Filter by:Following an acute COVID-19 infection, many patients suffer from long lasting physical symptoms that may greatly impair quality of life. Persisting dyspnea and other functional respiratory complaints could evoke Hyperventilation Syndrome (HVS) as a putative contributor of the long-COVID presentation in COVID-19 survivors. We aimed to assess the possible relationship between a HVS and previous acute SARS-CoV-2 infection.
For almost a century, many hypotheses have converged on the idea of altered chemosensitivity in patients suffering from hyperventilation syndrome (HVS). Given the evolution of current technical equipment and the ability to maximise true positives in HVS ( using the revised hyperventilation provocation test), it seems reasonable to investigate central and peripheral chemosensitivities in HVS subjects.
The Hyperventilation Provocation Test (HPTest) associated with end-tidal CO2 pressure (PETCO2) measurement is a diagnostic tool for idiopathic hyperventilation syndrome (HVS). However, interpretation of HPTest remains unclear regarding the relevant PETCO2 values to consider and the occurrence of subjective symptoms. This case-control study aims to identify accurate HPTest measurements for the diagnosis of HVS, regardless of symptoms occurrence.
The study aims to provide Turkish version of Nijmegen Questionnaire for the evaluation of respiratory dysfunction in asthmatic subjects. The incidence of hyperventilation syndrome in asthmatic patients can be determined with the results of the study.
Hyper Ventilation Syndrome is a frequent disease affecting adults whose diagnosis is often belated or even unrecognized due to the lack of "gold standard" criteria. Its diagnosis currently relies on the Nijmegen score associated with a PetCO2 assesment using a hyperventilation provocation test. Correlation between Nijmegen Questionnaire scores and PetCO2 appears highly variable. PtcCO2 monitoring is a noninvasive alternative method providing a continuous estimation of arterial CO2 pressure (PaCO2) which could represent an advantageous alternative to PetCO2 measurements. Several reports have demonstrated that PtcCO2 monitoring reflects more faithfully PaCO2 than PetCO2, no study have evaluated its value in this indication. The primary aim of the study is to compare the diagnostic value of PtcPCO2 monitoring with PetCO2, the method currently used. Included patient will be invited to fill in the Nijmegen questionnaire and an ambient air gas measurement will be performed. PtcCO2 (mmHg) will be simultaneously measured during hyperventilation test. Nijmegen score signs reproduced by the test will be analysed. HVS diagnosis will be assessed by usual criteria (PetCO2 <30 mmHg at the end of hyperventilation test or under the PetCO2 value at rest, Nijmegen score> 23). PtcCO2 data will be blinded interpreted later. We will compare if PetCO2 and PtcCO2 leads to the same diagnosis or not.
Hyperventilation syndrome is associated with impaired quality of life. The aim of the study is to assess the relationship between work productivity, including absenteeism and presenteeism, and the severity of hyperventilation syndrome
Most of asthmatics patients remain uncontrolled despite an inhaled steroids treatment. Chronic hyperventilation syndrome (also called Idiopathic Hyperventilation) occurs in 20 to 40% of asthmatic patients. The purpose of the study is to assess the prevalence of chronic hyperventilation syndrome in a specific population of difficult-to-treat asthmatics patients, those who receive daily high doses of inhaled steroids (≥ 1000 µg of fluticasone with an additional treatment by a long-acting beta 2-agonist (LABA) and who remain uncontrolled (Asthma control test (ACT) < 18). We plan to realize a systematic assessment of the diagnosis of chronic hyperventilation syndrome with the Nijmegen questionnaire, blood gases at rest, hyperventilation testing and Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing(CPET). We also will collect demographic information as well as information about asthma history, asthma control and treatment.
