Objective To test the reliability of the Holter Oximeter for home testing of obstructive sleep apnea. Previous reports have shown a 96% correlation with simultaneous polysomnography and Holter Oximetry in the sleep laboratory. This study was designed to measure reliability of data obtained at home, as well as to obtain information from patients regarding comfort of the device. Methods A prospective study of 120 consecutive patients (ages 5 to 85) presenting to an otolaryngology practice during a 4-month period with complaints of snoring or sleep apnea symptoms. Device: The Holter Oximeter produces an apnea hypopnea index (AHI) based on an automated processing method of a continuous electrocardiogram and pulse oximeter. The reliability of the test was determined by the number of tests completed without interruption due to patient discomfort, electrode or device failure. Results There was 97% data recovery from the home testing device. Data failure was due to faulty memory cards in the device or surface electrode failure. All patients tolerated wearing the device at home, and there were no voluntary interruptions of the tests by patients. On a discomfort scale of 0 to 10 (0: no discomfort and 10: maximal discomfort), the average discomfort score was 2. Conclusions Holter Oximetry represents a new, easy to use, and reliable device for the home diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea. It can also be used to measure outcomes for the surgical and non-surgical treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in adults and children.

Abstract Introduction The frequency of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may be high among patients with cystic fibrosis (CF), a life-shortening, genetic respiratory disease that affects approximately 30,000 Americans. Yet, the potential relationship between OSA and lung function has not been thoroughly explored. Methods Single-center retrospective review of polysomnography (PSG) results from 2009-2017 in referred patients with CF and available pulmonary function data (PFTs) obtained at time of PSG and at 3, 6, 9, and 12-months prior. Results Mean ages were 11.1±3.9 (sd) and 37.1±14.1 years, among 18 children and 16 adults, respectively. Mean body mass index (BMI) was normal in both groups (62.5±26.6% in children; 25.1±6.4 kg/m2 in adults). Twenty-six subjects (76%) had OSA (apnea-hypopnea index >1 in children, ≥5 in adults). Mean forced expiratory volume in 1 second percent predicted (FEV1 PPD) was higher among subjects with vs. without OSA at PSG and at each time-point in the year prior, independent of age and BMI at PSG (longitudinal mixed effects model, β=19.0, SE=8.1, p=0.028). While FEV1 PPD remained unchanged in the non-OSA group, FEV1 PPD at PSG was lower, in comparison to the year prior in subjects with OSA, with the greatest difference observed at 9-months prior to PSG (2-sample t-test, difference of -6.6% vs 0.6% in OSA vs. non-OSA groups respectively, p=0.078). Conclusion The PFTs, as daytime markers of CF lung disease severity, do not seem to reliably predict risk for OSA. In our sample, CF patients with vs. without OSA had better PFTs at baseline but they also showed a greater tendency for decline in PFTs over the year prior to OSA diagnosis. Larger sample size and longer duration of assessment may help, going forward, to assess any potential adverse impact of OSA on lung function decline.

Objective: Race and ethnicity may impact the prevalence and severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) in adults and children. In this study, we aim to investigate the ethnologic influence on OSA severity between Han and Uyghur OSA patients in Xinjiang, China.Methods: We enrolled total of 382 (205 Han and 177 Uyghur) patients diagnosed with OSA with apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) or respiratory disturbance index (RDI) [Formula: see text] 5. During admission, the severity of OSA was evaluated by polysomnography (PSG).Results: From demographic characteristics of enrolled patients, we found that there was no significant difference in sex, age, BMI, and neck circumference between two study populations. Uyghur OSA patients had longer sleep latency, longer REM sleep and N3 stage, but shorter N1 phase than Han OSA patients. AHI and apnea RDI level, but not hypopnea RDI, were evidently higher in Han patients compared with Uyghur patients. There was no distinctive difference between two ethnic populations in average and minimum peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SaO2) level.Conclusion: Better understanding of impact factors encompassing ethnicity may help improve OSA diagnosis accuracy, management and treatment for patients in Xinjiang.
