Obstructive Sleep Apnea: Pathogenesis and clinical findings
Vascular Factors: During recumbent sleep, more bodily fluids enter the head and neck area (compared to when the patient is standing/sitting)
↑ volume of head/neck tissue surrounding the upper airwayà possible airway obstruction
Authors: Ciara Hanly Austin Laing Alexander Arnold Reviewers: Steven Liu Amogh Agrawal Yonglin Mai (麦泳琳) Naushad Hirani* Yan Yu* *MD at time of publication
Neuromuscular Factors: Sleep onset and/or the sleeping state reduces the drive of respiratory muscles to breathe
↓ Upper airway neuromuscular activityà↓ upper airway caliber, ↑ upper airway resistance, ↑ upper airway collapsibility during sleep
Structural Factors: Obesity, tonsillar or adenoid hypertrophy, macroglossia, ↑ neck circumference, craniofacial abnormalities
Excess pressure on upper airway, or deformity to that area, ↑ risk of upper airway collapse
Polysomnography
Absence of airflow but persistent ventilatory effort
Hypopnea or Apnea
Paradoxical breathing Chest wall draws in and abdomen expands during inspiration
Ventilatory effort persists against closed airway
No air entry due to collapsed upper airway
↑ Negative intrathoracic pressure
↑ Venous return to right atrium
Stretching of right atrial myocardium à secretion of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
ANP inhibits epithelial Na+ channels (ENaC) in the collecting ducts of the kidney from reabsorbing Na+ à Na+ excretion
↑ Na+ excretionà↑ water excretion
Nocturia
Complete or partial upper airway obstruction during sleep
↑ PCO2 & ̄ PO2
in the lungsà ̄ diffusion gradient of CO2 & O2 between lungs & arteries
↑ PaCO2,, ̄ PaO2
Respiratory acidosis (↑ [H+] in blood)àactivation of vascular endothelial voltage gated K+ channels
Cerebral blood vessel dilation to provide adequate O2 to brain
Morning Headaches
Activation of central (medulla oblongata) & peripheral (carotid body) chemoreceptors
↑ Respiratory drive à ↑ activation of respiratory muscles (ventilatory effort )
Transient arousal from sleep
↑ sympathetic nervous system activityà arterial vasoconstriction
↑ systemic vascular resistance
Systemic Hypertension
↑ intraluminal pressure within blood vesselsàadaptive vascular endothelial and smooth muscle changes
Artery walls thicken, harden and lose elasticityà ̄ perfusion to end organs (such as the brain)
Ischemic stroke
Hypoxia during the day and night
↑ pulmonary vascular resistance
Pulmonary Hypertension
Right heart pumps against higher pulmonary pressure àcardiomyocytes undergo concentric hypertrophy over time
Cor Pulmonale
(Right heart failure due to pulmonary hypertension, separate from left heart failure)
Respiratory muscles overcome upper airway obstructionà airway patency restored
Sleep fragmentation
̄ Daytime cognitive performance and attentiveness
↑ Risk of motor vehicle accidents
Daytime Sleepiness
Eg. Epworth Sleepiness Scale >10
