Filter by:This investigation tested the hypothesis that children with obstructive sleep apnea have an increased pharmacodynamic sensitivity to the miotic and respiratory depressant effects of the prototypic μ-opioid agonist remifentanil.
OBJECTIVES: PRIMARY: To analyze the cognitive alterations in children with Obstructive Sleep Apnea OSA in different age groups and changes at 12 months after treatment with a protocol based on usual clinical practice. DESIGN: Observational, longitudinal, prospective, and multicenter study.
The principal objective is to evaluate the effect of CPAP treatment on blood pressure (BP) in normotensive patients with dipper circadian pattern with sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS). The secondary objectives are: i) To evaluate the prevalence of the different circadian patterns of BP in ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) ii) To establish the relationship between CPAP compliance and BP response; iii) Identify which ABPM variables and biomarkers are related to BP response; iv) Evaluate changes in the biomarkers' profile with the CPAP treatment. Methodology: Open-label, parallel, prospective, randomized and controlled trial including normotensive patients diagnosed with severe SAHS without significant somnolence. 64 patients with dipper circadian pattern will be included and will be randomized to receive CPAP (32) or conservative treatment (32). ABPM and blood sample collection will be performed at the beginning of the study and at 3 months.
Using a multi-method sleep assessment approach, the purpose of this study is to examine the bidirectional relationship between sleep and sedentary behavior in the context of a randomized trial investigating the impact of sedentary behavior reduction on blood pressure.
RATIONALE of the project. Adults with Down syndrome (DS) present severe sleep disorders that are under recognized by caregivers. Aging in DS population increases the prevalence of both Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and Alzheimer´s disease (AD) dementia at much higher rates than in the general population. AD increases the risk of sleep disturbances and OSA, which in turn worsen cognitive performance and behavioral function. Our hypothesis is that adults with DS and AD dementia will present a higher prevalence of sleep disorders (sleep disruption, sleep circadian disorders and OSA) than in DS without dementia. There are no data evaluating nocturnal sleep in adults with DS with AD dementia. The main objective is to evaluate the prevalence of sleep disturbances in adult subjects with DS and AD dementia, by means of subjective and objectives sleep measures.
In previous review study, it was hypothesized that a comprehensive rehabilitation can combine both local pharyngeal muscle exercise and systemic cardiopulmonary rehabilitation for the OSA patients with oropharyngeal muscle dysfunction or ventilator drive instability. To develop a comprehensive rehabilitation model is of innovative care strategy in this study.
The sole objective in this study is to evaluate if routine amounts of opioids given for tonsillectomy in children have greater amounts of respiratory depression in children with documented obstructive sleep apnea when compared with patients that do not have obstructive sleep apnea
Despite the advances in the treatment of acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE), the readmissions rates and cardiovascular events remain very high. In this context, it is possible that other potential risk factors may influence the poor prognosis of the ACPE. One of these potential candidates is Obstructive Sleep Apnea(OSA). This study was designed to evaluate the impact of OSA treatment with CPAP in consecutive patients with ACPE. The primary outcome will be to evaluate the impact of CPAP on the recurrence of ACPE in the 1-year follow-up.
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy in children with OSA. Children and adolescents aged 6 to 18 years old with a diagnosis of moderate-to-severe OSA requiring CPAP therapy will be recruited. In phase 1 study, eligible subject will be recruited for HFNC therapy titration with PSG to assess treatment efficacy. After titration, if HFNC therapy is shown to be effective, the participants will be recruited into the phase 2 intervention period to evaluate the compliance and quality of life with HFNC therapy. At baseline and follow-up visits, neurobehavioural and quality of life surveys will be completed, compliance data will be obtained.
This is a prospective pilot to investigate the effect of 3D printer customized CPAP masks on the comfort of patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
