Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a rapidly increasing global concern. If it remains untreated, it can lead to cardiovascular, metabolic, and psychiatric complications and may result in premature death. The efficient and effective management of OSA can have a beneficial effect and help reduce the financial burden on the health sector. There has been constant development in OSA management, and numerous options are available. The mainstay of therapy is still the conventional measures and behavioral modifications. However, in cases of failure of these modalities, surgical therapy is the only option. Numerous studies have shown that proper management of OSA has beneficial effects with good long-term outcomes.

Abstract
In this review article, we explore the interplay between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), highlighting a significant yet often overlooked comorbidity. We delve into the pathophysiological links between OSA and diabetes, specifically how OSA exacerbates insulin resistance and disrupts glucose metabolism. The research examines the prevalence of OSA in diabetic patients and its role in worsening diabetes-related complications. Emphasizing the importance of comprehensive management, including weight control and positive airway pressure therapy, the study advocates integrated approaches to improve outcomes for patients with T2DM and OSA. This review underscores the necessity of recognizing and addressing OSA in diabetes care to ensure more effective treatment and better patient outcomes.

Novel physiologic predictors of positive airway pressure effectiveness (NICEPAP) study: rationale, design and methods. Sleep Breath 2024:10.1007/s11325-024-03099-w. [PMID: 38995327 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-024-03099-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2024] [Revised: 06/10/2024] [Accepted: 06/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/13/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the primary therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA); however the effectiveness of CPAP remains suboptimal. We describe the Novel PhysIologiC prEdictors of Positive Airway Pressure Effectiveness (NICEPAP) study. Its purpose is to determine whether physiological traits of OSA contribute to CPAP effectiveness. METHODS NICEPAP (NCT05067088) is a prospective, observational cohort study conducted at an academic sleep center. Adults newly diagnosed with OSA (n = 267) are assessed for OSA traits of loop gain, arousal threshold, pharyngeal collapsibility, and muscle compensation from baseline polysomnography. We perform a comprehensive assessment of covariates relevant to CPAP adherence, efficacy, and patient-centered outcomes. Participants are followed for 12 months. Primary outcomes include (1) CPAP adherence (hours/night), (2) CPAP efficacy (apneas-hypopneas/hour), and (3) quality of life at six months measured by objective CPAP data and Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire. Secondary outcomes include sleep quality, sleepiness, insomnia, and neurocognitive function. RESULTS Data on covariates, including demographics, sleep symptoms, medical history, medications, sleep quality, OSA and treatment self-efficacy, decisional balance, and socio-economic and social and partner support, are collected using validated instruments. The analysis for primary outcomes includes a generalized linear mixed model for an outcome (e.g., CPAP adherence) with OSA traits as exposures followed by the addition of relevant covariates. CONCLUSION The findings of the NICEPAP study will inform research aimed to enhance CPAP effectiveness. Understanding the role of physiological OSA traits in CPAP effectiveness is a crucial step toward a precision medicine approach to OSA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estigate the relationship between social support, self-efficacy, coping style, and self-perceived burden and the mechanisms that underlie the action in Chinese OSA patients. METHODS Between October 2022 and June 2023,316 OSA patients from two hospitals were surveyed. Data were collected using the General Demographic Characteristics Questionnaire, Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), Self-Efficacy for Chronic Disease Scale (SECD6), and Simple Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ). Correlation analysis was performed using Pearson correlation. Regression analysis was performed using multiple linear regression analysis. The mediation effect analysis was performed using the Process macro (version 3.4.1) in SPSS. RESULTS (1)This study confirmed that social support, self-efficacy, and coping styles had significant negative predictions regarding self-perceived burden. (2)The influence of social support on self-perceived burden in OSA patients is mainly through three indirect effects: single mediation effect of self-efficacy and coping style and interlocking mediation effect of self-efficacy→coping style. CONCLUSION Social support can indirectly predict self-efficacy in OSA patients through the single mediation effect of self-efficacy and coping style and indirectly predict the self-perception burden in OSA patients through the linked mediation effects of self-efficacy and coping style.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to discern distinguishing characteristics of sleep-related breathing disorders in individuals with chronic spinal cord injury (CSCI) compared with participants without CSCI. Additionally, the study investigated factors associated with sleep-related breathing disorder severity. METHODS This is a cross-sectional analysis of 123 individuals without CSCI, 40 tetraplegics, and 48 paraplegics who underwent attended or partially supervised full polysomnography for suspected sleep-related breathing disorders in a rehabilitation center. Polysomnographic, transcutaneous capnography, and clinical data were collected and compared between the groups. RESULTS Among tetraplegics, apnea-hypopnea index ≥ 30 events/h (67.5%, P = .003), central apnea (17.5%, P = .007), and higher oxygen desaturation index (80.0%, P = .01) prevailed. Sleep-related hypoventilation was present in 15.4% of tetraplegics and 15.8% of paraplegics, compared with 3.2% in participants without CSCI (P = .05). In the group without CSCI and the paraplegic group, snoring and neck circumference were positively correlated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity. A positive correlation between waist circumference and OSA severity was identified in all groups, and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that loud snoring and waist circumference had the greatest impact on OSA severity. CONCLUSIONS Severe OSA and central sleep apnea prevailed in tetraplegic participants. Sleep-related hypoventilation was more common in tetraplegics and paraplegics than in participants without CSCI. Loud snoring and waist circumference had an impact on OSA severity in all groups. We recommend the routine implementation of transcutaneous capnography in individuals with CSCI. We underscore the significance of conducting a comprehensive sleep assessment in the rehabilitation process for individuals with CSCI. CITATION Souza Bastos P, Amaral TLD, Yehia HC, Tavares A.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy adherence rates range from 30% to 60%, yet adherent patients may still express dissatisfaction with treatment. The identification of factors affecting PAP tolerance could provide insight into its impact on adherence. METHODS Patients with obstructive sleep apnea presenting for first follow-up visit after newly initiating PAP therapy were given a 10-question PAP tolerance survey encompassing domains of psychosocial perception, practical issues, and side effects, utilizing 10-point visual analog scales. Relationships between adherence data, tolerance scores, and patient variables (demographics, sleep-related factors, comorbidities, usage data) were explored via 2-tailed t tests, multivariable regression analysis, and recursive partitioning regression trees with a significance level of P ≤ .05. RESULTS For 105 patients, tolerance scores were higher in patients considered adherent to therapy (P = .033), as were scores for individual survey questions addressing the ability to fall asleep (P = .013) and sleep through the night (P = .020). Depression positively (P = .006) and insomnia medication use negatively (P = .010) predicted tolerance score. Data-driven tolerance score cutoffs were identified to correlate with PAP adherence, with higher tolerance scores correlating with greater adherence rates. CONCLUSIONS PAP tolerance may play an important role in therapy adherence. Tolerance can be statistically defined and categorized based on prior adherence data. Its utility as a predictive tool in assessing future adherence is warranted. CITATION Tekumalla S, Plawecki A, Kaffenberger T, et al.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sleep is an important component of cardiovascular (CV) health. This review summarizes the complex relationship between sleep and CV disease (CVD). Additionally, we describe the data supporting the treatment of sleep disturbances in preventing and treating CVD. RECENT FINDINGS Recent guidelines recommend screening for obstructive sleep apnea in patients with atrial fibrillation. New data continues to demonstrate the importance of sleep quality and duration for CV health. There is a complex bidirectional relationship between sleep health and CVD. Sleep disturbances have systemic effects that contribute to the development of CVD, including hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart failure, and arrhythmias. Additionally, CVD contributes to the development of sleep disturbances. However, more data are needed to support the role of screening for and treatment of sleep disorders for the prevention of CVD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of upper airway surgery on cardiovascular function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). STUDY DESIGN A prospective, self-controlled study from 2018 to 2023. SETTING Two academic medical centers. METHODS Seventy-four patients underwent surgery for OSA, including: tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, epiglottidectomy, modified uvulopalatopharyngoplasty, maxillary expansion, and maxillomandibular advancement. Twenty-four-hour ambulatory blood pressure (BP), peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT)-based home sleep study, and sleep-related patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were captured preoperatively and at 6 months postoperatively. Paired T-tests evaluated changes in outcomes after surgery. RESULTS Forty-one patients successfully completed preoperative and postoperative assessments. Patients were generally middle-aged (43.8 ± 12.5 years), obese (BMI 33.0 ± 5.8 kg/m2), male (68%), White (71%), and had severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] 33.9 ± 29.5 events/h). The 4% oxygen desaturation index (ODI) decreased from 30.7 ± 27.1 to 12.2 ± 13.6 events/h (P < .01) after surgery. There was no significant difference in 24-h BP following surgery, though clinically meaningful reductions in nocturnal systolic (-1.95 [-5.34, 1.45] mmHg) and nocturnal diastolic (-2.30 [-5.11, 0.52] mmHg) blood pressure were observed. Stratified analysis showed patients undergoing skeletal surgery (n = 17) demonstrated larger average reductions compared to those undergoing soft tissue surgery in nocturnal systolic (-4.12 [-7.72, -0.51] vs -0.10 [-5.78, 5.58] mmHg) and nocturnal diastolic (-3.94 [-7.90, 0.01] vs -0.90 [-5.11, 3.31] mmHg) pressures. No meaningful changes were observed in PAT Autonomic Index (PAI) measurements. CONCLUSION Surgical therapy for OSA did not demonstrate statistically significant improvements in 24-h BP. However, clinically meaningful reductions in nocturnal BP were observed, particularly in skeletal surgery patients, supporting the need for larger studies of cardiovascular outcomes following OSA surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by disordered breathing during sleep and is associated with major cardiovascular complications; excess adiposity is an etiologic risk factor. Tirzepatide may be a potential treatment. METHODS We conducted two phase 3, double-blind, randomized, controlled trials involving adults with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and obesity. Participants who were not receiving treatment with positive airway pressure (PAP) at baseline were enrolled in trial 1, and those who were receiving PAP therapy at baseline were enrolled in trial 2. The participants were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the maximum tolerated dose of tirzepatide (10 mg or 15 mg) or placebo for 52 weeks. The primary end point was the change in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI, the number of apneas and hypopneas during an hour of sleep) from baseline. Key multiplicity-controlled secondary end points included the percent change in AHI and body weight and changes in hypoxic burden, patient-reported sleep impairment and disturbance, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) concentration, and systolic blood pressure. RESULTS At baseline, the mean AHI was 51.5 events per hour in trial 1 and 49.5 events per hour in trial 2, and the mean body-mass index (BMI, the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) was 39.1 and 38.7, respectively. In trial 1, the mean change in AHI at week 52 was -25.3 events per hour (95% confidence interval [CI], -29.3 to -21.2) with tirzepatide and -5.3 events per hour (95% CI, -9.4 to -1.1) with placebo, for an estimated treatment difference of -20.0 events per hour (95% CI, -25.8 to -14.2) (P<0.001). In trial 2, the mean change in AHI at week 52 was -29.3 events per hour (95% CI, -33.2 to -25.4) with tirzepatide and -5.5 events per hour (95% CI, -9.9 to -1.2) with placebo, for an estimated treatment difference of -23.8 events per hour (95% CI, -29.6 to -17.9) (P<0.001). Significant improvements in the measurements for all prespecified key secondary end points were observed with tirzepatide as compared with placebo. The most frequently reported adverse events with tirzepatide were gastrointestinal in nature and mostly mild to moderate in severity. CONCLUSIONS Among persons with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea and obesity, tirzepatide reduced the AHI, body weight, hypoxic burden, hsCRP concentration, and systolic blood pressure and improved sleep-related patient-reported outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate a possible association between the risk of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and disability in individuals with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases. METHODS Cross-sectional study was conducted with 373 individuals (313 with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular diseases and 60 healthy). Disability was assessed by the 12-item World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule (WHODAS), and the risk of OSA was assessed by STOP-BANG. Anxiety and depression symptoms, daytime sleepiness, and cognition were assessed by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), and Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). RESULTS Greater disability was found in individuals with intermediate or high risk of OSA, considering healthy individuals (p=0.03), or individuals diagnosed with arrhythmia (p<0.01) or coronary artery disease (p=0.04). A high risk of OSA and higher WHODAS scores was significant among women as well as between OSA risk categories (p<0.01). Cognitive deficit and level of education also showed differences between OSA risk categories. Age, depression, and sleepiness were also associated with the subjects' disability (p<0.01). Gamma regression model showed higher WHODAS scores in female, in those with intermediate and high risk of OSA, and in those with depressive symptoms and cognitive deficit. Age also showed a correlation with higher WHODAS scores. The presence of all investigated cardio and cerebrovascular diseases showed an increase in the WHODAS score, implying a greater disability compared to healthy individuals. CONCLUSION Moderate and high risk of OSA is associated with disability, as well as gender, age, depressive symptoms, cognitive deficit, and cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is a common comorbidity that occurs in individuals with obesity. It classically manifests with excessive daytime sleepiness, resulting in reduced quality of life, workplace productivity, and an increased risk of motor vehicle accidents. Weight gain plays an important role in its pathogenesis through worsening upper airway collapsibility, and current treatment options are targeted towards mechanically overcoming upper airway obstruction and weight loss. Continuous positive airway pressure therapy remains the most widely prescribed treatment for obstructive sleep apnea but poor tolerance is a common barrier to effective treatment. Sustainable weight loss is an important treatment option but can be difficult to achieve without bariatric surgery. The recent advances in incretin-based pharmacotherapies represent a promising avenue not only in achieving long-term weight loss but also in treating obstructive sleep apnoea and alleviating the burden of its symptoms and comorbidities.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES We performed a systematic review of long-term health outcomes of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) use in adults with obstructive sleep apnea. METHODS We updated prior systematic reviews with searches in multiple databases through January 3, 2023. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and adjusted nonrandomized comparative studies that reported prespecified long-term (mostly > 1 year) health outcomes. We assessed risk of bias, conducted meta-analyses, and evaluated strength of evidence. RESULTS We found 38 eligible studies (16 trials, 22 observational). All conclusions were of low strength of evidence given study and data limitations. RCTs found no evidence of effect of CPAP on mortality (summary effect size [ES] 0.89; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.66, 1.21); inclusion of adjusted nonrandomized comparative studies yields an association with reduced risk of death (ES 0.57; 95% CI 0.44, 0.73). RCTs found no evidence of effects of CPAP for cardiovascular death (ES 0.99; 95% CI 0.64, 1.53), stroke (ES 0.99; 95% CI 0.73, 1.35), myocardial infarction (ES 1.05; 95% CI 0.78, 1.41), incident atrial fibrillation (ES 0.89; 95% CI 0.48, 1.63), or composite cardiovascular outcomes (all statistically nonsignificant). RCTs found no evidence of effects for incident diabetes (ES 1.02; 95% CI 0.69, 1.51) or accidents (all nonsignificant) and no clinically significant effects on depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, or cognitive function. CONCLUSIONS Whether CPAP use for obstructive sleep apnea affects long-term health outcomes remains largely unanswered. RCTs and nonrandomized comparative studies are inconsistent regarding the effect of CPAP on mortality. Current studies are underpowered, with relatively short duration follow-up and methodological limitations. CITATION Balk EM, Adam GP, Cao W, Bhuma MR, D'Ambrosio C, Trikalinos TA.

Abstract
Subjects with interstitial lung disease (ILD) often suffer from nocturnal cough, insomnia, and poor sleep quality. Subjects with ILD and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) seem to have relatively mild symptoms from sleep fragmentation compared to subjects with only ILD. The overlap of ILD, OSA, and sleeping hypoxemia may be associated with poor outcome, even though there is no agreement on which sleep parameter is mostly associated with worsening ILD prognosis. Randomized controlled trials are needed to understand when positive airway pressure (PAP) treatment is required in subjects with ILD and OSA and the impact of PAP treatment on ILD progression.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition that is increasing in prevalence worldwide. Untreated OSA has a negative impact on health-related quality of life and is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Despite available data suggesting that cardiovascular risk might differ according to clinical phenotypes and comorbidities, current approaches to OSA treatment usually take a "one size fits all" approach. Identification of cardiovascular vulnerability biomarkers and clinical phenotypes associated with response to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy could help to redefine the standard treatment paradigm. The new PAP-RES (PAP-RESponsive) algorithm is based on the identification of OSA phenotypes that are likely to impact therapeutic goals and modalities. The paradigm shift is to propose a simplified approach that defines therapeutic goals based on OSA phenotype: from a predominantly "symptomatic phenotype" (individuals with high symptom burden that negatively impacts on daily life and/or accident risk or clinically significant insomnia) to a "vulnerable cardiovascular phenotype" (individuals with comorbidities [serious cardiovascular or respiratory disease or obesity] that have a negative impact on cardiovascular prognosis or a biomarker of hypoxic burden and/or autonomic nervous system dysfunction). Each phenotype requires a different PAP therapy care pathway based on differing health issues and treatment objectives.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Severe sleep apnea (SA) affects one-third of stroke patients. Sleepiness, one of the cardinal symptoms of SA, negatively impacts functional stroke outcomes. The impact of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on post-stroke sleepiness is poorly described. We aimed to compare through a propensity score matching the trajectories of self-reported sleepiness post-stroke with matched individuals including SA patients adherent or not to CPAP. PATIENTS AND METHODS Sixty five (80.2%) ischemic stroke and 16 (19.8%) TIA patients (median [Q1;Q3] age = 67.0 [58.0;74.0] years, 70.4% male, body mass index [BMI] = 26.1 [24.5;29.8] kg·m-2, admission NIHSS = 3.0 [1.0;5.0]), with polysomnography and an Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) performed within 1 year following stroke and with a follow-up ESS (delay = 236 [147;399] days) were included in the analysis. A 2:1 propensity score matching based on age, gender, BMI, and the apnea-hypopnea index was performed to identify 162 matched individuals referred for SA suspicion, free of stroke or TIA. Multivariable negative binomial regression models were performed to identify the determinants of sleepiness trajectories post-stroke. RESULTS Baseline ESS was comparable between stroke/TIA and matched individuals (median [Q1; Q3] ESS = 7 [4;10] versus 6 [4;10], p = 0.86). The range of improvement in ESS was higher in stroke patients compared to controls (∆ESS = -2 [-4;1] vs -1 [-3;2], p = 0.03). In multivariable analysis, comorbid SA and CPAP treatment did not influence trajectories of sleepiness post-stroke. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Sleepiness improvement was unexpectedly higher in stroke patients compared to matched individuals, with no significant influence of comorbid SA and CPAP on its trajectory. Sleepiness may not be primarily indicative of SA in stroke or TIA patients.

Abstract
Adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) post-stroke is often problematic, despite potential benefits. This study aimed to evaluate CPAP adherence in patients with OSA post-stroke based on the Andersen behavioral model of health services utilization. A total of 227 eligible participants were recruited from a Chinese hospital. After baseline assessment, participants were followed for 6 months to determine short-term CPAP adherence. Those with good short-term adherence were followed for an additional 6 months to explore long-term adherence and influencing factors. Short-term CPAP adherence rate was 33%. Being married or living with a partner, having an associate degree or baccalaureate degree or higher, and stronger health beliefs independently predicted short-term CPAP adherence. Only 25% of participants from the adherent group showed good long-term adherence. The factor associated with long-term CPAP adherence was participants not using alcohol. Adherence to CPAP is suboptimal among patients having OSA post-stroke. Addressing unfavorable predisposing factors and modifying health beliefs are suggested.

Residual upper airway obstruction during nocturnal noninvasive ventilation despite high positive expiratory pressure. Impact of oronasal mask to nasal mask switch. Respir Med Res 2024; 85:101083. [PMID: 38232657 DOI: 10.1016/j.resmer.2023.101083] [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: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 12/08/2023] [Accepted: 12/15/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal mask (NM) and oronasal masks (OM) can be used to provide noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Recent studies suggested that OM is the most used interface and that there is no difference in efficacy or in tolerance between OM and NM for chronic use. However, studies focusing on video laryngoscopy underlined the impact of OM in residual upper airway obstruction (UAO) under NIV. We sought to assess the real-life practice of switching from OM to NM when UAO events persist despite high EPAP levels. METHODS In an open-label single center prospective cohort study, data from files and full night polysomnography on NM and OM were collected for patients wearing OM and presenting an UAO index ≥15/h despite an EPAP level ≥ 10 cmH20. RESULTS Forty-four patients were included in the study. In 31 patients (74 %), switching to a NM reduced UAOi to ≥10/h. Interestingly, 92 % of these patients still had NM at 3 to 12 months of follow-up. Switching to a NM was also associated with a trend in paCO2 reduction and significant improvements in Epworth, sleep quality and NIV compliance. Successful interface switching was significantly associated with female gender, and a trend was observed in non-smokers. CONCLUSION As for CPAP, switching to a NM improved NIV efficacy in a selected group of patients presenting residual UAO events despite high EPAP levels. Additionally, this switch has an impact on compliance and subjective sleepiness. Thus, in patients with persisting UAO on OM, switching to a NM could be a first-line intervention before considering further investigation such as polygraphy or video laryngoscopy. We also derive an algorithm for mask allocation and adaptation in acute and chronic NIV use.

Abstract
Managing non-cardiac comorbidities in heart failure (HF) requires a tailored approach that addresses each patient's specific conditions and needs. Regular communication and coordination among healthcare providers is crucial to providing the best possible care for these patients. Poorly controlled hypertension contributes to left ventricular remodeling and diastolic dysfunction, emphasizing the importance of optimal blood pressure control while avoiding adverse effects. Among HF patients with diabetes, SGLT2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists have shown promise in reducing HF-related morbidity and mortality. Chronic kidney disease exacerbates HF and vice versa, forming the vicious cardiorenal syndrome, so disease-modifying therapies should be maintained in HF patients with comorbid CKD, even with transient changes in kidney function. Anemia in HF patients may be multifactorial, and there is growing evidence for the benefit of intravenous iron supplementation in HF patients with iron deficiency with or without anemia. Obesity, although a risk factor for HF, paradoxically offers a better prognosis once HF is established, though developing treatment strategies may improve symptoms and cardiac performance. In HF patients with stroke and atrial fibrillation, anticoagulation therapy is recommended. Among HF patients with sleep-disordered breathing, continuous positive airway pressure may improve sleep quality. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease often coexists with HF, and many patients can tolerate cardioselective beta-blockers. Cancer patients with comorbid HF require careful consideration of cardiotoxicity risks associated with cancer therapies. Depression is underdiagnosed in HF patients and significantly impacts prognosis. Cognitive impairment is prevalent in HF patients and impacts their self-care and overall quality of life.

Abstract
PURPOSE : Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is often the treatment of choice for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Short-term adherence and early perceived benefits are the best predictors of long-term adherence. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of telemonitoring in the first period of treatment with CPAP (auto-titrating PAP) on compliance and the long-term outcome. METHODS Patients aged between 18-75 years old with symptomatic severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 30) requiring CPAP therapy were included in this single-blind, single-centre, randomised, controlled trial. They were divided into 2 groups (telemonitored standard clinical care versus standard clinical care without telemonitoring). RESULTS A total of 230 patients (115 patients/group) were included (mean age 54 ± 16.6 years, BMI 32.6 ± 5.4 kg/m2, ESS 13.1 ± 6.2, AHI 47.5 ± 14.8/hr). At week 10 compliance was similar in both groups (telemonitoring vs control 6:27 and 6:35 h, respectively, p = 0.57), as were AHI (2.4; 2.4/hr, p = 0.89) and ESS (5.8; 4.9, p = 0.22). The number of contacts of a patient with a healthcare professional was significantly higher during the follow-up from week 3 until week 10 (0.25; 0.13, p = 0.03). The number of patients who could be evaluated after 1 year was equally distributed in both groups (104; 104, p = 1.00), as were compliance (6:43; 6:49 h, p = 0.59) and residual AHI (1.9; 2.2/hr, p = 0.41). CONCLUSIONS In patients with severe OSA with standard intensive follow-up during the initial weeks of CPAP therapy and good compliance, telemonitoring did not improve CPAP compliance nor the clinical outcome in the short or long term. The practical consequences can be highly relevant for patients and healthcare professionals.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE Treatment of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) with positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy has unique clinical challenges in individuals living with spinal cord injuries and diseases (spinal cord injury [SCI]/D). Interventions focused on increasing PAP use have not been studied in this population. We aimed to evaluate the benefits of a program to increase PAP use among Veterans with SCI/D and SDB. METHODS Randomized controlled trial comparing a behavioral Intervention (n = 32) and educational control (n = 31), both including one face-to-face and five telephone sessions over 3 months. The intervention included education about SDB and PAP, goal setting, troubleshooting, and motivational enhancement. The control arm included non-directive sleep education only. RESULTS Primary outcomes were objective PAP use (nights ≥4 hours used within 90 days) and sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI] at 3 months). These did not differ between intervention and control (main outcome timepoint; mean difference 3.5 [-9.0, 15.9] nights/week for PAP use; p = .578; -1.1 [-2.8, 0.6] points for PSQI; p = .219). Secondary outcomes included fatigue, depression, function, and quality of life. Only fatigue improved significantly more in the intervention versus the control group (p = .025). Across groups, more PAP use was associated with larger improvements in sleep quality, insomnia, sleepiness, fatigue, and depression at some time points. CONCLUSIONS PAP use in Veterans with SCI/D and SDB is low, and a 3-month supportive/behavioral program did not show significant benefit compared to education alone. Overall, more PAP use was associated with improved symptoms suggesting more intensive support, such as in-home assistance, may be required to increase PAP use in these patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND HYPOTHESIS Cognitive impairment is a core feature of schizophrenia that worsens with aging and interferes with quality of life. Recent work identifies sleep as an actionable target to alleviate cognitive deficits. Cardinal non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep oscillations such as sleep spindles and slow oscillations are critical for cognition. People living with schizophrenia (PLWS) and their first-degree relatives have a specific reduction in sleep spindles and an abnormality in their temporal coordination with slow oscillations that predict impaired memory consolidation. While NREM oscillatory activity is reduced in typical aging, it is not known how further disruption in these oscillations contributes to cognitive decline in older PLWS. Another understudied risk factor for cognitive deficits among older PLWS is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) which may contribute to cognitive decline. STUDY DESIGN We conducted a narrative review to examine the published literature on aging, OSA, and NREM sleep oscillations in PLWS. STUDY RESULTS Spindles are propagated via thalamocortical feedback loops, and this circuitry shows abnormal hyperconnectivity in schizophrenia as revealed by structural and functional MRI studies. While the risk and severity of OSA increase with age, older PLWS are particularly vulnerable to OSA-related cognitive deficits because OSA is often underdiagnosed and undertreated, and OSA adds further damage to the circuitry that generates NREM sleep oscillations. CONCLUSIONS We highlight the critical need to study NREM sleep in older PWLS and propose that identifying and treating OSA in older PLWS will provide an avenue to potentially mitigate and prevent cognitive decline.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea is a common type of sleep-disordered breathing associated with multiple comorbidities. Nearly a billion people are estimated to have obstructive sleep apnea, which carries a substantial economic burden, but under-diagnosis is still a problem. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the first-line treatment for OSAS. Telemedicine-based interventions (TM) have been evaluated to improve access to diagnosis, increase CPAP adherence, and contribute to easing the follow-up process, allowing healthcare facilities to provide patient-centered care. This narrative review summarizes the evidence available regarding the potential future of telemedicine in the management pathway of OSA. The potential of home sleep studies to improve OSA diagnosis and the importance of remote monitoring for tracking treatment adherence and failure and to contribute to developing patient engagement tools will be presented. Further studies are needed to explore the impact of shifting from teleconsultations to collaborative care models where patients are placed at the center of their care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To obtain a current overview of the use of mandibular advancement splints (MAS) as a therapeutic option for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in the dental profession in Northern Germany. METHODS A questionnaire was mailed to 2431 dental professionals, and 8.3% responded. Descriptive data analysis was performed on each question separately. RESULTS Most of the surveyed dentists (51.7%) estimated the success rate of MAS therapy to be higher than 75%. Analysis of the relationship between the number of splints prescribed annually and the dental specialization (p = 0.22), work experience (p = 0.14), estimated success rate of MAS therapy (p = 0.96), and discontinuation of MAS therapy (p = 0.57) revealed no significant correlations. CONCLUSION Mandibular advancement splints seem to be a safe and successful therapy for OSA. There seems to be a lack of information on the patient side and a lack of education on the dentist side.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is first-line therapy for OSA, but consistent use is required for it to be effective. Previous studies have used Medicare fee-for-service claims data (eg, device, equipment charges) as a proxy for PAP adherence to assess its effects. However, this approach has not been validated in a US commercially insured population, where coverage rules are not standardized. RESEARCH QUESTION In a commercially insured population in the United States, how well do claims-based algorithms for defining PAP adherence correspond with objective PAP device usage? STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Deidentified administrative claims data of commercially insured patients (aged 18-64 years) with OSA were linked to objective PAP therapy usage data from cloud-connected devices. Adherence was defined based on device use (using an extension of Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 90-day compliance criteria) and from claims-based algorithms to compare usage metrics and identify potential misclassifications. RESULTS The final sample included 213,341 patients. Based on device usage, 48% were adherent in the first year. Based on claims, between 10% and 84% of patients were identified as adherent (accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity ranges: 53%-68%, 12%-95%, and 26%-92%, respectively). Relative to patients who were claims-adherent, patients who were device-adherent had consistently higher usage across all metrics (mean, 339.9 vs 260.0-290.0 days of use; 6.6 vs 5.1-5.6 d/wk; 6.4 vs 4.6-5.2 h/d). Consistent PAP users were frequently identified by claims-based algorithms as nonadherent, whereas many inconsistent users were classified by claims-based algorithms as adherent. INTERPRETATION In aggregate US commercial data with nonstandardized PAP coverage rules, concordance between existing claims-based definitions and objective PAP use was low. Caution is warranted when applying existing claims-based algorithms to commercial populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The improvement of swallowing function after stroke is a significant challenge faced by patients and health care professionals. However, the current evidence synthesis of the effects of respiratory muscle training (RMT) on swallowing function is limited. OBJECTIVE To assess the effectiveness of RMT on swallowing recovery in patients undergoing stroke. METHODS The CKNI, WanFang Data, PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, Embase, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library databases were searched for studies evaluating RMT interventions' effect on swallowing outcomes. Risks of bias were evaluated using the approach recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration tool and a summary of findings table was generated using the GRADE approach. Outcomes were synthesized using a random-effects meta-analysis model. RESULTS RMT interventions reduced the risk of aspiration (SMD = 1.19; 95% CI, 0.53-1.84), the recovery process of water swallowing function (RR = 1.22; 95% CI, 1.05-1.42), and the activity of the swallowing muscles (SMD = 2.91; 95% CI, 2.22-3.61). However, there was no significant effect of RMT on the functional level of oral intake (SMD = 0.70; 95% CI, -0.03 to 1.42). CONCLUSIONS RMT can be regarded as an innovative, auxiliary means in the near future to better manage and improve swallowing function, given its improving effect on work outcomes in this review.

Abstract
Telemonitoring of obstructive sleep apnea patients is increasingly being adopted though its cost-effectiveness evidence base is scanty. This study investigated whether telemonitoring is a cost-effective strategy compared with the standard follow-up in patients with obstructive sleep apnea who are starting continuous positive airway pressure treatment. In total, 167 obstructive sleep apnea patients were randomised into telemonitoring (n = 79) or standard follow-up (n = 88), initiated continuous positive airway pressure treatment, and were followed up for 6 months. The frequencies of healthcare contacts, related costs (in USD 2021 prices), treatment effect and compliance were compared between the follow-up approaches using generalised linear models. The cost effectiveness analysis was conducted from a healthcare perspective and the results presented as cost per avoided extra clinic visit. Additionally, patient satisfaction between the two approaches was explored. The analysis showed no baseline differences. At follow-up, there was no significant difference in treatment compliance, and the mean residual apnea-hypoapnea index. There was no difference in total visits, adjusted incidence rate ratio 0.87 (0.72-1.06). Participants in the telemonitoring arm made eight times more telephone visits, 8.10 (5.04-13.84), and about 73% fewer physical healthcare visits 0.27 (0.20-0.36). This translated into significantly lower total costs for the telemonitoring approach compared with standard follow-up, -192 USD (-346 to -41). The form of follow-up seemed to have no impact on the extent of patient satisfaction. These results demonstrate the telemonitoring of patients with obstructive sleep apnea initiating continuous positive airway pressure treatment as a cost saving strategy and can be argued as a potential worthy investment.

Positive Airway Pressure Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea-Hypopnea in Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy: A Pilot Randomized Proof-of-Concept Clinical Trial. Ann Am Thorac Soc 2024; 21:803-813. [PMID: 38252423 DOI: 10.1513/annalsats.202310-863oc] [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: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2024] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Maternal obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea (OSAH) is associated with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP). OSAH treatment with positive airway pressure (PAP) in the general population lowers blood pressure (BP). However, there are limited data on the effects of PAP therapy in maternal OSAH. Objectives: Our primary objective was to assess the feasibility of recruitment to a pilot randomized trial and adherence to PAP therapy for OSAH in women with HDP. Secondary objectives included assessment of PAP effects on 24-h BP, arterial stiffness, and maternal and fetal outcomes. Methods: Women with singleton pregnancies at ⩾12 weeks' gestation and hypertension underwent home level 2 polysomnography; those with mild to moderate OSAH (apnea-hypopnea index ⩾ 5 events/h; women with severe OSAH with apnea-hypopnea index > 30 events/h and oxygen desaturation index > 30 were excluded) were randomized to either PAP or nasal dilator strip (NDS; control) therapy. After PAP education, adherence was monitored online with episodic phone or in-person support by research personnel. Twenty-four-hour BP and arterial stiffness were assessed at baseline and before delivery. Maternal and fetal outcomes were also recorded. Results: Of 105 potentially eligible participants, 67 agreed to undergo screening for OSAH over 38 months; 48 women meeting OSAH inclusion criteria were randomized to PAP (n = 27) or NDS (n = 21) therapy. Of these, 14 PAP (52%) and 13 NDS (62%) participants completed all predelivery measurements, with lack of completion due to urgent delivery (19% in the PAP group, 14% in the NDS group), PAP intolerance at initiation (19%), or other factors. Mean PAP use was 3.1 ± 2.5 h/night, with use ⩾4 h/night on 38.4 ± 33.7% of nights during 9.6 ± 4.0 weeks of treatment. BP was controlled within the target range in most participants. There were no differences in mean change in 24-hour BP or arterial stiffness measurements or in adverse maternal and fetal outcomes between the PAP and NDS groups in either intention-to-treat or per-protocol analyses. Conclusions: PAP adherence was suboptimal in this HDP cohort despite education and troubleshooting. Further work is required to identify optimal OSAH treatment strategies during pregnancy. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03309826).

Patient motivation ranked by caregivers at continuous positive airway pressure initiation is predictive of adherence and 1-year therapy termination rate. Sleep Breath 2024; 28:835-839. [PMID: 38102507 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-023-02965-3] [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: 06/26/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE In patients diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) is effective in reducing symptoms and improving quality of life. However, poor mid- to long-term adherence and high termination rates are a problem. We asked whether or not patient motivation at CPAP initiation was associated with 15-day and 1-year CPAP adherence and termination rates. METHODS In this nationwide multicenter observational study, individual patient motivation for achieving CPAP adherence was subjectively evaluated at the time of CPAP set-up by the home-care provider's technician on a simple scale (low, average, good, very good). Then, adherence and CPAP termination rates were objectively monitored via the home-care provider's CPAP remote monitoring platform at 15 days and 1 year. RESULTS A total of 10,450 adults with OSA initiating CPAP were included by 36 centers. CPAP adherence at day 15 was significantly different between the low and the very good motivation groups: 5.4 [3.2; 6.9] hours and 6.0 [4.2; 7.3] hours per night respectively. In the 72.0% of patients using CPAP at 1 year, CPAP adherence was 5.2 [3.1; 6.7] and 5.5 [4.0; 7.0] hours per night in the groups with low and very good motivation respectively. Therapy termination rates at 1 year were 14.6% in the low motivation group and 8.0% in the very good motivation group. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that motivation of patients with OSA estimated by caregivers at CPAP initiation using a simple four-item ranking is associated with CPAP adherence and primary therapy termination rates during the first year of treatment.

Abstract
PURPOSE The relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and bladder pain syndrome/interstitial cystitis (BPS/IC) remains uncertain. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the frequency of BPS/IC seen in women diagnosed with OSA and in women without OSA. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included a patient group of women with OSA and a control group of women without OSA. All the study participants were administered the Berlin Questionnaire, Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Interstitial Cystitis Symptom Index (ICSI), and the Interstitial Cystitis Problem Index (ICPI). Differences between the women with OSA and the control group were examined. RESULTS The study sample consisted of 46 women with OSA and 46 controls. No significant difference was determined between the OSA and control groups concerning age and body mass index (p = 0.810, p = 0.060, respectively). The ESS was greater in the OSA group than in the control group (p = 0.007). The median (IQR) ICSI was 8 (4-11.25) in women with OSA and 5 (1.75-7.15) in controls (p < 0.001). The median (IQR) ICPI was 7 (6.00-10.25) in women with OSA and 6 (1.75-8.00) in controls (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The ICSI symptoms and subsequent problems in daily life caused by the symptoms (ICPI) were experienced at a higher rate in patients with OSA than in the control group. There is an association between BPS/IC and OSA.

Abstract
(1) Background: Home sleep apnea testing, known as polysomnography type 3 (PSG3), underestimates respiratory events in comparison with in-laboratory polysomnography type 1 (PSG1). Without head electrodes for scoring sleep and arousal, in a home environment, patients feel unfettered and move their bodies more naturally. Adopting a natural position may decrease obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) severity in PSG3, independently of missing hypopneas associated with arousals. (2) Methods: Patients with suspected OSA performed PSG1 and PSG3 in a randomized sequence. We performed an additional analysis, called reduced polysomnography, in which we blindly reassessed all PSG1 tests to remove electroencephalographic electrodes, electrooculogram, and surface electromyography data to estimate the impact of not scoring sleep and arousal-based hypopneas on the test results. A difference of 15 or more in the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) between tests was deemed clinically relevant. We compared the group of patients with and without clinically relevant differences between lab and home tests (3) Results: As expected, by not scoring sleep, there was a decrease in OSA severity in the lab test, similar to the home test results. The group of patients with clinically relevant differences between lab and home tests presented more severe OSA in the lab compared to the other group (mean AHI, 42.5 vs. 20.2 events/h, p = 0.002), and this difference disappeared in the home test. There was no difference between groups in the shift of OSA severity by abolishing sleep scoring in the lab. However, by comparing lab and home tests, there were greater variations in supine AHI and time spent in the supine position in the group with a clinically relevant difference, either with or without scoring sleep, showing an impact of the site of the test on body position during sleep. These variations presented as a marked increase or decrease in supine outcomes according to the site of the test, with no particular trend. (4) Conclusions: In-lab polysomnography may artificially increase OSA severity in a subset of patients by inducing marked changes in body position compared to home tests. The location of the sleep test seems to interfere with the evaluation of patients with more severe OSA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and glucose metabolism remains controversial. This study investigates the relationship between OSA and incident type 2 diabetes (DM) and prediabetes (preDM), as well as the effect of long-term CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) treatment. METHODS Follow-up study in a retrospective clinical cohort of patients with OSA and randomly selected controls. Data on incident DM and preDM as well as CPAP were obtained from hospital records. The relationship between baseline OSA and incident DM was examined using COX regression models. RESULTS Three hundred and fifty-six patients, 169 with OSA and 187 controls were followed for a median of 98 months; 47 patients (13.2%) developed DM and 43 (12.1%) developed preDM. The 5-year cumulative incidence of DM was 10.7% (6.5-13.9%). 87% of subjects with preDM in the baseline sample progressed to incident DM. It is shown that body mass index (BMI), nocturnal hypoxia and apnea hypopnea index (AHI) are risk factors for the development of DM and that CPAP reduces this risk. CONCLUSIONS Patients with OSA have a higher risk of developing DM. The risk factors involved are BMI, nocturnal hypoxia and AHI. Regular long-term CPAP use was associated with a decreased risk.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is a major symptom of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Traditional polysomnographic (PSG) measures only partially explain EDS in OSA. This study analyzed traditional and novel PSG characteristics of two different measures of EDS among patients with OSA. METHODS Sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (>10 points defined as "risk of dozing") and a measure of general sleepiness (feeling sleepy ≥ 3 times/week defined as "feeling sleepy"). Four sleepiness phenotypes were identified: "non-sleepy," "risk of dozing only," "feeling sleepy only," and "both at risk of dozing and feeling sleepy." RESULTS Altogether, 2083 patients with OSA (69% male) with an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 5 events/hour were studied; 46% were "non-sleepy," 26% at "risk of dozing only," 7% were "feeling sleepy only," and 21% reported both. The two phenotypes at "risk of dozing" had higher AHI, more severe hypoxemia (as measured by oxygen desaturation index, minimum and average oxygen saturation [SpO2], time spent < 90% SpO2, and hypoxic impacts) and they spent less time awake, had shorter sleep latency, and higher heart rate response to arousals than "non-sleepy" and "feeling sleepy only" phenotypes. While statistically significant, effect sizes were small. Sleep stages, frequency of arousals, wake after sleep onset and limb movement did not differ between sleepiness phenotypes after adjusting for confounders. CONCLUSIONS In a large international group of patients with OSA, PSG characteristics were weakly associated with EDS. The physiological measures differed among individuals characterized as "risk of dozing" or "non-sleepy," while "feeling sleepy only" did not differ from "non-sleepy" individuals.

Abstract
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is frequent among patients with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and can persist despite the optimal correction of respiratory events (apnea, hypopnea and respiratory efforts), using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or mandibular advancement device. Symptoms like apathy and fatigue may be mistaken for EDS. In addition, EDS has multi-factorial origin, which makes its evaluation complex. The marketing authorization [Autorisation de Mise sur le Marché (AMM)] for two wake-promoting agents (solriamfetol and pitolisant) raises several practical issues for clinicians. This consensus paper presents recommendations of good clinical practice to identify and evaluate EDS in this context, and to manage and follow-up the patients. It was conducted under the mandate of the French Societies for sleep medicine and for pneumology [Société Française de Recherche et de Médecine du Sommeil (SFRMS) and Société de Pneumologie de Langue Française (SPLF)]. A management algorithm is suggested, as well as a list of conditions during which the patient should be referred to a sleep center or a sleep specialist. The benefit/risk balance of a wake-promoting drug in residual EDS in OSAHS patients must be regularly reevaluated, especially in elderly patients with increased cardiovascular and psychiatric disorders risks. This consensus is based on the scientific knowledge at the time of the publication and may be revised according to their evolution.

Ann Am Thorac Soc 2024; 21:651-657. [PMID: 38241012 DOI: 10.1513/annalsats.202310-908oc] [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: 10/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) effectively treats sleep-disordered breathing, including central sleep apnea (CSA) and coexisting obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).Objectives: The prospective, multicenter European READ-ASV (Registry on the Treatment of Central and Complex Sleep-Disordered Breathing with Adaptive Servo-Ventilation) registry investigated the effects of first-time ASV therapy on disease-specific quality of life (QoL).Methods: The registry enrolled adults with CSA with or without OSA who had ASV therapy prescribed between September 2017 and March 2021. The primary endpoint was change in disease-specific QoL (Functional Outcomes of Sleep Questionnaire [FOSQ]) score between baseline and 12-month follow-up. Sleepiness determined using the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score was a key secondary outcome. For subgroup analysis, participants were classified as symptomatic (FOSQ score < 17.9 and/or ESS score > 10) or asymptomatic (FOSQ score ⩾ 17.9 and/or ESS score ⩽ 10).Results: A total of 801 individuals (age, 67 ± 12 yr; 14% female; body mass index, 31 ± 5 kg/m2; apnea-hypopnea index, 48 ± 22/h) were enrolled; analyses include those with paired baseline and follow-up data. After 12 ± 3 months on ASV, median (interquartile range) FOSQ score had increased significantly from baseline (+0.8 [-0.2 to 2.2]; P < 0.001; n = 499). This was due to a significantly increased FOSQ score in symptomatic participants (+1.69 [0.38 to 3.05]), with little change in asymptomatic individuals (+0.11 [-0.39 to 0.54]). The median ESS score also improved significantly from baseline during ASV (-2.0 [-5.0 to 0.0]; P < 0.001).Conclusions: ASV treatment of CSA with or without coexisting OSA was associated with improvements in disease-specific QoL and daytime sleepiness, especially in individuals with sleep-disordered breathing symptoms before therapy initiation. These improvements in patient-reported outcomes support the use of ASV in this population.

Abstract
Study Objectives Observational studies link untreated obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with adverse outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The first step in addressing OSA is a clinical assessment. However, given competing demands and a lack of high-quality evidence, it is unclear how often such assessments occur. We explored the documentation of OSA assessment among patients with COPD in primary care, and the patient and provider characteristics associated with these assessments. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study of patients with clinically diagnosed COPD at 2 primary care practices. We abstracted charts to determine whether providers assessed OSA, defined as documentation of symptoms, treatment, or a referral to sleep medicine. We performed multivariable mixed-effects logistic regression to assess the associations of patient and provider characteristics with OSA assessment. Results Among 641 patients with clinically diagnosed COPD, 146 (23%) had OSA assessed over a 1-year period. Positive associations with OSA assessment included body mass index ≥ 30 (odds ratio [OR] 3.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.8-7.0), pulmonary subspecialist visits (OR 3.9, 95%CI 2.4-6.3), and a prior sleep study demonstrating OSA documented within the electronic medical record (OR 18.0, 95%CI 9.0-35.8). Notably, patients identifying as Black were less likely to have OSA assessed than those identifying as White (OR 0.5, 95%CI 0.2-0.9). Conclusions Providers document an assessment of OSA among a quarter of patients with COPD. Our findings highlight the importance of future work to rigorously test the impact of assessment on important health outcomes. Our findings also reinforce that additional strategies are needed to improve the equitable delivery of care.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study is to examine vocal fatigue and impairment, gastroesophageal symptoms, dysphagia risk, and sleep-related quality of life in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who have been treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) compared to those who have not received treatment. METHODS Fifty-four participants diagnosed with OSA completed an online research form. Of these, 29 were receiving CPAP treatment, while 25 were not undergoing treatment. The following instruments were used: Vocal Fatigue Index, Voice Handicap Index, Gastroesophageal symptoms, Eating Assessment Tool, and Quebec Sleep Questionnaire. RESULTS The group that received CPAP treatment had significantly lower scores in the functional domain and total Voice Handicap Index. They also experienced fewer symptoms of regurgitation, reduced daytime sleepiness, fewer nocturnal symptoms, and better emotional and social interactions in their quality of life compared to the untreated group. There were no significant differences in voice fatigue and dysphagia risk between the groups. CONCLUSION Individuals treated with CPAP experience reduced vocal impairment, fewer regurgitation symptoms, and improvement in the emotional and social interactions domains of their quality of life compared to individuals without treatment.

Abstract
We assessed the relation between air pollution, weather, and adherence to positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy in a retrospective community-based repeated-measures study of adults with obstructive sleep apnea who purchased PAP devices from a registered provider between 2013 and 2017 (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) and had at least one day of data. Daily PAP-derived data, air pollution, and weather databases were linked using postal code. The exposures were mean nocturnal (8:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m.) (i) residential concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2 ), fine particulate matter <=2.5 μm (PM2.5 ), ozone (O3 ), and Air Quality Health Index (AQHI), and (ii) temperature, relative humidity, and barometric pressure. Covariates in the main model were demographics, season, exposure year, and PAP therapy mode. We analysed 8148 adults (median age of 54 years and 61% men) and 2,071,588 days of data. Based on daily data, the median (interquartile range) daily PAP usage was 416 (323-487) min. Using mixed-effect regression analyses to incorporate daily data and clustering by individuals, we found a statistically significant decrease in adherence for increased levels of NO2 , PM2.5 , and AQHI. The largest effect was for NO2 : a decrease in daily PAP use while comparing the highest versus lowest quartiles (Qs) was 3.4 (95% confidence interval [CI] 2.8-3.9) min. Decreased PAP adherence was also associated with increased temperature (Q4 versus Q1: 2.6 [95% CI: 1.5-3.7] min) and decreased barometric pressure (Q1 versus Q4: 2.0 [95% CI 1.5-2.5] min). We observed modest but statistically significant acute effects of air pollution and weather on daily PAP adherence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and stroke affect each other. In this review, we summarized the effect of OSA on the onset and recurrence of stroke, the prognosis, and the treatment of poststroke patients with OSA. METHODS Pubmed/MEDLINE were searched through May 2023 to explore the relationship between OSA and stroke. The relevant papers included OSA and stroke, OSA and recurrent stroke, and the prognosis and treatment of poststroke patients with OSA. RESULTS The results showed that OSA can promote the onset and recurrence of stroke and that OSA may adversely affect the prognosis of poststroke patients. The application of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and other treatments may benefit poststroke patients with OSA, though the long term effects of treatment are not well documented. CONCLUSION Both the onset and recurrence of stroke closely correlated with OSA, but the specific mechanisms remain unclear. Further studies should be carried out to explore effective treatments in patients with stroke and OSA.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Although treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is effective, adherence is often poor. Understanding the patient perspective is needed to inform adherence-promoting interventions. This qualitative study assessed the experiences, preferences, facilitators, and barriers surrounding PAP therapy for the management of OSA in patients from adolescence to older adulthood. METHODS Eligible participants ages 19 and older were identified from administrative health care claims; adolescent participants ages 12-18 and their parents/caregivers were identified via electronic health records of a tertiary sleep specialty clinic at a large children's hospital. Forty English-speaking patients and 10 parents of adolescents diagnosed with OSA and prescribed PAP therapy completed semistructured 60-minute telephone interviews conducted by a trained facilitator. Common themes and illustrative quotes were identified. RESULTS Themes around OSA diagnosis, initiating OSA treatment, learning about OSA/PAP, decision to start PAP, PAP benefits and challenges, and reasons for nonadherence were identified. Participants suggested design and delivery changes to improve PAP devices. Issues unique to adolescents and their parents were discussed. CONCLUSIONS The unique perspectives of patients regarding PAP therapy should be taken into consideration when developing interventions to increase PAP adherence and improve clinical care. Based on identified themes, opportunities for intervention may exist at all stages of care, from diagnosis to treatment initiation. Involving partners, parents, and other caregivers in PAP therapy may be beneficial for optimizing adherence. CITATION Simon SL, Stephenson JJ, Haynes K, et al.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects patient health and public welfare. Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is the preferred treatment of OSA, but therapy adherence rates remain suboptimal. Current literature demonstrates telemonitoring interventions to support improved PAP therapy adherence. PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of interval telemonitoring of PAP therapy data at 2 and 4 weeks after treatment initiation in patients with moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea with as-needed patient support and troubleshooting by telephone consultation. METHODOLOGY Ninety-nine participants were enrolled in this study, 50 in the control group and 49 in the intervention group. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using SPSS 28.0 software. The primary outcome of interest was 90-day PAP adherence. RESULTS Mean PAP adherence scores diverged at 90 days after PAP initiation, with the intervention group having a significantly higher mean score (M = 49.24, SD = 38.18) relative to the control group (M = 36.38, SD = 37.69). Likewise, continued PAP usage at 90 days after therapy initiation diverged between participant groups, with the intervention group having a significantly higher mean score (M = 89.80, SD = 30.58) relative to the control group (M = 72.00, SD = 45.36). CONCLUSIONS The intervention resulted in significantly higher mean PAP adherence and a greater percentage of participants demonstrating continued PAP usage at 90 days after therapy initiation but did not result in a statistically significant increase in what is considered and defined as "good PAP adherence" (adherence of ≥70%). IMPLICATIONS Data-triggered telemonitoring protocols offer supplementary support to patients in need and improve PAP adherence.

Abstract
Through their effects on sleep duration, bedroom environments, and pollen allergies, seasonal variations may impact positive airway pressure (PAP) adherence. We analyzed daily PAP telemonitoring data from 25,846 adults (median age 64 years, 67.8% male) treated with PAP for at least 4 months [mean (standard deviation, SD) duration of PAP: 5.5 years (SD 4.1)] to examine seasonal changes in PAP adherence, leaks, and residual apnea-hypopnea index. We demonstrate a significant decrease in PAP adherence in June compared to January (mean (SD): 0.37 (1.54) h/night) that achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) of 30 min in 13.9% of adults. Furthermore, we provide novel data supporting the association of rising temperatures with seasonal changes in PAP use. Indeed, the most pronounced decline in PAP adherence was observed during the hottest days, while PAP adherence was only slightly reduced during the coolest days of June. Clinicians should be aware of seasonal changes in PAP adherence that are likely to be exacerbated by climate change.

Abstract
Background The concomitant rise in the prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and frailty among the elderly population has been linked to an increase in mortality rates. Despite continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) being the gold standard treatment for OSA, its impact on incident frailty remains inadequately explored. Methods In this cohort study, we analyzed data from 1290 patients diagnosed with OSA, aged 60 years and older. A subset of 71 patients who demonstrated high adherence to CPAP therapy were categorized as the CPAP group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed at a 1:4 ratio, matching for variables such as age, gender, body mass index (BMI), and sleep apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), to establish a non-CPAP group for comparison. The FRAIL scale was utilized to evaluate the frailty status of participants. Logistic regression analysis examined the relationship between CPAP therapy and incident frailty, as well as its individual components, in elderly patients with OSA. Results During a median follow-up period of 52 months, incident frailty was observed in 70 patients (19.7%). Patients with OSA receiving CPAP therapy exhibited a lower incidence of frailty compared to those not receiving CPAP (11.26% vs 21.83%, P=0.045). In the multivariate model, CPAP therapy was significantly correlated with a reduced risk of incident frailty (OR = 0.36, 95% CI, 0.15-0.88; P = 0.025). Subcomponent analyses revealed that CPAP was associated with a lower risk of fatigue (OR=0.35, 95% CI, 0.19-0.63; P < 0.001), resistance (OR = 0.32, 95% CI, 0.14-0.74; P=0.008), and weight loss (OR = 0.38, 95% CI, 0.19-0.75; P = 0.007). Conclusion CPAP therapy was associated with a reduced risk of incident frailty among elderly patients with OSA.

Abstract
Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is highly prevalent and may be linked to cardiovascular disease in a bidirectional manner. The Taiwan Society of Cardiology, Taiwan Society of Sleep Medicine and Taiwan Society of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine established a task force of experts to evaluate the evidence regarding the assessment and management of SDB in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), hypertension and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The GRADE process was used to assess the evidence associated with 15 formulated questions. The task force developed recommendations and determined strength (Strong, Weak) and direction (For, Against) based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient values and preferences, and resource use. The resulting 11 recommendations are intended to guide clinicians in determining which the specific patient-care strategy should be utilized by clinicians based on the needs of individual patients.

The effects of social support and support types on continuous positive airway pressure use after 1month of therapy among adults with obstructive sleep apnea. Sleep Health 2024; 10:69-74. [PMID: 38007302 DOI: 10.1016/j.sleh.2023.10.013] [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: 10/19/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 10/24/2023] [Indexed: 11/27/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between perceived social support and continuous positive airway pressure remains understudied among individuals with obstructive sleep apnea. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine if baseline perceived social support and subtypes predict regular continuous positive airway pressure use after 1month of therapy. METHODS Adults with obstructive sleep apnea initiating continuous positive airway pressure therapy were recruited from sleep clinics in New York City. Demographics, medical history, and comorbidities were obtained from patient interview and review of medical records. Objective continuous positive airway pressure adherence data was collected at the first clinical follow-up. RESULTS Seventy-five participants (32% female; non-Hispanic Black 41%; mean age of 56 ± 14years) provided data. In adjusted analyses, poorer levels of overall social support, and subtypes including informational/emotional support, and positive social interactions were associated with lower continuous positive airway pressure use at 1month. Relative to patients reporting higher levels of support, participants endorsing lower levels of overall social support, positive social interaction and emotional/informational support had 1.6 hours (95% CI: 0.5,2.7, hours; p = .007), 1.3 hours (95% CI: 0.2,2.4; p = .026), and 1.2 hours (95% CI: 0.05,2.4; p = .041) lower mean daily continuous positive airway pressure use at 1month, respectively. CONCLUSION Focusing on social support overall and positive social interaction particularly, could be an effective approach to improve continuous positive airway pressure adherence in patients at risk of suboptimal adherence.

CANADIAN JOURNAL OF RESPIRATORY THERAPY : CJRT = REVUE CANADIENNE DE LA THERAPIE RESPIRATOIRE : RCTR 2024; 60:28-36. [PMID: 38314346 PMCID: PMC10838662 DOI: 10.29390/001c.92080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024]
Abstract
Background Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is prescribed to patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A commonly used definition for PAP therapy adherence is based upon the minimum requirements to receive Medicare coverage in the US, defined as PAP usage of four or more hours per night on 70 percent of nights for at least 30 consecutive days. However, little evidence exists to support this definition for PAP therapy adherence. Therefore, the present study sought to determine the efficacy of the present definition of PAP therapy adherence on longitudinal outcomes in patients with OSA, using objectively measured PAP device usage time. Methods An exploratory longitudinal, retrospective, randomized chart review was done to assess clinical outcomes between patients with OSA who were defined as PAP therapy adherent (n=50) and non-adherent (n=50) during an eight-year observation period. Results No significant differences were shown between groups for mortality, hospitalizations, or development of co-morbidities during the observation period. However, logistic regression showed significantly higher odds of adherence in male patients compared to female patients (OR=8.519; 95%CI=1.301-55.756; p=0.025) and significantly lower odds of adherence in patients with higher normal (OR=0.039; 95%CI=0.005-0.392; p=0.003), mild excessive (OR=0.039; 95%CI=0.003-0.517; p=0.014), and severe excessive (OR=0.088; 95%CI=0.012-0.635; p=0.016) daytime sleepiness compared to patients with lower normal daytime sleepiness. An increasing number of hospitalizations also corresponded with a significant decrease in odds of being adherent (OR=0.741; 95%CI=0.551-0.995; p=0.046). Conclusion The present study supports a steadily growing body of literature calling for more consideration and evidence to support a definition of PAP therapy adherence that is clinically meaningful.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES The sleep apnea multi-level surgery (SAMS) randomized clinical trial showed surgery improved outcomes at 6 months compared to ongoing medical management in patients with moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who failed continuous positive airway pressure therapy. This study reports the long-term outcomes of the multi-level surgery as a case series. METHODS Surgical participants were reassessed >2 years postoperatively with the same outcomes reported in the main SAMS trial. Primary outcomes were apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), with secondary outcomes including other polysomnography measures, symptoms, quality of life, and adverse events. Long-term effectiveness (baseline to long-term follow-up [LTFU]) and interval changes (6 month to LTFU) were assessed using mixed effects regression models. Control participants were also reassessed for rate of subsequent surgery and outcomes. RESULTS 36/48 (75%) of surgical participants were reevaluated (mean (standard deviation)) 3.5 (1.0) years following surgery, with 29 undergoing polysomnography. AHI was 41/h (23) at preoperative baseline and 21/h (18) at follow-up, representing persistent improvement of -24/h (95% CI -32, -17; p < 0.001). ESS was 12.3 (3.5) at baseline and 5.5 (3.9) at follow-up, representing persistent improvement of -6.8 (95% CI -8.3, -5.4; p < 0.001). Secondary outcomes were improved long term, and adverse events were minor. Interval change analysis suggests stability of outcomes. 36/43 (84%) of the control participants were reevaluated, with 25 (69%) reporting subsequent surgery, with symptom and quality of life improvements. CONCLUSION Multi-level upper airway surgery improves OSA burden with long-term maintenance of treatment effect in adults with moderate or severe OSA in whom conventional therapy failed.
