Inflammatory Markers in Infants With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is a common disorder in children (2-3%). OSAS in turn, is associated with significant behavioral, learning, and heart problems. Adenotonsillectomy (T&A, meaning the removal of tonsils and adenoids) is the most common treatment for the problem .Diagnosis of OSAS in children is based on overnight polysomnography (sleep study). Recent studies suggest that upper airway and systemic inflammatory changes exists in school-age children and adults with OSAS, and that anti inflammatory therapy can improve respiratory parameters during sleep and reduce adenoid size, similar to surgery. However, there are no data in the literature on inflammatory changes in infants with the disorder. Healthcare resources utilization, a sensitive marker for diseases is consumed by young children (<3y) with OSAS more then healthy children, from their first year of life We hypothesize that infants and young children with OSAS present local inflammatory changes of the airways as well as systemic inflammation (in the blood or urine) that contribute to the learning, growing and heart associated medical problems. The Aims of the present study are to characterize the local and systemic inflammatory changes of young children with OSAS, and to evaluate their associated medical problems at diagnosis and after therapy (T&A) If indeed inflammation is "responsible" for the development of OSAS at such a young age it should be reduced following therapy (i.e. T&A). In such a case bio-markers may become a part of the algorithms for diagnosis and follow up of such patients.

The Effect of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment on Dizziness, Vertigo

Sleep ApneaDizziness1 more

Obstructive Sleep Apnea may cause dizziness or vertigo through hypoxia of the vestibular nuclei in the brain. Treating sleep apnea may improve dizziness or vertigo.

French Cohort Study of Chronic Heart Failure Patients With Central Sleep Apnoea Eligible for Adaptive...

Central Sleep ApneaHeart Failure

The purpose of this study is to determine the predictive factors of poor compliance to sleep disordered breathing therapy in chronic heart failure patients treated for central sleep apnea. To characterize nocturia pathophysiology associated with SDB in this population. To use telemonitoring data to define predictive factors of poor compliance.

Effect of Catheter-based Radiofrequency Ablation Therapy in Patient With Therapy-resistant Hypertension...

Therapy-resistant Hypertension and Sleep Apnea

The aim of this prospective single-center study is to evaluate sympathetic nervous system directly measured by microneurography, 24-hour blood pressure, endothelial function, vascular compliance, quality of life and platelet adhesion in patients with sleep apnea syndrome (defined by a complaint of excessive daytime sleepiness, an Epworth sleepiness score>8[10], and an apnea/hypopnea index (AHI>15/h) before and after catheter-based radiofrequency ablation of renal nerve. If the selected patients are treated with CPAP, this therapy should be stable during the whole study time. Primary and secondary end-point will be measured before and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after renal sympathetic denervation.

Eval EarlySense Bet Lowenstein Sleeplab

ObeseSleep Apnea4 more

The study objective is to collect heart rate, respiration rate and motion data of patients admitted to sleep lab and to determine the accuracy level of the EarlySense system vs. the monitors used in sleep lab (e.g., Polysomnography, respiratory belts, ECG, etc..) . Data regarding sleep condition, scoring and quality of sleep and in and out of bed status, patient turns will also be collected and compared to data collected by EarlySense contactless monitor. Different patient population will be monitored including obese, morbidly obese, patients with or without obstructive/central apnea, patients with or without arrhythmia as well as healthy population who arrive to sleep lab for general evaluation will be monitored

Comparison Of The Berlin Questionnaire To The Portland Sleep Quiz

Sleep Apnea

This trial is enrolling patients who are already being seen at OHSU sleep disorder center or have been referred for clinical reasons by their physician to the OHSU sleep disorder center and are going to have a sleep study that would be paid for by their insurance company for clinical reasons. The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Portland sleep apnea quiz has a higher specificity and negative predictive value then the Berlin Sleep Questionnaire in a patient population with a high predisposition to sleep apnea presenting to a sleep center.

Validation of Withings Sleep for the Detection of Sleep Apnea Syndrome

Sleep Apnea Syndromes

Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS) is a common pathology affecting between 4 and 8% of the general population. It aggravates morbidity and cardio-metabolic mortality and is responsible for accidents related to vigilance disorders. It is estimated that 80% of SAS cases are not diagnosed and therefore not treated. It is however impracticable to propose a diagnostic test of polygraphy (PG) or polysomnography (PSG) to every patient because of the cost and insufficient availability of these exams. It would therefore be useful to carry out a screening test before directing the patient to a complete test. Several simplified polygraph systems with 2 or 3 channels have been proposed (nasal cannula, oximetry, heart rate) but they generally record only one night and remain intrusive enough to perturb the sleep. The Withings Sleep is a non-contact device, along with an airbag placed under the mattress, which allows screening of SAS from four signals: movement, breathing, heart rate and snoring. The objective of the present study is to validate the diagnostic performance of the Withings Sleep for the detection of SAS compared to PSG.

Validation of a New Algorithm for Screening Sleep Apnea Syndrome From Electrocardiogram

Sleep Apnea

Sleep apnea syndrome is a prevalent disease, recognized as an independant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases The gold standard for the diagnosis of sleep apnea is the polysomnography. But polysomnography is time-consuming and very expensive. We developed an algorithm for screening sleep apnea from electrocardiographic signal. This would lead to the simplification of screening sleep apnea by using a two-channels recording device and computerizing the scoring of respiratory events. The validation of the algorithm will consist in comparing the number of apnea and hypopnea per hour of sleep (AHI) detected by the algorithm from the electrocardiographic signal recorded during a standard polysomnography in the Center for Sleep Medicine and Research in Nancy, with the AHI resulted from the standard interpretation of the same polysomnography by experts in sleep scoring (gold standard).

Sleep Apnea and Tromboembolic Disease

Sleep Apnea SyndromesVenous Thromboembolism

There is some evidence for a hypercoagulable state in sleep apnea-hipopnea syndrome (SAHS), which could play a role in the increased cardiovascular morbility and mortality. Respiratory alterations (hypoxia, hypoxia- reoxygenation) and sleep fragmentation that these patients suffer during the sleep may induce modifications in clotting-fibrinolisis factors that may be a risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). OBJECTIVES:To calculate and compare the prevalence of sleep apnea-hipopnea syndrome in patients with venous thromboembolism with a gender, aged and BMI matched control group. Assessment of the association between SAHS and other risk factors for VTE. To compare clotting- fibrinolisis patterns, sleep parameters, blood pressure and pulmonary arterial obstruction index in patients with SAHS and VTE and those ones without SAHS.
