Filter by:this study aims to evaluate the subjective symptoms, clinical and radiographic signs of temporomandibular disorders related to the use of CPAP, MAD and physical therapy in the treatment of patients with obstructive sleep apnea.
a monocentric,non interventional, prospective study to compare cardiovascular risk in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea/Hypopnea Syndrome treated with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and Mandibular Advancement Orthosis.
After obtaining the approval of the hospital ethics committee, this prospective, observational study included written informed consent from 51 participants with 19<BMI<25 m/kg2 and 51 participants with BMI>40 m/kg2 undergoing an elective surgical requiring endotracheal intubation. In addition to standard monitors, an oxygen reserve index (ORI) sensor was placed and baseline values were recorded. The participants were preoxygenated until end expiratory oxygen concentration (EtO2) is reached 90%. After anesthesia induction and endotracheal intubation, the breathing circuit was not connected endotracheal tube until the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) decreased until 95%.ORİ and SpO2 values were continuously recorded. Time of tolerable apnea, ORI warning, SpO2 warning and added warning were also recorded.
The purpose of this study is to estimated prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in 4-8 year old children. To date, most studies estimating prevalence of sleep apnea in young children are based on utilizing subjective questionnaires. The few studies that have utilized objective sleep measures have tested only those children suspected of sleep apnea based on subjective questionnaires, finding prevalence in the range of 1-13%. Untreated OSA is associated with significant morbidities in children, affecting their behavior, cognitive development, cardiovascular-and cardio metabolic health, endocrine and immune function. Better understanding of prevalence of sleep apnea in young children should be beneficial. This study will help to understand the prevalence of sleep apnea in each age-group of children 4-8 years of age and whether certain groups, such as children with obesity or asthma have higher prevalence and/or more severe disease. The primary objective of this study is to get better understanding of prevalence and severity of sleep apnea in young children using objective sleep measures for all participants.
Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a growing health concern affecting up to 60 % of population with cardiovascular disease. Despite the high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality associated with this syndrome, the substantial inconvenience and cost of polysomnography recordings may delay routine evaluation. Polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard for diagnosis. However, this is a costly and time-consuming examination. Sympathoadrenergic balance obtained from the routine Holter monitoring suggesting the presence of OSAS, can enable patients to be guided and their PSGs to be primarily held.Abnormalities in nocturnal cyclical heart rate (HR) variations have previously been described in sleep-related breathing disorders. Compared with PSG, holter electrocardiogram has the advantages of pervasion, lower cost, no need for overnight hospitalization, greater similarity to normal conditions, and good compliance. The observation of changes in heart rate associated with apneic events has a potential to be used as an alternative technique for identification of subjects with OSAS. In regard to the feasibility of screening OSAS by HRV analysis by holter electrocardiogram monitoring, it has already been reported that a 24-h electrocardiographic monitoring might be useful to diagnose OSAS. It became a more feasible technique to use following the development of a convenient recorder for OSAS screening by analyzing changes in heart rate.
Objectives: Determination of the impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the cognitive function (CF) and serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6 and 1β levels in children aged 5-12 years and the effect of OSA management on these variables. Patients & Methods: 224 patients were evaluated using the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire, the NEPSY score for CF and Polysomnography (PSG) to grade OSA severity according to the Apnea/hypopnea index (AHI). Patients with adenotonsillar hypertrophy grade >2 will undergo the appropriate surgical intervention. Overweight or obese patients with mild or moderate OSAS will undergo 6-m trial of lifestyle intervention (LSI). Blood samples were obtained for ELISA estimation of cytokines' levels. At end of 6-m follow-up, all variables were re-evaluated
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect and safety of tirzepatide in participants with obstructive sleep apnea and obesity who are both unwilling or unable to use Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) therapy in GPI1 and those who are and plan to stay on PAP therapy in GPI2.
Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) is a chronic disease that lasts for at least three months and is characterized by various symptoms such as tender points, widespread pain in the musculoskeletal system, sleep disturbance and fatigue. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSAS) is a disease characterized by repeated upper airway obstruction during sleep. Sleep disorders negatively affect the lives of individuals. The prevalence of OSAS is between 1-5% in studies and it is more common in men than in women. Fatigue, anxiety, depression and sleep disturbance are also common in patients with fibromyalgia. Likewise, the presence of symptoms such as musculoskeletal pain in patients with OSAS suggests that these two diseases may be related to each other. We planned this study to show the relationship between OSAS and fibromyalgia (FM).
The research study is being done to test heated humidified high-flow air (HHF), as a treatment for OSA.
Acute ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability, and it is also one of the main reasons for the high cost of health care. The major risk factors for stroke are hypertension, atrial fibrillation, and smoking, which are the main intervention targets for primary stroke prevention. Although these recognized risk factors have been adequately treated, there are also significant differences in stroke incidence and outcome in the population. Sleep apnea is a common complication of acute ischemic stroke, characterized by upper airway obstruction and obstructive sleep apnea. Nowadays, more studies are currently investigating CPAP to promote long-term neurological recovery, improve the ability to perform activities of daily living, and reduce the recurrence of cardiovascular disease in stroke patients. However, 25%-50% of patients with sleep apnea will refuse or be intolerant of ventilation with CPAP. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) therapy is a revolutionary non-invasive respiratory support option that is widely used in NICU worldwide. This trial aims to investigate the value of different ventilation methods in reducing the rate of pulmonary infections and tracheal intubation in stroke patients. This trial is a prospective randomized cohort study, collecting patients with acute ischemic stroke in the intensive care unit of the Department of Neurology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2022.05.01 to 2023.01.31. Participants who met the inclusion criteria were subjected to polysomnography on the first day of admission, and those diagnosed with sleep apnea according to the diagnostic criteria for sleep apnea were randomly grouped. Participants were given different forms of oxygen therapy, such as usual care therapy (nasal cannula and facemask), nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP), and HFNC oxygen therapy. After one week of observation, the investigators evaluated whether there were differences in the rate of tracheal intubation and pulmonary infection between the groups, as well as the length of hospitalization, hospital costs, and neurological recovery. All enrolled patients were followed up 1 month after discharge.
