OSA: definition OSA is the cessation of airflow for more than ____ seconds dispite continuing ventilation effort, ____ or more times per ____ of sleep, and is usually associated w/ a decrease in arterial O2 saturation SAO2 or more than ___%
10 sec 5 or more per hour 4%
OSA: what % of general sx pts have OSA:
25% (just thought that is alot)
OSA: what are conditions that cause OSA
Obesity Race/genetics Age Male Alcohol/sedatives/analgesics/anesthestics Smoking Nasal/pharyngeal/laryngeal obstruction Cranio-facial abnormality endocrine/metabolic d/o Connective tissue d/o Storage diseases Chronic renal failure
OSA: what are the 3 main muscles of the upper airway that are considered dilator muscles? (they are the ones that keep the airway open)
from top to bottom airway tensor palatine Genio glossus Hyoid Muscles
OSA: what is the circular cycle of OSA 10 steps
Sleep decreased airway tone Obstruction Apnea decreased PO2 increased PCO2 Sympathetic Surge Arousal Increased airway tone Breathing resumes back to sleep and cycle restarts
OSA: Patho with OSA the obstructed breathing can cause decreased O2 and Increased CO2 wchich can leax to what complications
Arrhythmias- MI Pulmonary HTN- RVH Systemic HTN- LVH Daytime sleepiness-personality/behavior changes- accident prone
OSA: classification what are the 3 classifications?
Mild moderate Severe
OSA: classification what is the AHI (apnea/hypopnea index) for mild OSA
5-15 episodes/ hr
OSA: classification what are clinical findings with mild OSA
Mild sleepiness/insomnia Mild O2 desat Benign cadiac arrhythmia
*
OSA: classification what is the AHI for moderate OSA
15-30 episodes/hr
OSA: classification S/S of moderate OSA
Moderate daytime sleepiness, fatigue that interferes w/ ADLs Moderte O2 desat Mild arrhythmias At risk for injuries/accidents At risk for HTN/MI/Stroke/Cor pulmonale
OSA: classification what is severe OSA AHI
> 30 episodes/hr and/or Hypoxia < 90% for >20% of total sleep time
OSA: classification S/S of severe OSA
daytime sleepiness interferes w/ normal activities Severe O2 desat Moderate to severe cardiac arrhythmia At increased risk for injuries/accidents At risk for HTN, MI, Stroke, and cor pulmonale
Screening for OSA: what is the gold standard for screening?
Polysomnography
Screening for OSA: what is the con of the polysomnography
Not practical for each surgical pt
