening has become essential in many institutions to identify patients at increased risk, and experts recommend proceeding with surgery in the absence of severe symptoms, albeit with heightened postoperative monitoring. Anesthetic and sedative agents exacerbate upper airway collapsibility and depress central respiratory activity, complicating intraoperative management, especially with neuromuscular blockade use. Additionally, OSA patients are particularly prone to opioid-induced respiratory depression, given their increased sensitivity to opioids and heightened pain perception. Thus, regional anesthesia and multimodal analgesia are strongly advocated to reduce perioperative complication risks. Postoperative care for OSA patients necessitates vigilant monitoring and tailored management strategies, such as supplemental oxygen and Positive Airway Pressure therapy, to minimize cardiorespiratory complications. Health care institutions are increasingly focusing on enhanced monitoring and resource allocation for patient safety. However, the rising prevalence of OSA, heterogeneity in disease severity, and lack of evidence for the efficacy of costly perioperative measures pose challenges. The development of effective screening and monitoring algorithms, alongside reliable risk predictors, is crucial for identifying OSA patients needing extended postoperative care. This review emphasizes a multidimensional approach in managing OSA patients throughout the perioperative period, aiming to optimize patient outcomes and minimize adverse outcomes.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Observational studies have demonstrated the association between the single-point measurement of oxygen saturation (SpO2) level and mortality in the general population. This study aimed to evaluate whether nocturnal SpO2 level could predict all-cause mortality in a community-based population. METHODS The study samples were obtained from the Sleep Heart Health Study, which included 2,280 men and 2,606 women (mean age, 63.8 ± 11.1 years). A pulse oximeter based on overnight in-home polysomnography was used to monitor SpO2 levels during total sleep time (SpO2-TOTAL). Multivariable Cox proportional hazards analysis was performed to examine the association between nocturnal SpO2 and all-cause mortality. RESULTS During the follow-up period of 10.7 ± 3.0 years, 1,110 (22.7%) people died. After adjusting for confounding factors, multivariable Cox regression analysis showed that the average SpO2-TOTAL (hazard ratio [HR] 0.93; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.90-0.96, P < .001) was associated with all-cause mortality. These findings remained stable in individuals with low and high apnea-hypopnea index levels. Additionally, maximum SpO2-TOTAL (HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.87-0.96; P = .001) and minimum SpO2-TOTAL (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97-0.99; P = .001) could predict all-cause mortality. A significant association between nocturnal hypoxemia and all-cause mortality was also observed. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight the importance of monitoring nocturnal SpO2 level and improving hypoxemia in the general populations. CITATION Yan B, Gao Y, Zhang Z, Shi T, Chen Q.

Obstructive sleep apnea heterogeneity and autonomic function: a role for heart rate variability in therapy selection and efficacy monitoring. J Sleep Res 2024; 33:e14020. [PMID: 37709966 DOI: 10.1111/jsr.14020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/07/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is a highly prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, resulting in a disturbed breathing pattern, changes in blood gases, abnormal autonomic regulation, metabolic fluctuation, poor neurocognitive performance, and increased cardiovascular risk. With broad inter-individual differences recognised in risk factors, clinical symptoms, gene expression, physiological characteristics, and health outcomes, various obstructive sleep apnea subtypes have been identified. Therapeutic efficacy and its impact on outcomes, particularly for cardiovascular consequences, may also vary depending on these features in obstructive sleep apnea. A number of interventions such as positive airway pressure therapies, oral appliance, surgical treatment, and pharmaceutical options are available in clinical practice. Selecting an effective obstructive sleep apnea treatment and therapy is a challenging medical decision due to obstructive sleep apnea heterogeneity and numerous treatment modalities. Thus, an objective marker for clinical evaluation is warranted to estimate the treatment response in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Currently, while the Apnea-Hypopnea Index is used for severity assessment of obstructive sleep apnea and still considered a major guide to diagnosis and managements of obstructive sleep apnea, the Apnea-Hypopnea Index is not a robust marker of symptoms, function, or outcome improvement. Abnormal cardiac autonomic modulation can provide additional insight to better understand obstructive sleep apnea phenotyping. Heart rate variability is a reliable neurocardiac tool to assess altered autonomic function and can also provide cardiovascular information in obstructive sleep apnea. Beyond the Apnea-Hypopnea Index, this review aims to discuss the role of heart rate variability as an indicator and predictor of therapeutic efficacy to different modalities in order to optimise tailored treatment for obstructive sleep apnea.

Sleep-disordered breathing patterns and prognosis in pulmonary arterial hypertension: A cluster analysis of nocturnal cardiorespiratory signals. Sleep Med 2024; 113:61-69. [PMID: 37984019 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.11.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/08/2023] [Indexed: 11/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common among pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients and has been associated with unfavorable outcomes. This study aims to cluster overnight cardiorespiratory signals to investigate PAH phenotypes and examining their prognostic implications. METHODS In this retrospective cohort study, we recruited consecutive PAH patients who underwent right heart catheterization and nocturnal cardiorespiratory polygraphy to evaluate SDB. Cluster analysis was employed to classify patients based on their SDB patterns. Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier curves were utilized to assess the association between cluster membership and clinical outcomes. Logistic regression was used to identify risk factors associated with the cluster at higher risk of adverse outcomes. RESULTS The study comprised 386 PAH patients, with a mean age of 44.7 ± 17.0 years, of which 46.6 % were male. Three distinct clusters of PAH patients were identified: Cluster 1 (N = 182) presented with minimal SDB, Cluster 2 (N = 125) displayed obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) without significant hypoxemia, and Cluster 3 (N = 79) exhibited predominantly severe hypoxemic burden along with comorbid OSA. Notably, patients in Cluster 3 had an independent association with an increased risk of clinical worsening (hazard ratio 1.96, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.08-3.56, P = 0.027) compared to those in Clusters 1, even after adjusting for common confounders. The rate of clinical worsening for PAH-related events and mortality was higher in Cluster 3 than in Clusters 1 and 2 (26.6 % vs. 12.6 % and 19.2 %, respectively, log-rank P = 0.024). Moreover, the left ventricular mass index was identified as an independent risk factor for Cluster 3 (odds ratios 1.01, 95 % CI 1.00-1.02, P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Patients with PAH who have nocturnal hypoxemia and OSA had worse clinical outcomes compared to those with only minimal SDB. Tailored management strategies that address both PAH and nocturnal hypoxemia may be effective in improving clinical outcomes.

ESC Heart Fail 2023; 10:3504-3514. [PMID: 37724626 PMCID: PMC10682880 DOI: 10.1002/ehf2.14526] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2023] [Revised: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 09/21/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) frequently coexist. We aimed to compare the prognostic value of different nocturnal hypoxic burden metrics in hospitalized HF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS HF patients underwent polygraphy screening for SDB in this prospective cohort. Hypoxic burden metrics assessed using pulse oximetry included time < 90% oxygen saturation (T90), proportion of total recording time < 90% oxygen saturation (TRT90), oxygen desaturation index (ODI), and mean oxygen saturation (meanSO2 ). The prespecified endpoints were the composite of cardiovascular death or admission for worsening HF. This study included 764 hospitalized HF patients, 16.5% and 36.6% of whom had obstructive and central sleep apnoea, respectively. With a median follow-up time of 2.2 years, endpoint events occurred in 410 (53.7%) patients. In univariate and multivariate analyses, T90, TRT90, and meanSO2 were substantially associated with the composite outcome, whereas ODI was not. After multivariate Cox model adjustment, patients with 5.0 ≤ T90 ≤ 52.0 min [hazard ratio (HR) 1.32, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.02-1.71, P = 0.034] or T90 > 52.0 min (HR 1.56, 95% CI: 1.21-2.02, P = 0.001) had a greater risk of the composite outcome than those with T90 < 5.0 min. The TRT90 and T90 results were similar. Compared with meanSO2 > 95%, meanSO2 < 93% (HR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.16-1.88, P = 0.002) was correlated with adverse outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The hypoxic burden metrics T90, TRT90, and meanSO2 , but not ODI, were independent predictors of cardiovascular death or readmission for worsening HF. Indicators of duration and severity, not just the frequency of nocturnal hypoxaemia, should be valued and considered for intervention to improve outcomes in HF patients.

Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate the possible risk factors of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and its impact on the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with partial laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer. Methods: A cross-sectional method was used to carry out this study. Patients who underwent partial laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer completed overnight polygraphy (PG) home sleep tests and quality of life questionnaires. The Medical Outcome Study 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) questionnaire was used to investigate the factors influencing HRQoL. Results: A total of 59 patients completed the PG tests and quality of life questionnaires, with 74.6% demonstrating evidence of OSA. There were significant differences in tumor area and neck dissection between OSA group and non-OSA groups. Based on sleep-related parameters, patients were divided into cluster 1 (n = 14) and cluster 2 (n = 45) using principal component analysis combined with K-means clustering. Two clusters had significantly different scores of body pain, general health, and health transition in SF-36 domains. Independent factors associated with general health were identified as tobacco use (OR = 4.716), alcohol use (OR = 3.193), and OSA-related condition (OR = 11.336). Conclusions: Larger tumor area and neck dissection might be associated with an increased risk for developing OSA in patients with partial laryngectomy for laryngeal cancer. OSA partially mediated the effect on physical health, including body pain, general health, and health transition. It is important to be aware of the potential impact of OSA on diminished HRQoL of these patients.

Abstract
Sleep apnea (SA) is a very prevalent sleep breathing disorder mainly characterized by intermittent hypoxemia and sleep fragmentation, with ensuing systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune deregulation. These perturbations promote the risk of end-organ morbidity, such that SA patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular, neurocognitive, metabolic and malignant disorders. Investigating the potential mechanisms underlying SA-induced end-organ dysfunction requires the use of comprehensive experimental models at the cell, animal and human levels. This review is primarily focused on the experimental models employed to date in the study of the consequences of SA and tackles 3 different approaches. First, cell culture systems whereby controlled patterns of intermittent hypoxia cycling fast enough to mimic the rates of episodic hypoxemia experienced by patients with SA. Second, animal models consisting of implementing realistic upper airway obstruction patterns, intermittent hypoxia, or sleep fragmentation such as to reproduce the noxious events characterizing SA. Finally, human SA models, which consist either in subjecting healthy volunteers to intermittent hypoxia or sleep fragmentation, or alternatively applying oxygen supplementation or temporary nasal pressure therapy withdrawal to SA patients. The advantages, limitations, and potential improvements of these models along with some of their pertinent findings are reviewed.

Abstract
Some chronic respiratory diseases can cause hypoxemia and, in such cases, long-term home oxygen therapy (LTOT) is indicated as a treatment option primarily to improve patient quality of life and life expectancy. Home oxygen has been used for more than 70 years, and support for LTOT is based on two studies from the 1980s that demonstrated that oxygen use improves survival in patients with COPD. There is evidence that LTOT has other beneficial effects such as improved cognitive function, improved exercise capacity, and reduced hospitalizations. LTOT is indicated in other respiratory diseases that cause hypoxemia, on the basis of the same criteria as those used for COPD. There has been an increase in the use of LTOT, probably because of increased life expectancy and a higher prevalence of chronic respiratory diseases, as well as greater availability of LTOT in the health care system. The first Brazilian Thoracic Association consensus statement on LTOT was published in 2000. Twenty-two years la-ter, we present this updated version. This document is a nonsystematic review of the literature, conducted by pulmonologists who evaluated scientific evidence and international guidelines on LTOT in the various diseases that cause hypoxemia and in specific situations (i.e., exercise, sleep, and air travel). These recommendations, produced with a view to clinical practice, contain several charts with information on indications for LTOT, oxygen sources, accessories, strategies for improved efficiency and effectiveness, and recommendations for the safe use of LTOT, as well as a LTOT prescribing model.

Nocturnal nasal high-flow oxygen therapy in elderly patients with concomitant chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and obstructive sleep apnea. Sleep Breath 2022; 27:1049-1055. [DOI: 10.1007/s11325-022-02702-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2022] [Revised: 07/23/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Abstract
Purpose
The coexistence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is known as “overlap syndrome” (OS). Patients with OS are usually older than patients with OSA alone, suffer from more profound oxygen desaturation during the obstructive events often accompanied by sustained nocturnal hypoventilation. Although oxygen-enriched positive airway pressure (PAP) is the treatment of choice in these patients, this therapy is often poorly tolerated particularly by the elderly. The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of nocturnal oxygen therapy via nasal high flow (NHF-OT) as a possible alternative to PAP in patients with OS.
Methods
Patients > 65 years old with OS and nocturnal respiratory failure (time spent below SaO2 90% (T90) > 30%) had cardio-respiratory monitoring performed at baseline, during NHF-OT, or during conventional oxygen therapy (COT).
Results
A total of 40 patients were enrolled in the study. NHF-OT significantly reduced the apnea–hypopnea index (AHI) in all patients compared to baseline and COT. The mean basal AHI was 25.4 ± 8.6. During COT and NHF-OT, the AHI was 19.4 ± 7 and 5.4 ± 4.6, respectively (P < 0.001) and 19 patients reached an AHI < 5 during NHF-OT. The mean nocturnal SaO2% was 86.2 ± 2.6 at baseline and at equivalent FiO2 it significantly increased to 91.8 ± 2.4 during COT and to 93.9 ± 2.5 during NHF-OT (P < 0.001). The T90% was 48.7 ± 20.1 at baseline, 16.8 ± 11.7 during COT, and 8.8 ± 8.0 during NHF-OT (P < 0.001).
Conclusions
In elderly patients with OS, nocturnal treatment with NHF-OT significantly reduces obstructive episodes and improves oxygenation. As the treatment is generally well tolerated compared to PAP, NHF-OT may be a possible alternative therapy in this subgroup of patients.

Abstract
This review presents the normal physiologic changes in ventilation during sleep and how they can be detrimental to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) in COPD lead to higher morbidity and mortality if left unrecognized and untreated. The diagnosis of SRBDs requires a high index of suspicion, as symptoms may overlap with other sleep disorders. Mortality risk is improved when patients with COPD with OSA (overlap syndrome) are treated with positive airway pressure and when long-term nocturnal noninvasive ventilation is started on chronic stable hypercapnic COPD. Treatment of isolated nocturnal oxygen desaturation has not been associated with improved survival.

Selective Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Withdrawal With Supplemental Oxygen During Slow-Wave Sleep as a Method of Dissociating Sleep Fragmentation and Intermittent Hypoxemia-Related Sleep Disruption in Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Front Physiol 2021; 12:750516.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is considered to impair memory processing and increase the expression of amyloid-β (Aβ) and risk for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Given the evidence that slow-wave sleep (SWS) is important in both memory and Aβ metabolism, a better understanding of the mechanisms by which OSA impacts memory and risk for AD can stem from evaluating the role of disruption of SWS specifically and, when such disruption occurs through OSA, from evaluating the individual contributions of sleep fragmentation (SF) and intermittent hypoxemia (IH). In this study, we used continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) withdrawal to recapitulate SWS-specific OSA during polysomnography (PSG), creating conditions of both SF and IH in SWS only. During separate PSGs, we created the conditions of SWS fragmentation but used oxygen to attenuate IH. We studied 24 patients (average age of 55 years, 29% female) with moderate-to-severe OSA [Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI); AHI4% > 20/h], who were treated and adherent to CPAP. Participants spent three separate nights in the laboratory under three conditions as follows: (1) consolidated sleep with CPAP held at therapeutic pressure (CPAP); (2) CPAP withdrawn exclusively in SWS (OSASWS) breathing room air; and (3) CPAP withdrawn exclusively in SWS with the addition of oxygen during pressure withdrawal (OSASWS + O2). Multiple measures of SF (e.g., arousal index) and IH (e.g., hypoxic burden), during SWS, were compared according to condition. Arousal index in SWS during CPAP withdrawal was significantly greater compared to CPAP but not significantly different with and without oxygen (CPAP = 1.1/h, OSASWS + O2 = 10.7/h, OSASWS = 10.6/h). However, hypoxic burden during SWS was significantly reduced with oxygen compared to without oxygen [OSASWS + O2 = 23 (%min)/h, OSASWS = 37 (%min)/h]. No significant OSA was observed in non-rapid eye movement (REM) stage 1 (NREM 1), non-REM stage 2 (NREM 2), or REM sleep (e.g., non-SWS) in any condition. The SWS-specific CPAP withdrawal induces OSA with SF and IH. The addition of oxygen during CPAP withdrawal results in SF with significantly less severe hypoxemia during the induced respiratory events in SWS. This model of SWS-specific CPAP withdrawal disrupts SWS with a physiologically relevant stimulus and facilitates the differentiation of SF and IH in OSA.
