Motivational Enhancement - Acute Decompensated Heart Failure and OSA

Acute Decompensated Heart FailureObstructive Sleep Apnea2 more

A feasibility randomized controlled trial will be conducted with a 6-month follow up to: Examine the impact of early intensive telemedicine motivational enhancement (TIME) vs standard of care on PAP adherence (n=40/group) and continuity of care at 3 and 6 months post-discharge in patients admitted with ADHF with a new inpatient diagnosis of OSA(REI>5). Assess the effect of early telemedicine integrated with motivational enhancement (TIME) vs standard of care on patient reported outcomes including Functional Outcomes of Sleep questionnaire (FOSQ-10), Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire (KCCQ-12). Investigate the impact of early TIME vs standard of care on 6-month hospital readmissions.

Intraoperative Ansa Cervicalis Nerve (ACN) Stimulation

Head and Neck CancerObstructive Sleep Apnea

Recently published data suggest that stimulation of the infrahyoid strap muscles increases pharyngeal patency in patients with obstructive sleep apnea, but the innervation of these muscles by the ansa cervicalis is variable. The investigators propose a study examining the anatomic variation of the ansa cervicalis and the effect of neurostimulation on muscle recruitment.

The Effect of High Intensity Interval Exercise and Myofunctional Therapy on Obstructive Sleep Apnea...

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder which is caused because of collapse of airway or inappropriate tongue position. As OSA becomes severe, the physical and psychological aspect might be influenced due to insomnia. In addition, many evidences revealed that OSA is related to cardiovascular disorder. Apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) are common parameters to evaluate the severity of OSA. Recently, body and tongue fat have certain relation with OSA, and the higher the fat, the more possible to get OSA. To find the treatments for OSA, myotherapy has been proved to improve AHI and ESS. The treat mechanism is speculated that increasing muscle tone around oral and oropharyngeal and decreasing tongue fat. High intensity interval training (HIIT) might be effective to OSA, for it could lower down the total body fat. Furthermore, HIIT is a time-efficient program which can increase exercise adherence. Last, less articles discussed about the effect of supervised verse unsupervised treatment and the effect of mix-model treatment. The purpose of the study is investigating the comparison between supervised HIIT plus myotherapy and unsupervised home exercise plus myotherapy. Method: 40 patients who meets the inclusion criteria will be recruited in this article during 2022/01 to 2022/12. Then, they will be randomly assigned into HIIT plus myotherapy group and home exercise plus myotherapy group. The treatment process will last for 8 weeks. All the outcomes such as AHI,ESS and body fat will be completed before and after 8 weeks treatment. The Wilcox signed test was adopted to analyze the treatment before and after the treatment sessions (time effect). The Mann-Whitney U was applied for the difference before and after treatment between two groups (group effect), and the baseline of two groups was also analyzed by this method. The significant level was set as p value< 0.05. Hypothesis: It is speculated that HIIT plus myotherapy might revealed better outcomes on AHI, ESS, and body fat.

Cardiovascular Impact, Quality e Quantity of Sleep in Bed Partners of Patients With Obstructive...

Sleep Apnea Syndromes

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common clinical condition associate with a negative impact not limited to the patients but also to the partner that sleep in the same bed. Is it reasonable to speculate that the partner suffer sleep deprivation, increased level of irritability, insomnia, fatigue, among others due to the loud snoring caused by the OSA patient. Although previous data reported impaired sleep quality in partners of patients with OSA, it is not clear in literature whether OSA promotes cardiovascular impact and if the treatment of OSA promotes some cardiovascular benefits in (the) partner beyond the improvements in the subjective and objective sleep. Thus, the main objectives of this randomized controlled study are: to evaluate the impact of three months of randomization (treatment with nasal CPAP or nasal strips) on the endothelial function, blood pressure (ambulatory blood pressure monitoring), sleep duration (wrist actigraphy for 1 week) and sleep quality (Pittsburgh Questionnaire) and the frequency of OSA in the bed partners of patients with moderate to severe OSA.

Pragmatic Obstructive Sleep Apnea Weight Loss Trial Assessing Effectiveness and Reach

ObesitySleep Apnea1 more

Prevalent obesity related conditions like obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) represent an important opportunity to improve population health. OSA reduces quality of life and is associated with greater risk for cardiovascular disease. Although obesity is the single greatest reversible risk factor for OSA, patients with OSA and obesity rarely receive weight loss care to reverse OSA and other serious comorbidities. Efficacy trials reinforce that time and resource intensive lifestyle-based weight loss programs improve weight and physiologic measures of OSA severity (apnea hypopnea index, AHI). However, there are barriers to translating these findings into meaningful gains for population health. To meet these challenges, the investigators propose a pragmatic trial of proactively offering a remote video-based and self-directed lifestyle-based weight loss intervention with remote coaching to patients with OSA. The investigators primary aim is to test the effectiveness of a proactively delivered and pragmatic lifestyle intervention to improve co-primary endpoints of sleep-related quality of life and weight among patients with OSA and obesity. Secondarily, the investigators will compare additional outcomes between groups including cardiovascular risk scores, sleep symptoms, AHI, well-being, and global ratings of change. Finally, the investigators will also conduct an implementation process evaluation informed by the RE-AIM framework to identify barriers and facilitators to widespread implementation. The investigators will identify patients with OSA and obesity nationwide (n=696) in VA using data from the VA's Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW), and the investigators will contact potentially eligible patients. After confirming eligibility and consent, the investigators will randomly assign subjects to receive the study's lifestyle intervention or usual care alone. The study uses CDW to assess weight change. Subjects will complete questionnaires at baseline at 3, 12 and 21 months after randomization. The lifestyle intervention in POWER focuses on gradual lifestyle behavior change aimed at improving eating habits and increasing physical activity. It encourages participants to gradually achieve and maintain a 5-10% loss of baseline body weight and at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity, such as brisk walking, each week. The lifestyle intervention program consists of watching one video, completing corresponding written self-guided learning materials, and tracking food intake and physical activity each week for the first 12 weeks, then working through 10 additional written handouts and continued food and activity tracking for the next nine months. Intervention participants will have access to a lifestyle coach as desired for the full 12-month intervention period.

Combined Upper-airway and Breathing Control Therapies for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The current study combines two treatments for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), oral appliances and supplemental inspired oxygen. The following aims will be tested: Aim 1. To determine whether supplemental inspired oxygen further reduces OSA severity (apnea-hypopnea index) in patients using an oral appliance. Aim 2. To determine whether baseline OSA phenotypes can predict the efficacy of oral appliances versus supplemental oxygen versus both treatments in combination. We will test whether responders to oral appliances have distinct pathophysiological characteristics compared with oxygen responders.

Mild Cognitive ImpairmentSleep Apnea1 more

The purpose of this project is to determine whether obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) treatment with positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) can delay the progression of cognitive impairment in patients with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) as measured by cognitive testing, and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. Study participants will be assessed at baseline, six-month (cognitive tests only) and one-year follow-up.
