Respiratory Effort-related Arousals

RERA: Respiratory Effort-related Arousal (Guilleminault, 1993) A sequence of breaths characterized by increasing respiratory effort leading to an arousal from sleep which does not meet criteria for an apnea or hypopnea. These events must fulfill both of the following criteria: 1. Pattern of progressively more negative esophageal pressure, terminated by a sudden change in pressure to a less negative level and an arousal 1. Pattern of progressively more negative esophageal pressure, terminated by a sudden change in pressure to a less negative level and an arousal 2. The event lasts 10 seconds or longer. 2. The event lasts 10 seconds or longer. UARS (Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome): > 5 RERA’s per hour of sleep

What About “Simple Snoring?” Snoring in pregnancy is associated with increased hypertension and growth retardation, controlling for weight, age, smoking (Franklin, Chest, 2000) Snoring in pregnancy is associated with increased hypertension and growth retardation, controlling for weight, age, smoking (Franklin, Chest, 2000) Snoring is associated with cognitive decline (Quesnot, J Am Geriatric Soc, 1999) Snoring is associated with cognitive decline (Quesnot, J Am Geriatric Soc, 1999) Snoring medical students are more likely to fail exams, controlling for BMI, age, sex (Ficker, Sleep, 1999). Snoring medical students are more likely to fail exams, controlling for BMI, age, sex (Ficker, Sleep, 1999). Snoring is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease in women. (Hu, J Am Coll Cardiol 2000). Snoring is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease in women. (Hu, J Am Coll Cardiol 2000). Snoring is a risk for type II diabetes (Al-Delaimy, Am J Epidemiol 2002). Snoring is a risk for type II diabetes (Al-Delaimy, Am J Epidemiol 2002). Snoring women have faster progression of CAD ( Leineweber C. Sleep 2004) Snoring women have faster progression of CAD ( Leineweber C. Sleep 2004)

Measures of Sleep Apnea Frequency Apnea Index Apnea Index –# apneas per hour of sleep Apnea / Hypopnea Index (AHI) Apnea / Hypopnea Index (AHI) –# apneas + hypopneas per hour of sleep Respiratory Disturbance Index Respiratory Disturbance Index –# apneas + hypopneas + RERAs per hour of sleep
14
Severity Criteria Based on PSG From the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (Sleep, 1999) “Mild” sleep apnea is 5-15 events/hr “Mild” sleep apnea is 5-15 events/hr “Moderate” sleep apnea is 15-30 events/hr “Moderate” sleep apnea is 15-30 events/hr “Severe” sleep apnea is over 30 events/hr “Severe” sleep apnea is over 30 events/hr (“Events” includes apneas, hypopneas, and RERA’s) (“Events” includes apneas, hypopneas, and RERA’s)

Oral Appliances (Kushida C, Sleep 2006) Indicated for patients with mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea who prefer oral appliances to CPAP do not respond to CPAP are not appropriate candidates for CPAP fail treatment attempts with CPAP ( Kushida Sleep 2006) Not as effective as CPAP Lower blood pressure 3-4 mmHg (Otsuka Sleep Breath 2006) Outperformed surgery in the only head-to-head trial. Preferred to CPAP in head-to-head trials.
110
Do Oral Appliances Work? Cochrane Database Syst Rev. 2006 Jan 25;(1):CD001106. “CPAP is effective in reducing symptoms of sleepiness and improving quality of life measures in people with moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). It is more effective than oral appliances in reducing respiratory disturbances in these people but subjective outcomes are more equivocal. Certain people tend to prefer oral appliances to CPAP where both are effective. This could be because they offer a more convenient way of controlling OSA.”
