  • Inadequate sleep time
  • Poor sleep hygiene
  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea
  • Periodic Limb Movement of

Sleep/Restless Leg Syndrome

  • Inadequately treated depression
  • Medication side effects

Differential Diagnosis

Daytime Sleepiness

  • 16% of adults experience excessive

sleepiness that impairs daily functioning (Young, 2004).

  • More than 100,000 automobile accidents

each year are due to drivers falling asleep (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). 71,000 non-fatal injuries 1500 fatalities 12.5 billion dollars in annual all-cause monetary loss

Daytime Sleepiness

  • Sleep deprivation for 1 day or sleeping 2

hours less/day for a week resulted in the same driving impairment as a blood alcohol level of 0.089 g/dL (Powell, 2001).

  • 2002 NHTSA survey of 4010 adult drivers
  • Of the 11% who admitted to nodding
  • ff while driving in the previous year,

2/3 stated they had ≤ 6 hours of sleep the previous night

Assessment of Sleepiness

The Epworth Sleepiness Scale

SITUATION CHANCE OF DOZING 1-Sitting and reading 2-Watching TV 3-Sitting inactive in a public place (I.e. a theater or a meeting) 4- As a passenger in a car for an hour without break 5- Lying down to rest in the afternoon when circumstances permit 6-Sitting and talking to someone 7-Sitting quietly after lunch without alcohol 8 -In a car, while stopping for a few minutes in traffic

0 = Would never doze 1 = Slight chance of dozing 2 = Moderate chance of dozing 3 = High chance of dozing

What is the most effective next intervention?

  • Evaluate for OSA!

Improved sleep hygiene and expanded sleep alone are unlikely to reduce sleepiness if OSA is untreated OSA is linked to hypertension, cardiovascular disease, periodic limb movement and depression

  • OSA- why should I care?
  • If I have to care, what should

I do about it?

  • Treatment of OSA and CSA in patients

with heart disease is a waste of time !

Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Prevalence of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Occurrence of Sleep-Disordered Breathing among Middle-Aged Adults The Wisconsin Sleep Cohort, NEJM 1993

Symptoms of OSA

  • Snoring
  • Excessive daytime sleepiness
  • Witnessed apneas
  • Poor memory and concentration,

irritability or personality changes

  • Other: Dry throat, morning headache,

and nocturia

Diagnosis

  • History and physical examination
  • Questionnaires
  • Pulse oximetry
  • Portable sleep studies
  • Polysomnography

OSA-Imbalance between Dilating and Constricting Forces of the Upper Airway

  • Dilating forces:

pharyngeal muscle tone Lung volumes

  • Constricting forces:

Negative inspiratory pressure Extra luminal fat

Effects of Sleep

  • n the Upper Airway
  • Loss of tone in genioglossus, palatal,

and pharyngeal constrictor muscles

  • Supine position and reduced lung

volumes

Physical Examination in OSA

  • Neck circumference

> 17 inches in males > 16 inches in females

  • Craniofacial anatomy

Inferiorly positioned hyoid bone Mandibular insufficiency Increased mid-facial height

  • Nasal obstruction

Case: Results of the Sleep Study

  • Sleep Efficiency: 68%
  • Wakefulness and arousal index: 37/hour
  • Respiratory disturbance index: 42/hour
  • Periodic Limb Movement Index: 32/hour

Why should this patient be treated urgently?

  • Professional driver with sleepiness
  • Poorly controlled hypertension
  • Cardiovascular risk
  • Depression
  • Quality of Life

Prospective Data From Wisconsin Sleep Cohort Study (N=913)

Does Sleep Apnea Increase Crash Rates?

Answer Yes

  • Different data about relationship between

crash risk and severity of illness

  • Severe sleep apnea is a risk factor for ↑

crashes

  • Is mild-to-moderate sleep apnea a risk

factor for ↑ crashes—Not clear

  • Does treatment reduce crash risk? Yes

OSA And Hypertension

  • 40% of patients with OSA have

hypertension

  • 50% of patients with hypertension

have OSA

  • OSA patients were more likely to be

nocturnal “non-dippers”

  • Treatment of OSA reduces blood

pressure

  • OSA worsens atrial fibrillation
  • OSA worsens Hypertension control
  • OSA promotes stroke
  • OSA worsens outcome of stroke
  • OSA promotes arrhythmia

OSA is a Cardiovascular Risk Factor

  • OSA is a cardiovascular risk

factor just like high cholesterol and diabetes Certain cardiovascular risk factors are modifiable

OSA is a Cardiovascular Risk Factor

Early identification and treatment of cardiovascular risk factors is the current focus of care Treatment of co-existent OSA in patients with established cardiovascular disease is critical

Case-Continued

  • Patient is started on CPAP, returns

after 6 weeks with:

Complete resolution of snoring Remains restless in sleep Sleepiness is only partially improved Dry mouth in the morning

Why didn’t the treatment of OSA completely reverse sleepiness

  • Is the patient adequately for OSA?

Is the patient using CPAP long enough? Is the mask appropriately fitted? Is there mask leak?

  • Are there other correctable causes of

sleepiness?

CPAP Limitations

  • Interface
  • Mask issues, claustrophobia
  • Mouth leaks
  • Skin abrasion
  • Pressure-related
  • Intolerance of pressure, flow

  • Sleep stage

Assessment of Adequate treatment of OSA

  • Hours of use per night: >4-5 hours
  • Total Sleep time: 7-10 hours
  • Mask fitting (noise, dry eyes, aerophagia)
  • Number of awakening per night

Differential Diagnosis

  • Inadequate sleep time
  • Poor sleep hygiene
