Abstract
An emerging body of literature describes the prevalence and consequences of hypercapnic respiratory failure. While device qualifications, documentation practices, and previously performed clinical studies often encourage conceptualizing patients as having a single "cause" of hypercapnia, many patients encountered in practice have several contributing conditions. Physiologic and epidemiologic data suggest that sleep-disordered breathing-particularly obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-often contributes to the development of hypercapnia. In this review, the authors summarize the frequency of contributing conditions to hypercapnic respiratory failure among patients identified in critical care, emergency, and inpatient settings with an aim toward understanding the contribution of OSA to the development of hypercapnia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), especially obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), is commonly associated with respiratory diseases, such as COPD, asthma and interstitial lung disease. AREAS COVERED This narrative review aims to comprehensively synthesize the existing information on SDB in respiratory diseases, investigate the role of gender in this association, and highlight the importance of OSA management in improving sleep, quality of life, and disease prognosis in these specific patient populations. EXPERT OPINION Research indicates a synergistic link between OSA and chronic respiratory diseases, which leads to greater morbidity and mortality compared to each disorder alone. Given the lack of an optimal OSA screening tool for these patients, a comprehensive patient approach and overnight diagnostic sleep study are imperative. Despite the limited evidence available, it seems that gender has an impact on the prevalence, severity, and susceptibility of this coexistence. Recognizing the role of gender in the coexistence of OSA and other respiratory diseases can enhance everyday medical practice and enable clinicians to adopt a more personalized approach toward optimal screening and diagnosis of these patients.

Prevalence and clinical characteristics of sleep disorders in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Sleep Med 2023; 112:282-290. [PMID: 37950939 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleep.2023.10.034] [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: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 10/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 11/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), restless leg syndrome (RLS) and insomnia, are present in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) with varied prevalence. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate prevalence of OSA, RLS and insomnia in patients with COPD and summarize their clinical characteristics. METHODS We searched PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus for eligible articles reporting the prevalence of OSA, RLS, and insomnia in COPD patients. The Newcastle‒Ottawa scale was applied for quality assessment. Odds ratios or mean differences with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were applied for the overall prevalence calculation and clinical characteristics assessment. Sensitivity analysis, subgroup analysis and meta-regression were conducted to evaluate the heterogeneity of the results. RESULTS Sixty articles reporting the prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with COPD were included, and the prevalence of OSA, RLS, and insomnia reached 29.1 %(95%CI 27.2%-30.9 %), 21.6 %(95%CI 11.8%-33.3 %) and 29.5 %(95%CI 16.9%-44.0 %), respectively. COPD patients with OSA were characterized by male sex (OR 1.631 95 % CI: 1.231-2.161), obesity(kg/m2) (MD 4.435, 95 % CI 3.218-5.652), higher Epworth Sleepiness Scale (MD: 3.741, 95 % CI: 0.655-6.828, p = 0.018), better pulmonary function (MD 5.66, 95 % CI 3.546-7.774) and higher risks of hypertension (OR 1.933 95 % CI 1.382-2.70) and diabetes (OR 1.898 95 % CI 1.264-2.849). COPD patients with RLS were associated with a higher Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) score (MD 3.444, 95 % CI 1.880-5.008) and a longer COPD duration(year) (MD: 3.656, 95 % CI: 2.209-5.103). COPD patients with insomnia were characterized by female sex(OR 0.556, 95%CI 0.545,0.567, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Our study suggests that OSA, RLS and insomnia are common in COPD patients with specific clinical characteristics. Further studies are needed to explore the interactions between COPD and sleep disorders.

Prediction of Early and Long-Term Hospital Readmission in Patients with Severe Obesity: A Retrospective Cohort Study. Nutrients 2023; 15:3648. [PMID: 37630838 PMCID: PMC10458036 DOI: 10.3390/nu15163648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Adults with obesity have a higher risk of hospitalization and high hospitalization-related healthcare costs. However, a predictive model for the risk of readmission in patients with severe obesity is lacking. We conducted a retrospective cohort study enrolling all patients admitted for severe obesity (BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2) between 2009 and 2018 to the Istituto Auxologico Italiano in Piancavallo. For each patient, all subsequent hospitalizations were identified from the regional database by a deterministic record-linkage procedure. A total of 1136 patients were enrolled and followed up for a median of 5.7 years (IQR: 3.1-8.2). The predictive factors associated with hospital readmission were age (HR = 1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.03, p < 0.001), BMI (HR = 1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.03, p = 0.001), smoking habit (HR = 1.17, 95%CI: 0.99-1.38, p = 0.060), serum creatinine (HR = 1.22, 95%CI: 1.04-1.44, p = 0.016), diabetes (HR = 1.17, 95%CI: 1.00-1.36, p = 0.045), and number of admissions in the previous two years (HR = 1.15, 95%CI: 1.07-1.23, p < 0.001). BMI lost its predictive role when restricting the analysis to readmissions within 90 days. BMI and diabetes lost their predictive roles when further restricting the analysis to readmissions within 30 days. In conclusion, in this study, we identified predictive variables associated with early and long-term hospital readmission in patients with severe obesity. Whether addressing modifiable risk factors could improve the outcome remains to be established.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with respiratory dysfunction. It is a key risk and contributory factor in the sleep related breathing disorders, obstructive sleep apnoea/hypopnoea syndrome (OSAHS) and obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS). Weight management is an integral part of the management of these disorders, in addition to continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) and non-invasive ventilation (NIV). Untreated, these conditions are associated with a high disease burden and as treatment is effective, early recognition and referral is critical. Best practice in on-going care is multidisciplinary.

Abstract
West Virginia (WV) has the highest rates of obesity and cardiopulmonary disease in the United States (U.S.). Recent work has identified a significant care gap in WV for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This OSA care gap likely has significant health implications for the region given the high rates of obesity and cardiopulmonary disease. The purpose of this mix methods study was to identify barriers that contribute to the rural OSA care disparity previously identified in WV. Methods: This study used mixed methods to evaluate the barriers and facilitators to management of OSA at Federally Qualified Health Centers serving communities in southern WV. Focus groups were conducted at federally qualified health centers with providers serving Appalachian communities. Participants also completed the validated Obstructive Sleep Apnea Knowledge and Attitudes (OSAKA) questionnaire to gain insight into provider knowledge and beliefs regarding OSA. EMR analysis using diagnostic codes was completed at the sites to assess OSA prevalence rates. The same individual served as the interviewer in all focus group sessions to minimize interviewer variability/bias. Our team checked to ensure that the professional transcriptions were correct and matched the audio via spot checks. Results: Themes identified from the focus groups fell into three broad categories: (1) barriers to OSA care delivery, (2) facilitators to OSA care delivery, and (3) community-based care needs to optimize management of OSA in the targeted rural areas. Questionnaire data demonstrated rural providers feel OSA is an important condition to identify but lack confidence to identify and treat OSA. Evaluation of the electronic medical record demonstrates an even larger OSA care gap in these rural communities than previously described. Conclusion: This study found a lack of provider confidence in the ability to diagnose and treat OSA effectively and identified specific themes that limit OSA care in the communities studied. Training directed toward the identified knowledge gaps and on new technologies would likely give rural primary care providers the confidence to take a more active role in OSA diagnosis and management. An integrated model of care that incorporates primary care providers, specialists and effective use of modern technologies will be essential to address the identified OSA care disparities in rural WV and similar communities across the U.S. Community engaged research such as the current study will be essential to the creation of feasible, practical, relevant and culturally competent care pathways for providers serving rural communities with OSA and other respiratory disease to achieve health equity.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Hypoventilation associated with sleep disordered breathing in inpatients is associated with higher risk of morbidity, hospitalizations and death. In-hospital titration polysomnography qualifies patients for positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy and optimizes settings, but impact is unknown. This study describes a process for in-hospital sleep testing and evaluates subsequent PAP adherence and readmission. METHODS A retrospective cohort of patients with hypoventilation and in-hospital titration polysomnography with available PAP data were analyzed to determine whether PAP adherence was associated with 90-day readmission. Absolute differences were obtained using logistic regression models. Models were adjusted for body mass index, age and Elixhauser Index. PAP adherence and nonadherence were defined as ≥ 4 and < 4 hours daily average use prior to readmission or first 90-days post-discharge. RESULTS 81 patients, 50.6% male, age (mean ± SD) 61.1 ± 13.5 years were included. Comorbid sleep disorders included 91.4% with OSA and 23.5% with central sleep apnea. 28/52 (53.8%) nonadherent and 6/29 (20.7%) adherent patients had 90-day readmissions. 11 (13.6%) patients (all nonadherent) were readmitted within 2 weeks of discharge. Adjusted model showed a 35.6% (95% CI 15.9%-55.2%) reduction in 90-day readmission in adherent group compared to nonadherent (p=0.004). Similar reductions in readmission were found with adherence ≥ 50% and ≥ 70% days ≥ 4 hours. Male sex, treatment with iVAPS, and highest CO2 ≥ 60 mmHg on polysomnography were associated with largest differences in readmission rates between adherent and nonadherent patients. CONCLUSIONS Adherence to optimized PAP therapy after in-hospital titration polysomnography in patients with hypoventilation may decrease readmissions.
