10-Year Risk for Cardiovascular Disease Associated with COMISA (Co-Morbid Insomnia and Sleep Apnea) in Hypertensive Subjects.

ABSTRACT: Due to the few studies available, this study aimed to investigate the 10-year risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) associated with COMISA (co-morbid insomnia and sleep apnea) in hypertensive subjects. Clinical data of 1009 hypertensive subjects extracted from the Sleep Laboratory database were analyzed. Framingham Risk Score ≥ 10% was used as a cut-off to identify hypertensive subjects with high 10-year risk for CVD. The association between 10-year risk for CVD and COMISA was investigated using logistic regression analyses. 65.3% of hypertensive subjects from our sample presented a high 10-year risk for CVD. After controlling for major confounding factors, multivariate logistic regression analyses demonstrated that unlike its components present separately, COMISA was significantly associated with high 10-year risk for CVD in hypertensive subjects (OR 1.88, 95% CI 1.01-3.51). In this study, we have demonstrated that the negative synergy between obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and insomnia disorder seems to play a central role in the 10-year risk for CVD in hypertensive subjects, which seems to indicate that the establishment of a systematic research and an adapted treatment of COMISA could open new perspectives to promote a better cardiovascular outcome in this specific subgroup of patients.

Project description:BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia are commonly co-occurring conditions that amplify morbidity and complicates the management of affected patients. Unfortunately, previous research provides limited guidance as to what constitutes the best and most practical management approach for this comorbid patient group. Some preliminary studies show that when cognitive behavioral insomnia therapy (CBT-I) is combined with standard OSA therapies for these patients, outcomes are improved. However, the dearth of trained providers capable of delivering CBT-I has long served as a pragmatic barrier to the widespread use of this therapy in clinical practice. The emergence of sophisticated online CBT-I (OCBT-I) programs could improve access, showing promising reductions in insomnia severity. Given its putative scalability and apparent efficacy, some have argued OCBT-I should represent a 1st-stage intervention in a broader stepped care model that allocates more intensive and less assessable therapist-delivered CBT-I (TCBT-I) only to those who show an inadequate response to lower intensity OCBT-I. However, the efficacy of OCBT-I as a 1st-stage therapy within a broader stepped care management strategy for insomnia comorbid with OSA has yet to be tested with comorbid OSA/insomnia patients.Methods/designThis dual-site randomized clinical trial will use a Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART) design to test a stepped care model relative to standard positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy and determine if (1) augmentation of PAP therapy with OCBT-I improves short-term outcomes of comorbid OSA/insomnia and (2) providing a higher intensity 2nd-stage CBT-I to patients who show sub-optimal short-term outcomes with OCBT-I+PAP improves short and longer-term outcomes. After completing baseline assessment, the comorbid OSA/insomnia patients enrolled will be randomized to a 1st-stage therapy that includes usual care PAP + OCBT-I or UC (usual care PAP + sleep hygiene education). Insomnia will be reassessed after 8 weeks. OCBT-I recipients who meet "remission" criteria (defined as an Insomnia Severity Index score < 10) will continue PAP but will not be offered any additional insomnia intervention and will complete study outcome measures again after an additional 8 weeks and at 3 and 6 month follow-ups. OCBT-I recipients classified as "unremitted" after 8 weeks of treatment will be re-randomized to a 2nd-stage treatment consisting of continued, extended access to OCBT-I or a switch to TCBT-I. Those receiving the 2nd-stage intervention as well as the UC group will be reassessed after another 8 weeks and at 3- and 6-month follow-up time points. The primary outcome will be insomnia remission. Secondary outcomes will include subjective and objective sleep data, including sleep time, sleep efficiency, fatigue ratings, PAP adherence, sleepiness ratings, sleep/wake functioning ratings, and objective daytime alertness.DiscussionThis study will provide new information about optimal interventions for patients with comorbid OSA and insomnia to inform future clinical decision-making processes.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03109210 , registered on April 12, 2017, prospectively registered.

Project description:Colonoscopy with inhaled methoxyflurane (Penthrox) is well tolerated in unselected subjects and is not associated with respiratory depression. The aim of this prospective study was to compare the feasibility, safety, and post-procedural outcomes of portable methoxyflurane used as an analgesic agent during colonoscopy with those of anesthesia-assisted deep sedation (AADS) in subjects with morbid obesity and/or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).The outcomes of 140 patients with morbid obesity/OSA who underwent colonoscopy with either Penthrox inhalation (n = 85; 46 men, 39 women; mean age 57.2 ± 1.1 years) or AADS (n = 55; 27 men, 28 women; mean age, 54.9 ± 1.1 years) were prospectively assessed.All Penthrox-assisted colonoscopies were successful, without any requirement for additional intravenous sedation. Compared with AADS, Penthrox was associated with a shorter total procedural time (24 ± 1 vs. 52 ± 1 minutes, P < 0.001), a lower incidence of hypotension (3 /85 vs. 23 /55, P < 0.001), and a lower incidence of respiratory desaturation (0 /85 vs. 14 /55, P < 0.001). The patients in the Penthrox group recovered more rapidly and were discharged much earlier than those in the AADS group (27 ± 2 vs. 97 ± 5 minutes, P < 0.0001). Of those who underwent colonoscopy with Penthrox, 90 % were willing to receive Penthrox again for colonoscopy. More importantly, of the patients who underwent colonoscopy with Penthrox and had had AADS for previous colonoscopy, 82 % (28 /34) preferred to receive Penthrox for future colonoscopies. Penthrox-assisted colonoscopy cost significantly less than colonoscopy with AADS ($ 332 vs. $ 725, P < 0.001), with a cost saving of approximately $ 400 for each additional complication avoided.Compared with AADS, Penthrox is highly feasible and safe in patients with morbid obesity/OSA undergoing colonoscopy and is associated with fewer cardiorespiratory complications. Because of the advantages of this approach in regard to procedural time, recovery time, and cost benefit in comparison with AADS, further evaluation in a randomized trial is warranted.

Project description:Study objectivesThe objectives of this study were to examine the proportion of study participants screening positive for insomnia disorder and/or sleep apnea in veterans engaged in routine health care and known to be at risk for cardiovascular disease and to compare these proportions with those previously documented in medical records.MethodsThis was a cross-sectional analysis of baseline data from a randomized clinical intervention trial for patients at risk of cardiovascular disease and a review of study participants' medical records. Participants were veterans ≥ 40 years of age, enrolled in Veterans Affairs primary care, and diagnosed with hypertension and/or hypercholesterolemia. Self-report outcomes were the proportion of patients screening positive for an insomnia disorder and sleep apnea, self-reporting a sleep apnea diagnosis, and endorsing undertreated sleep apnea. Medical record outcomes were the proportion of patients diagnosed with insomnia and sleep apnea.ResultsParticipants (n = 420) were veterans (84.8% male) with a mean age of 61.1 years. More than half of the sample (52.1%) screened positive for sleep apnea without prior self-reported diagnosis. More than one-third of the sample (39%) screened positive for an insomnia disorder. Medical records revealed considerably lower rates, with 3.8% diagnosed with insomnia, 20.5% diagnosed with sleep apnea, and about 1% diagnosed with both conditions.ConclusionsUndiagnosed and undertreated sleep disorders are common among veterans at risk for cardiovascular disease. Most of the sample (82%) screened positive for, or met, study criteria for sleep apnea or an insomnia disorder. Limitations include the use of self-reported sleep apnea treatment adherence, an insomnia disorder diagnosis based on questionnaire score, and a sample comprised primarily of male veterans. Routine sleep disorders screening in veterans at risk for cardiovascular disease could help to identify those at even greater risk because of the adverse effects of undiagnosed or undertreated sleep disorders.Clinical trial registrationRegistry; ClinicalTrials.gov; Name: Cardiovascular Intervention Improvement Telemedicine Study; URL: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01142908; Identifier: NCT01142908.

Project description:BackgroundThe impact of the co-occurrence of hypertension and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on the risk of long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) outcomes has not been extensively studied in the Asian population, and the residual effect of OSA on CVD in patients under antihypertensive treatment is not clear. The study aimed to explore the impact of OSA on the risk of CVD outcomes in a large-scale Asian cohort under antihypertensive treatment using retrospective design.MethodsHypertensive patients who underwent polysomnography (PSG) test from January 2011 to December 2013 were recruited from the Urumqi Research on Sleep Apnea and Hypertension (UROSAH) cohort, which was conducted in Hypertension Center of People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. OSA was defined as apnea hypopnea index (AHI) ≥5. Outcomes were extended major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), including the first occurrence of nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal stroke, revascularization, rehospitalization due to unstable angina or heart failure and all-cause death. Cox regression analysis was performed to explore the effect of OSA and hypertension coexistence on MACCE.ResultsA total of 3,329 hypertension patients were enrolled, of whom 2,585 patients (about 77.7%) suffered from OSA. During a median follow-up period of 7.0 years, 415 patients developed extended MACCE. The incidence of extended MACCE was significantly greater in patients with OSA than those without OSA [hazard ratio (HR): 1.59; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.27-1.99; P<0.001]. Overall, patients with OSA had an increased risk of cardiac events of 57% compared to those without OSA (HR: 1.57; 95% CI: 1.04-2.39, P=0.034) and the association did not change in further sensitivity analysis. Particularly in uncontrolled hypertension, OSA was found to have a 93% increased risk of cardiac events, compared with patients without OSA (P=0.036).ConclusionsUntreated OSA seemed to be a factor affecting the prognosis of cardiac events in hypertensive patients, although the association between OSA and cardiac events would be attenuated by the pharmacological-induced blood pressure control, which highlights the need to treat OSA.
