34
Q

How do you evaluate for OSA?

A

Polysomnography in the sleep lab

35
Q

What are the two types of sleep studies?

A

Full night sleep

Split night sleep (before and after CPAP)

36
Q

What is CPAP?

A

Continuous positive airway pressure

37
Q

Why are EKGs needed with sleep studies?

A

Apnea may cause arrhythmias

38
Q

An event on a sleep study must last how long to be considered sleep apnea?

A

10 seconds

39
Q

What is the classic breathing pattern with OSA?

A

Paradoxical breathing

40
Q

What is the definition of Hypopnea?

A

Decrease in airflow by 30% AND drop in pulse ox by 4%

41
Q

What is apnea hypopnea index (AHI)?

A

Number of apnea and hypopneas per hour of sleep

42
Q

What is the role of in-home sleep studies?

A

Uncomplicated patients, but does not definitively exclude diagnosis

43
Q

Sleeping in what position may lead to an increase in sleep apnea episodes?

A

Supine

44
Q

What are the therapies for OSA, besides CPAP?

A

Oral appliances

Maxillomandibular advancement

45
Q

What is the last resort for sleep apnea?

A

Tracheostomy

46
Q

What is “adequate” CPAP use?

A

more than 4 h/night on 70% of nights

47
Q

What are the sequelae of untreated sleep apnea?

A

HTN

Insulin resistance

48
Q

What is central sleep apnea (CSA)?

A

Recurrent cessation of respiration during sleep without associated ventilatory effort

49
Q

What is the pathophysiology of central sleep apnea?

A

High ventilatory chemo responsiveness to PaCO2 with exaggerated hyperapnea

50

52
Q

What is the cause of Cheyne-stoke respiration?

A

Decreased perfusion of breathing centers of the brain (maybe)

53

What is congenital central alveolar hypoventilation?

A

a life-threatening disorder manifesting as sleep-associated alveolar hypoventilation
