Background: We sought to investigate whether long-term continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and resistant hypertension (RHTN) could attenuate the cardiovascular disease risk by lowering their body-mass index (BMI). Methods: This was a long-term observational study of RHTN patients diagnosed with OSA. Patients were evaluated with polysomnography initially and after a mean follow-up period of four years. The patients were divided into two groups based on their compliance to CPAP therapy. Results: 33 patients (aged 54.67 ± 7.5, 18 men, 54.5%) were included in the study, of which 12 were compliant to CPAP therapy. A significant reduction in BMI at follow-up was noted in patients compliant to CPAP therapy (1.4 ± 3.5 vs. −1.6 ± 2.5, p = 0.006). We also noted a large effect size reduction in abdominal circumference at follow-up in the CPAP group. At follow-up evaluation, the mean heart rate (b/min) was lower in the CPAP group (58.6 ± 9.5 vs. 67.8 ± 7.8), while arrhythmia prevalence increased between initial (28.6%) and follow-up (42.9%) evaluation with an intermediate effect size in non-compliant patients. Conclusions: In our cohort of OSA patients with RHTN, long-term adherence to CPAP therapy was associated with weight loss and improvement in cardiac rhythm outcomes.

Abstract Purpose Adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome has not been established in patients over 70 years of age, whereas several studies have reported adherence below that age. This trial was designed to address this evidence gap. Methods Consecutive senior (> 70 years) patients with OSA, mean respiratory event index (REI) 34/h, body mass index (BMI) 31 kg/m2, and junior (< 50 years) patients (REI 37/h, BMI 31 kg/m2) were included. Results At year follow-up among 72 senior patients (35 women) and 71 junior patients (17 women), there was no difference in the percentage of patients abandoning CPAP (senior 47% vs. junior 43%) or in CPAP daily use (4:53 ± 2:44 hh:min vs. 4:23 ± 3:00 hh:min). Conclusions CPAP adherence in senior patients with OSA was not poorer than that of a younger group of OSA patients. Advanced age should not be an obstacle to CPAP initiation.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disease, with approximately 3–7% of men and 2–5% of women worldwide suffering from symptomatic OSA. If OSA is left untreated, hypoxia, microarousals and increased chemoreceptor stimulation can lead to complications like hypertension (HT). Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most common treatment for OSA, and it works by generating airway patency, which will counteract the apnea or hypopnea. More than one billion people in the world suffer from HT, and the usual treatment is pharmacological with antihypertensive medication (AHM). The focus of this review will be to investigate whether the CPAP therapy for OSA affects HT.

Background: Several observational studies suggest that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. However, there is little data on early subclinical development of cardiovascular disease in OSA patients. Hypothesis: We tested the hypothesis that continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) improves subclinical cardiovascular disease in OSA patients. Methods: Sixteen consecutive patients diagnosed with moderate to severe OSA were recruited into a double-blinded, prospective study. Multimodality cardiovascular imaging (CVI) studies (cardiac MRI, echocardiography, and vascular ultrasound) were performed to assess LV mass, LV and RV ejection fraction (EF), adenosine stress myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR), nitroglycerin mediated coronary vasoreactivity, and flow-mediated vasodilatation (FMD) of the brachial artery. Patients were randomized to either CPAP or sham CPAP therapy and monitored for compliance during the entire period of treatment. After 3 months of therapy, they underwent follow-up CVI studies to assess development of subclinical cardiovascular disease. Results: MPR significantly improved (p=0.02) in patients with CPAP therapy compared to those without. Similarly, FMD of brachial artery improved significantly (p=0.04) following CPAP therapy. No significant differences were observed in LV mass (p=0.31), LV EF (p=0.17), RV EF (p=0.09), LV diastolic function (E/A) (p=0.67), and coronary vasoreactivity (p=0.25) between the two groups. Conclusions: Impairment of endothelial dependent FMD, and MPR, surrogate markers of microvascualr function, has been shown to be the subclinical cardiovascular effects in OSA patients. Our findings suggest that CPAP therapy may prevent the progression of subclinical cardiovascular disease in OSA patients.

Abstract Introduction The initial phase of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may affect sleep parameters and PAP compliance. Actigraphy is a validated method using accelerometer to objectively measure sleep parameters in patients with a range of sleep disorders, including OSA, particularly to follow-up after treatment. We compare sleep parameters from actigraphy, sleep log, sleep diary, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), heart rate and blood pressure in OSA patients before and after CPAP therapy for 1 week. Methods This pilot study have been prospectively performed at Central Chest Institute of Thailand (CCIT) since June to November 2020. Adult OSA patients, diagnosed by ICSD-3 criteria and achieved optimal or good CPAP pressure titration from split-night polysomnography (PSG), were informed and consent to wear actigraphy before and after CPAP therapy each for 1 week. Clinical and sleep parameters were recorded and analyzed using Wilcoxon matched-pair signed-rank and Mann Whitney U test. P-value &lt; 0.05 was considered to have statistical significance. Results All 11 OSA patients participated in this study. Most patients were male (63.6%), hypertension (54.5%) and dyslipidemia (45.4%). Means of age, body mass index (BMI), ESS, PSQI, apnea hypopnea index (AHI), nadir SpO2, and CPAP usage were 45.5 ± 15.9 years, 29.1 ± 5.2 kg/m2, 10.8 ± 3.9, 7.7 ± 2.9, 65.2 ± 37.7 events/h, 82.3 ± 10.8 % and 9.5 ± 3.1 cmH2O, respectively. Comparing before and after 1-week CPAP therapy, an average number of wake bouts ((NWB), 48.4 vs 38 events, p=0.010), ESS (11 vs 9, p=0.035) and PSQI (8 vs 4, p=0.005) were significantly decrease. Additionally, when comparing between poor and good CPAP compliance group, NWB (55.1 vs 36.3 events, p=0.036) and the difference of wake after sleep onset (WASO, 10.5 vs -0.11 min, p=0.035) were significantly decrease. Conclusion OSA patients treated with CPAP for 1-week experienced marked improvement in sleepiness, sleep quality and nighttime awakening. Support (if any):
