[PMID: 37406462 DOI: 10.1016/j.jclinane.2023.111196] [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: 04/23/2023] [Revised: 06/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/27/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine if a nasal positive airway pressure (nasal CPAP) mask would decrease the number of hypoxemic events in obese and obstructive sleep apnea patients undergoing colonoscopy. DESIGN Single-center prospective randomized controlled trial. SETTING Tertiary academic center. PATIENTS We enrolled 109 patients with diagnosis of obesity and/or obstructive sleep apnea scheduled to undergo colonoscopy under propofol general anesthesia without planned tracheal intubation. INTERVENTION Patients were randomly allocated (1:1 ratio) to receive supplementary oxygen at a flow of 10 L/min, either through a nasal CPAP or a simple facemask. MEASUREMENTS The primary endpoint was the difference in the mean percentage of time spent with oxygen saturation below 90% between the two groups. Secondary outcomes included the need for airway maneuvers/interventions, average SpO2 during the case, duration and severity of oxygen desaturation, incidence and duration of procedural interruptions, and satisfaction and tolerance scores. MAIN RESULTS 54 were allocated to the simple face mask and 55 to the nasal CPAP mask arms, respectively. A total of 6 patients experienced a hypoxemic event. Among these patients, the difference in the percentage of time spent with oxygen saturation below 90% was not clinically relevant (p = 1.0). However, patients in the nasal CPAP group required less chin lift (20% vs. 42.6%; p = 0.01) and oral cannula insertion (12.7% vs.29.6%; p = 0.03). The percentage of patients with at least one airway maneuver was higher in the simple face mask arm (68.5% vs. 41.8%; p = 0.005). Patient tolerance to device score was lower in the nasal CPAP group (8.85 vs. 9.56; p = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS A nasal CPAP did not prevent hypoxemia and should not be used routinely for colonoscopy in obese or OSA patients if a simple face mask is an alternative therapy. However, potential advantages of its use include fewer airway maneuvers or interventions, which may be desirable in certain clinical settings.

Abstract
This work proposes a method utilizing oxygen saturation (SpO2) for predicting incident hypertension in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We extracted time domain features and frequency domain features from the SpO2 signal. For prediction, we employed several machine learning algorithms to establish the 3-year risk prediction model in the Chinese Sleep Health Study, including 250 subjects without baseline hypertension who underwent sleep monitoring. The proposed random forest model achieved an accuracy of 84.4%, a sensitivity of 77.0%, a specificity of 91.5% and an area under the receiver operator characteristic of 84.3% using 10-fold crossvalidation. We show that the model outperformed two sleep medicine specialists using clinical experience to predict hypertension. Furthermore, we applied the prediction results in the public Sleep Heart Health Study database and showed the subjects who were predicted to have hypertension would be at a higher risk in 4-6 years. This work shows the potential of SpO2 signal during sleep for the prediction of hypertension and could be beneficial to the early detection and timely treatment of hypertension in OSA patients.Clinical Relevance-There is no prediction model for incident hypertension in OSA patients in clinical practice. Most patients are unaware of health complexity, symptoms and risk factors before hypertension. Establishing an accurate prediction model can effectively provide early intervention for OSA patients and reduce the prevalence of hypertension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The predictive factors of blood pressure (BP) response to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) are still being explored. We aimed to assess the antihypertensive effect of CPAP considering the obstructive respiratory event-triggered BP surge profiles in 130 subjects with severe OSA and untreated hypertension. METHODS Nocturnal BP was monitored continuously and synchronised with polysomnography. Event-triggered BP surge profiles were studied: BP surge as the value of event-related systolic BP (SBP) elevation; BP index as the number of BP surge events of ≥10 mm Hg per hour. Patients were then divided into two groups according to the median BP index (high and low BP surge groups) and assigned to 4 weeks of CPAP. Changes in BPs and plasma biomarkers were compared. After the initial evaluation, patients with a better BP response in the high BP surge group were then followed up for the second evaluation at 24 months. RESULTS Overall, a modest decrease was observed in both office and asleep BPs at the 4-week follow-up; however, BPs dropped more markedly in patients in the high BP surge group than those in the low BP surge group, in both office SBP (5.3 mm Hg vs 2.2 mm Hg, p=0.003) and diastolic BP (4.0 mm Hg vs 1.2 mm Hg, p<0.001), especially the asleep SBP (9.0 mm Hg vs 2.1 mm Hg, p<0.001). For 30 cases in the high BP surge group, optimal BP control was achieved in 60.0% of patients and BP<140/90 mm Hg reached up to 83.3% after 24 months of CPAP. Linear regression revealed that BP index was significantly associated with BP decrease during CPAP treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggested that high event-triggered BP surge was a sensitive predictor of BP response to CPAP in patients with severe OSA and untreated hypertension.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES To investigate the association between the periodicity of distribution of intermittent hypoxemia (IH) and hypertension in adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and search for an index to quantify the association. METHODS Samples were derived from two cross-sectional studies: The Sleep Heart Health Study (SHHS) including 3991 adults with age 64.7 ± 10.9 years; and the Chinese Changgung Sleep Health Study (CSHS) including 906 adults with age 59.5 ± 12.4 years. Spectral analysis of peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) was performed and the relative spectral power (PFR) in the frequency band of 0.011-0.037 Hz (PFR0.011-0.037Hz) was extracted to quantify the periodic distribution of IH. Multiple logistic regression models were used to calculate the partially and fully adjusted odd ratios for PFR0.011-0.037Hz. RESULTS PFR0.011-0.037Hz was significantly higher in the hypertension group than non-hypertension group (44.4% ± 0.3% vs. 42.1% ± 0.3%, p < 0.001 in SHHS and 57.4% ± 0.7% vs. 50.5% ± 0.8%, p < 0.001 in CSHS). In the fully adjusted model, individuals in the SHHS with PFR0.011-0.037Hz in the highest quintiles had an odd ratio of 1.33 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-1.67]. Similarly, the group in the CSHS with PFR0.011-0.037Hz in the highest quintile had an odd ratio of 3.08 (95% CI 1.80-5.28). CONCLUSIONS We developed an IH distribution measure which is strongly associated with hypertension independent of multiple confounding variables. The finding suggests that the periodic distribution of sleep related upper airway obstructions is an essential hypertension characterizing feature.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Polysomnograms (PSGs) collect a plethora of physiologic signals across the night. However, few of these PSG data are incorporated into standard reports, and hence, ultimately, under-utilized in clinical decision making. Recently, there has been substantial interest regarding novel alternative PSG metrics that may help to predict obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)-related outcomes better than standard PSG metrics such as the apnea-hypopnea index. We systematically review the recent literature for studies that examined the use of alternative PSG metrics in the context of OSA and their association with health outcomes. METHODS We systematically searched EMBASE, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews for studies published between 2000 and 2022 for those that reported alternative metrics derived from PSG in adults and related them to OSA-related outcomes. RESULTS Of the 186 initial studies identified by the original search, data from 31 studies were ultimately included in the final analysis. Numerous metrics were identified that were significantly related to a broad range of outcomes. We categorized the outcomes into 2 main subgroups: (1) cardiovascular/metabolic outcomes and mortality and (2) cognitive function- and vigilance-related outcomes. Four general categories of alternative metrics were identified based on signals analyzed: autonomic/hemodynamic metrics, electroencephalographic metrics, oximetric metrics, and respiratory event-related metrics. CONCLUSIONS We have summarized the current landscape of literature for alternative PSG metrics relating to risk prediction in OSA. Although promising, further prospective observational studies are needed to verify findings from other cohorts, and to assess the clinical utility of these metrics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a heterogeneous sleep disorder often comorbid with metabolic diseases, and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is one of them. Although apnea hypopnea index (AHI) is currently the diagnostic criteria for OSA severity, a controversial relationship between AHI and T2DM has been found. On the other hand, the duration of apnea-hypopnea events has been shown to be a useful metric for predicting mortality. This study aimed to test whether average respiratory event duration was associated with prevalence of T2DM. METHODS Patients referred to the sleep clinic were recruited in the study. Baseline clinical characteristics and polysomnography parameters including average respiratory event duration were collected. The association of average respiratory event duration with the prevalence of T2DM was evaluated by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. RESULTS A total of 260 participants were enrolled, and 92 (35.4%) had T2DM. Univariate analysis revealed that age, body mass index (BMI), total sleep time, sleep efficiency, history of hypertension, and shorter average respiratory event duration were associated with T2DM. In multivariate analysis, only age and BMI remained significant. While average respiratory event duration was insignificant in multivariate analysis, subtype event analysis showed that shorter average apnea duration was both significant in univariate (OR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.92-0.98) and multivariate analyses (OR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.91-0.99). Neither average hypopnea duration nor AHI was associated with T2DM. Significant association (OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.12-1.25) was observed between shorter average apnea duration and lower respiratory arousal threshold after multivariate adjustment. However, causal mediation analysis revealed no mediating effect of arousal threshold on average apnea duration and T2DM. CONCLUSION The average apnea duration may be a useful metric in the diagnosis of OSA comorbidity. Shorter average apnea duration indicating poor sleep quality and augmented autonomic nervous system responses might be the potential pathological mechanisms leading to T2DM.

Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly preventable disease accompanied by multiple comorbid conditions. Despite the well-established cardiovascular and neurocognitive sequelae with OSA, the optimal metric for assessing the OSA severity and response to therapy remains controversial. Although overnight polysomnography (PSG) is the golden standard for OSA diagnosis, the abundant information is not fully exploited. With the development of deep learning and the era of big data, new metrics derived from PSG have been validated in some OSA consequences and personalized treatment. In this review, these metrics are introduced based on the pathophysiological mechanisms of OSA and new technologies. Emphasis is laid on the advantages and the prognostic value against apnea-hypopnea index. New classification criteria should be established based on these metrics and other clinical characters for precision medicine.

[PMID: 36152624 DOI: 10.1016/j.cmpb.2022.107120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Revised: 08/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Many sleep recording software used in clinical settings have some tools to automatically analyze the blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) signal by detecting desaturations. However, these tools are often inadequate for scientific research as they do not provide SpO2 signal-based parameters which are superior in the estimation of sleep apnea severity and related medical consequences. In addition, these software require expensive licenses and they lack batch analysis tools. Thus, we developed the first freely available automatic blood oxygen saturation analysis software (ABOSA) that provides sophisticated SpO2 signal-based parameters and enables batch analysis of large datasets. METHODS ABOSA was programmed with MATLAB. ABOSA automatically detects desaturation and recovery events from the SpO2 signals (EDF files) and calculates numerous parameters, such as oxygen desaturation index (ODI) and desaturation severity (DesSev). The accuracy of the ABOSA software was evaluated by comparing its desaturation scorings to manual scorings in Kuopio (n = 1981) and Loewenstein (n = 930) sleep apnea patient datasets. Validation was performed in a second-by-second manner by calculating Matthew's correlation coefficients (MCC) and median differences in parameter values. Finally, the performance of the ABOSA software was compared to two commercial software, Noxturnal and Profusion, in 100 patient subpopulations. As Noxturnal or Profusion does not calculate novel desaturation parameters, these were calculated with custom-made functions. RESULTS The agreements between ABOSA and manual scorings were great in both Kuopio (MCC = 0.801) and Loewenstein (MCC = 0.898) datasets. However, ABOSA slightly overestimated the desaturation parameter values. The median differences in ODIs were 0.8 (Kuopio) and 0.0 (Loewenstein) events/h. Similarly, the median differences in DesSevs were 0.02 (Kuopio) and 0.01 (Loewenstein) percentage points. In a second-by-second analysis, ABOSA performed very similarly to Noxturnal and Profusion software in both Kuopio (MCCABOSA = 0.807, MCCNoxturnal = 0.807, MCCProfusion = 0.811) and Loewenstein (MCCABOSA = 0.904, MCCNoxturnal = 0.911, MCCProfusion = 0.871) datasets. Based on Noxturnal and Profusion scorings, the desaturation parameter values were similarly overestimated compared to ABOSA. CONCLUSIONS ABOSA is an accurate and freely available software that calculates both traditional clinical parameters and novel parameters, provides a detailed characterization of desaturation and recovery events, and enables batch analysis of large datasets. These are features that no other software currently provides making ABOSA uniquely suitable for scientific research use.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an underdiagnosed illness linked to essential hypertension (HTN), resistant hypertension (r-HTN), and cardiovascular disease (CVD). This review provides updates on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and treatments of OSA-associated HTN. Recent Findings Mild sleep apnea increases the risk for HTN. Eighty-nine percent of young patients aged 18–35 with HTN not attributed to secondary causes have underlying OSA. Home sleep studies are noninferior to formal polysomnography for OSA diagnosis. Nocturnal oxygen desaturation rate is positively correlated with HTN severity. Gut microbiome neo-colonization in response to high-fat diet cravings in patients with OSA alters immune function and worsens HTN. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors and probiotics show newfound potential for OSA-associated HTN treatment. OSA recognition improves hospital outcomes after a STEMI. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) transcription increases in a dose-dependent manner to hypoxia, and HIFs are strongly linked to cancer growth. Summary OSA and HTN are comorbid conditions with adversely connected pathophysiology including sympathetic hyperactivity, gut dysbiosis, proinflammation, endothelial damage, rostral fluid shifts, pharyngeal collapse, intravascular fluid retention, nocturnal energy expenditure, and metabolic derangements. The dose–response effect of OSA on HTN severity challenges blood pressure (BP) control, so those with refractory HTN should be screened for OSA.

Abstract
Measurement methods with graded complexity for use in the lab as well as for home sleep testing (HST) are available for the diagnosis of sleep apnea, and there are different classification systems in existence. Simplified HST measurements, which record fewer parameters than traditional four- to six-channel devices, can indicate sleep apnea and can be used as screening tool in high-prevalence patient groups. Peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) is a technique which can be suitable for the diagnosis of sleep apnea in certain cases. Different measurement methods are used, which has an influence on the significance of the results. New minimal-contact and non-contact technologies of recording and analysis of surrogate parameters are under development. If they are validated by clinical studies, it will be possible to detect sleep apnea in need of treatment more effectively. In addition, this could become a solution to monitor the effectiveness of such treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and obesity are both directional risk factors of hypertension. Chronic intermittent hypoxemia (IH) is a commonly observed pathophysiological mechanism involved in multiple comorbidities of OSA. However, their interactions are not well understood in children. This study aimed to investigate the associations of IH indexes (oxygen desaturation index 3% [ODI3], mean peripheral oxygen saturation [SpO2], least SpO2, and time with SpO2 < 85%), apnea-hypopnea index, and weight status with hypertension in a sample of pediatric OSA patients. METHODS The medical records of 365 pediatric OSA patients were retrospectively reviewed in this cross-sectional study. Demographics, anthropometrics, standard in-laboratory polysomnography, and nocturnal blood pressure were collected. Multivariate logistic regression with forward selection was used to identify independent predictors of hypertension. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that ODI3 (odds ratio [OR] = 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01-1.03) and body mass index z-score (OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.12-1.60) were independent continuous predictors of pediatric hypertension, whilst severe OSA (OR = 2.62, 95% CI = 1.60-4.29) and overweight/obesity (OR = 2.63, 95% CI = 1.59-4.34) were independent categorical predictors. Traditional risk factors including male sex (OR = 2.33, 95% CI = 1.02-5.33), late childhood/adolescence (OR = 1.98, 95% CI = 1.01-3.88), and overweight/obesity (OR = 2.97, 95% CI = 1.56-5.67) combined with sleep hypoxemia (least SpO2 ≤ 95%) (OR = 2.24, 95% CI = 1.16-4.04) predicted hypertension (R 2 = 0.21) in the severe IH subgroup (n = 205), while the no/mild IH subgroup (n = 160) had an entirely different predictor, severe OSA (OR = 3.81, 95% CI = 1.49-9.74) (R 2 = 0.07). CONCLUSION The close relationships among IH, overweight/obesity, and hypertension highlight the importance of reducing IH and body weight in children with OSA.

Polysomnographic Phenotypes of Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Incident Type 2 Diabetes: Results from the DREAM Study. Ann Am Thorac Soc 2021; 18:2067-2078. [PMID: 34185617 PMCID: PMC8641817 DOI: 10.1513/annalsats.202012-1556oc] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2020] [Accepted: 06/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Rationale: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with cardiovascular disease and incident type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Seven OSA phenotypes, labeled on the basis of their most distinguishing polysomnographic features, have been shown to be differentially associated with incident cardiovascular disease. However, little is known about the relevance of polysomnographic phenotypes for the risk of T2DM. Objectives: To assess whether polysomnographic phenotypes are associated with incident T2DM and to compare the predictive value of baseline polysomnographic phenotypes with the Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI) for T2DM. Methods: The study included 840 individuals without baseline diabetes from a multisite observational U.S. veteran cohort who underwent OSA evaluation between 2000 and 2004, with follow-up through 2012. The primary outcome was incident T2DM, defined as no diagnosis at baseline and a new physician diagnosis confirmed by fasting blood glucose >126 mg/dL during follow-up. Relationships between the seven polysomnographic phenotypes (1. mild, 2. periodic limb movements of sleep [PLMS], 3. non-rapid eye movement and poor sleep, 4. rapid eye movement and hypoxia, 5. hypopnea and hypoxia, 6. arousal and poor sleep, and 7. combined severe) and incident T2DM were investigated using Cox proportional hazards regression and competing risk regression models with and without adjustment for baseline covariates. Likelihood ratio tests were conducted to compare the predictive value of the phenotypes with the AHI. Results: During a median follow-up period of 61 months, 122 (14.5%) patients developed incident T2DM. After adjustment for baseline sociodemographics, fasting blood glucose, body mass index, comorbidities, and behavioral risk factors, hazard ratios among persons with "hypopnea and hypoxia" and "PLMS" phenotypes as compared with persons with "mild" phenotype were 3.18 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.53-6.61] and 2.26 (95% CI, 1.06-4.83) for incident T2DM, respectively. Mild OSA (5 ⩽ AHI < 15) (vs. no OSA) was directly associated with incident T2DM in both unadjusted and multivariable-adjusted regression models. The addition of polysomnographic phenotypes, but not AHI, to known T2DM risk factors greatly improved the predictive value of the computed prediction model. Conclusions: Polysomnographic phenotypes "hypopnea and hypoxia" and "PLMS" independently predict risk of T2DM among a predominantly male veteran population. Polysomnographic phenotypes improved T2DM risk prediction comared with the use of AHI.

Non-dipping nocturnal blood pressure correlates with obstructive sleep apnoea severity in normotensive subjects and may reverse with therapy. ERJ Open Res 2021; 7:00338-2021. [PMID: 34409095 PMCID: PMC8365144 DOI: 10.1183/23120541.00338-2021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is strongly associated with systemic hypertension, but there are limited data on the relationship with blood pressure (BP) in normotensive subjects. Here, we examined the relationship of OSA with nocturnal BP in a documented diurnal normotensive cohort, explored potential intermediate pathways and assessed the effects on BP of continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) therapy. Methods 65 males referred for assessment of possible OSA and normotensive on 24-hour BP monitoring underwent overnight inpatient polysomnography (age 41±7 years, body mass index (BMI) 34±6 kg·m−2, apnoea–hypopnoea index (AHI) 14 (interquartile range 5–26)). Urine and serum were assessed for markers of sympathetic activation, renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system activity, oxidative stress, endothelial function and systemic inflammation. In a subset of patients, 24-hour BP monitoring was repeated after CPAP therapy. Results Within this normotensive cohort, night-time systolic and diastolic BP and nocturnal BP dip were highest in the fourth OSA severity quartile (p<0.05). Nocturnal BP dip correlated with AHI (r=−0.327, p<0.05) and oxygen desaturation index (ODI) (r=−0.371, p<0.05), but only ODI was an independent predictor of BP dip (B=–0.351, p<0.01) and non-dipping status (B=0.046, p<0.05). Overnight urinary norepinephrine correlated with nocturnal systolic BP (r=0.387, p<0.01) with a trend towards correlation with systolic dipping (p=0.087). In 20 CPAP-treated patients, night-time systolic BP decreased (p<0.05) and mean nocturnal BP dip increased (p≤0.05). Conclusion In this normotensive cohort, OSA severity was associated with higher nocturnal BP, which improved following CPAP therapy, and intermittent hypoxia was the most important OSA-related variable in this relationship. There is a strong association in a normotensive cohort between OSA and nocturnal blood pressure, with intermittent hypoxia as an important mechanistic pathwayhttps://bit.ly/2SFvWiB

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the association between a novel integrated event-based and hypoxemia-based parameter of polysomnography (PSG), hypoxemic load or HL100, and fasting blood glucose (FBG) and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels. METHODS Adult patients, who underwent an in-lab PSG at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics with FBG or HbA1c levels, were included. Event-based parameter and hypoxemia-based parameter data were derived. HL100, defined as the integrated area of desaturation between the 100% oxygen saturation and the measured saturation levels during sleep divided by the total sleep time, was calculated by Python software. Demographic data and glycemic parameters within 1 year prior to PSG (FBG and HbA1c) were retrieved from chart review. Spearman correlation analysis and stepwise backward regression analysis were performed to determine independent predictors of FBG and HbA1c levels. RESULTS Of the 467 patients who underwent an in-lab PSG, 218 had FBG levels, 84 had HbA1c levels, and 118 had both values. All event-based and hypoxemia-based parameters, including HL100, were significantly correlated to FBG and HbA1c levels. Stepwise backward regression analyses, adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and diabetes status, revealed that log HL100 was significantly related to FBG (B = 23.9, p = 0.010), but none of log event-based or hypoxemia-based parameters were found to be significantly related HbA1c levels. CONCLUSIONS HL100 was shown to be an independent predictor of FBG in this cohort, implying that any degree of desaturation below 100% could adversely affect glucose metabolism. HL100 may be useful for interpretation of sleep studies, risk stratification, and patient management purposes in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Diagnosis of sleep apnoea was performed in sleep laboratories with polysomnography. This requires a room with supervision and presence of technologists and trained sleep experts. Today, clinical guidelines in most countries recommend home sleep apnoea testing with simple systems using six signals only. If criteria for signal quality, recording conditions, and patient selection are considered, then this is a reliable test with high accuracy. RECENT FINDINGS Recently diagnostic tools for sleep apnoea diagnosis become even more simple: smartwatches and wearables with smart apps claim to diagnose sleep apnoea when these devices are tracking sleep and sleep quality as part of new consumer health checking. Alternative and new devices range from excellent diagnostic tools with high accuracy and full validation studies down to very low-quality tools which only result in random diagnostic reports. Due to the high prevalence of sleep apnoea, even a random diagnosis may match a real disorder sometimes. SUMMARY Until now, there are no metrics established how to evaluate these alternative algorithms and simple devices. Proposals for evaluating smartwatches, smartphones, single-use sensors, and new algorithms are presented. New assessments may help to overcome current limitations in sleep apnoea severity metrics.

The rate of decrease in oxygen desaturation during severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is correlated with subjective excessive daytime sleepiness. Sleep Breath 2020; 25:1285-1291. [PMID: 33099726 DOI: 10.1007/s11325-020-02223-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2020] [Revised: 09/20/2020] [Accepted: 10/13/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To explore factors that influence subjective excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). METHODS Patients with snoring seen at the Sleep Medicine Center of The Affiliated Huaian No.1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between October 2018 and November 2019 were included in this study. All patients underwent polysomnography (PSG). Noninvasive frequency-domain analysis was used to assess the autonomic nervous system regulation of the heart, with the low frequency (LF)/high frequency (HF) power ratio used to represent the sympathetic-parasympathetic balance. Daytime sleepiness was evaluated by the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS). Overnight apnea episodes were included for analyses. The rate of pulse oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) decrease was measured as the change in the percentage of SpO2 per second after obstructive apnea and was expressed as the oxygen desaturation rate (ODR). RESULTS A total of 101 patients with severe OSAS were enrolled in this study and were further divided into two groups: the EDS group (ESS > 10, n = 52) and the non-EDS group (ESS ≤ 10, n = 49). The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), respiratory effort-related arousals (RERAs), and LF/HF power ratio were significantly higher in the EDS group than in the non-EDS group (AHI: 69.9 ± 14.5 vs. 57.9 ± 16.1 events/h; RERAs: 42.2 ± 16.7 vs. 30.4 ± 13.7 events/h; LF/HF power ratio: 2.9 ± 0.8% vs. 2.4 ± 0.9%, all p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that after adjusting for covariates expected to affect this relationship, ESS scores were correlated with ODR (β = 0.520, p < 0.001) and LF/HF power ratio (β = 0.155, p = 0.028), rather than with the traditional sleep-disordered breathing parameters. CONCLUSIONS Compared with the traditional PSG parameters, both ODR and an increased LF/HF power ratio were more closely related to daytime sleepiness, especially ODR.
