The rate of decrease in oxygen desaturation during severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is correlated with subjective excessive daytime sleepiness
SLEEP AND BREATHING(2020)
摘要
Purpose To explore factors that influence subjective excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Methods Patients with snoring seen at the Sleep Medicine Center of The Affiliated Huaian No.1 People’s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between October 2018 and November 2019 were included in this study. All patients underwent polysomnography (PSG). Noninvasive frequency-domain analysis was used to assess the autonomic nervous system regulation of the heart, with the low frequency (LF)/high frequency (HF) power ratio used to represent the sympathetic-parasympathetic balance. Daytime sleepiness was evaluated by the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS). Overnight apnea episodes were included for analyses. The rate of pulse oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO 2 ) decrease was measured as the change in the percentage of SpO 2 per second after obstructive apnea and was expressed as the oxygen desaturation rate (ODR). Results A total of 101 patients with severe OSAS were enrolled in this study and were further divided into two groups: the EDS group (ESS > 10, n = 52) and the non-EDS group (ESS ≤ 10, n = 49). The apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), respiratory effort-related arousals (RERAs), and LF/HF power ratio were significantly higher in the EDS group than in the non-EDS group (AHI: 69.9 ± 14.5 vs. 57.9 ± 16.1 events/h; RERAs: 42.2 ± 16.7 vs. 30.4 ± 13.7 events/h; LF/HF power ratio: 2.9 ± 0.8% vs. 2.4 ± 0.9%, all p < 0.001). Multiple linear regression analyses revealed that after adjusting for covariates expected to affect this relationship, ESS scores were correlated with ODR ( β = 0.520, p < 0.001) and LF/HF power ratio ( β = 0.155, p = 0.028), rather than with the traditional sleep-disordered breathing parameters. Conclusions Compared with the traditional PSG parameters, both ODR and an increased LF/HF power ratio were more closely related to daytime sleepiness, especially ODR.
