Relationship of stroke volume to different patterns of Cheyne-Stokes respiration in heart failure.

ABSTRACT: In patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF), stroke volume (SV) falls during hyperpnea of Cheyne-Stokes respiration with central sleep apnea (CSR-CSA). We have identified two distinct patterns of hyperpnea: positive, in which end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) remains at or above functional residual capacity (FRC), and negative, in which EELV falls below FRC. The increase in expiratory intrathoracic pressure generated by the latter should have effects on the heart analogous to external chest compression. To test the hypotheses that in HFrEF patients, CSR-CSA with the negative pattern has an auto-resuscitation effect such that compared with the positive pattern, it is associated with a smaller fall in SV and a smaller increase in cardiac workload (product of heart rate and systolic blood pressure). In 15 consecutive HFrEF patients with CSR-CSA during polysomnography, hemodynamic data derived from digital photoplethysmography during positive and negative hyperpneas were compared. Compared to the positive, negative hyperpneas were accompanied by reductions in the maximum and mean relative fall in SV of 30% (p = 0.002) and 10% (p = 0.031), respectively, and by reductions in the degree of increases in heart rate and rate pressure product during hyperpnea of 46% (p < 0.001) and 13% (p = 0.007), respectively. Our findings suggest the novel concept that the negative pattern of CSR-CSA may constitute a form of auto-resuscitation that acts as a compensatory mechanism to maintain SV in patients with severe HF.

Project description:Transient increases in ventilation induced by arousal from sleep during Cheyne-Stokes respiration in heart failure patients are thought to contribute to sustaining and exacerbating the ventilatory oscillation. The only possibility to investigate the validity of this notion is to use observational data. This entails some significant challenges: (i) accurate identification of both arousal onset and offset; (ii) detection of short arousals (<3 s); (iii) breath-by-breath analysis of the interaction between arousals and ventilation; (iv) careful control for important confounding factors. In this paper we report how we have tackled these challenges by developing innovative computer-assisted methodologies. The identification of arousal onset and offset is performed by a hybrid approach that integrates visual scoring with computer-based automated analysis. We use a statistical detector to automatically discriminate between dominant theta-delta and dominant alpha activity at each instant of time. Moreover, a statistical detector is used to validate visual scoring of K complexes, delta waves or artifacts associated with an EEG frequency shift, as well as frequency shifts to beta activity. A high-resolution (250 ms) state-transition diagram providing continuous information on the sleep-wake state of the subject is finally obtained. Based on this information, arousals are automatically identified as any state change from sleep to wakefulness lasting ≥2 s. The assessment of the interaction between arousals and ventilation is performed using a breath-by-breath, case-control approach. The arousal-associated change in ventilation is measured as the normalized difference between minute ventilation in the case breath (i.e., with arousal) and that in the control breath (i.e., without arousal), controlling for sleep stage and chemical drive. The latter is estimated by using information from pulse oximetry at the finger. In the last part of the paper, we discuss main potential sources of error inherent in the described methodologies.

Project description:BackgroundThe role of worsening renal function during acute heart failure (AHF) hospitalization is still debated. Very few studies have extensively evaluated the renal function (RF) trend during hospitalization by repetitive measurements.ObjectivesTo investigate the prognostic relevance of different RF trajectories together with the congestion status in hospitalized patients.MethodsThis is a post hoc analysis of a multi-center study including 467 patients admitted with AHF who were screened for the Diur-AHF Trial. We recognized five main RF trajectories based on serum creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) behavior. According to the RF trajectories our sample was divided into 1-stable (S), 2-transient improvement (TI), 3-permanent improvement (PI), 4-transient worsening (TW), and 5-persistent worsening (PW). The primary outcome was the combined endpoint of 180 days including all causes of mortality and re-hospitalization.ResultsWe recruited 467 subjects with a mean congestion score of 3.5±1.08 and a median creatinine value of 1.28 (1.00-1.70) mg/dl, eGFR 50 (37-65) ml/min/m2 and NTpro B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) 7,000 (4,200-11,700) pg/ml. A univariate analysis of the RF pattern demonstrated that TI and PW patterns were significantly related to poor prognosis [HR: 2.71 (1.81-4.05); p < 0.001; HR: 1.68 (1.15-2.45); p = 0.007, respectively]. Conversely, the TW pattern showed a significantly protective effect on outcome [HR:0.34 (0.19-0.60); p < 0.001]. Persistence of congestion and BNP reduction ≥ 30% were significantly related to clinical outcome at univariate analysis [HR: 2.41 (1.81-3.21); p < 0.001 and HR:0.47 (0.35-0.67); p < 0.001]. A multivariable analysis confirmed the independently prognostic role of TI, PW patterns, persistence of congestion, and reduced BNP decrease at discharge.ConclusionsVarious RF patterns during AHF hospitalization are associated with different risk(s). PW and TI appear to be the two trajectories related to worse outcome. Current findings confirm the importance of RF evaluation during and after hospitalization.

Project description:AimsThe present study aimed to phenotype the cerebral structural and glucose metabolic alterations in patients with heart failure (HF) using simultaneous positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance (MR) and to investigate their relationship to cardiac biomarkers and cognitive performance.Methods and resultsForty-two HF patients caused by ischaemic heart disease (mean age 67.2 ± 10.4, 32 males) and 32 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (mean age 61.3 ± 4.8, 18 males) were included in this study. Participants underwent simultaneous cerebral fluorine-18 (18 F) fluorodeoxyglucose PET/MR followed by cardiac MR scan, and neuropsychological scores were obtained to assess cognitive performance. The grey matter volume (GMV) and standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) were calculated to examine cerebral structural and metabolic alterations. Cardiac biomarkers included cardiac MR parameters and cardiac serum laboratory tests. Mediation analysis was performed to explore the associations among cerebral alterations, cardiac biomarkers, and cognitive performance. HF patients demonstrated notable cognitive impairment compared with normal controls (P < 0.001). Furthermore, HF patients exhibited regional brain hypometabolism in the bilateral calcarine cortex, caudate nucleus, thalamus, hippocampus, precuneus, posterior cingulate cortex, lingual and olfactory cortex, and GMV reduction in bilateral thalamus and hippocampus (cluster level at P < 0.05, Gaussian random field correction). The SUVR of the hypometabolic brain regions was correlated with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) scores (r = 0.55, P = 0.038) and cardiac stroke volume (r = 0.49, P = 0.002). Cerebral hypometabolism played a key role in the relationship between the decreased stroke volume and MoCA scores, with a mediation effect of 33.2%.ConclusionsHF patients suffered cerebral metabolic and structural alterations in regions associated with cognition. The observed correlation between cardiac stroke volume and cognitive impairment underscored the potential influence of cerebral hypometabolism, suggesting that cerebral hypometabolism due to chronic systemic hypoperfusion may significantly contribute to cognitive impairment in HF patients.
