Central sleep apnea (CSA) and Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) are highly prevalent in heart failure (HF) and are linked to increased mortality. Impaired pulmonary diffusion capacity [DLCO] and [KCO]) have been suggested to play a key role in CSA-CSR pathophysiology. This study investigated the relationship between HF, CSR, DLCO and KCO in well-characterized HF patients.
This prospective study included HF patients with CSR, all patients underwent full overnight polysomnography (PSG) and lung function testing.
A total of 100 patients were included (age 70.7±9.7years, 95% male, body mass index 28.9±5.3kg/m, left ventricular ejection fraction 33.5±7.7%, New York Heart Association class III 65%. DLCO and oxygenation were significantly correlated with hypoxemic burden (p<0.05). Mean oxygen saturation, oxygen desaturation, C-reactive protein level and pH were significantly associated with CSA-CSR severity (p<0.05).
The finding that lung diffusion capacity is significantly associated with hypoxemic burden in HF patients with CSA-CSR highlights the important of lung function in HF patients.
中枢性睡眠呼吸暂停(CSA)和陈-施呼吸(CSR)在心力衰竭(HF)中高度流行,且与死亡率增加相关。肺弥散功能受损([DLCO]和[KCO])被认为在CSA-CSR病理生理学中起关键作用。本研究调查了特征明确的HF患者中HF、CSR、DLCO和KCO之间的关系。
这项前瞻性研究纳入了患有CSR的HF患者,所有患者均接受了整夜多导睡眠图(PSG)和肺功能测试。
共纳入100例患者(年龄70.7±9.7岁,95%为男性,体重指数28.9±5.3kg/m,左心室射血分数33.5±7.7%,纽约心脏协会III级65%)。DLCO和氧合与低氧负担显著相关(p<0.05)。平均血氧饱和度、氧饱和度下降、C反应蛋白水平和pH值与CSA-CSR严重程度显著相关(p<0.05)。
在患有CSA-CSR的HF患者中,肺弥散功能与低氧负担显著相关这一发现突出了肺功能在HF患者中的重要性。
