DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The prevalence of Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) in patients with stable heart failure exceeds 50%, and usually goes unrecognized and untreated. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) has strong etiological relationships with obesity, aging, hypertension and diabetes, all of which are causes of chronic heart failure. In a large population based study, OSA was an independent risk factor for developing heart failure. Obesity, and aging, both on the rise in the general population, are risk factors for both OSA and heart failure. Therefore, it is likely that OSA is playing a significant role in the progression of cardiac dysfunction in patients with cardiovascular disease, obesity, or aging. OSA, an established cause of hypertension, promotes poor outcomes of hypertension, Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), and atrial and ventricular arrhythmia, all of which are causes of Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure (ADHF). Therefore, OSA may particularly be implicated in the acute decompensation of heart failure, a condition often triggered by atrial fibrillation, CAD or hypertension. Our preliminary data confirm that 62% of patients hospitalized with ADHF have unrecognized OSA; an even higher prevalence than the current estimates in patients with stable heart failure. Episodes of obstructive apnea produce intermittent hypoxia, increased sympathetic activity, and large negative intra-thoracic pressure swings, all of which are devastating perturbations in patients with deteriorating cardiac function and may lead to decompensated heart failure. There is strong evidence that treatment of OSA with Continuous Positive Airway pressure (CPAP) reduces fatal and non-fatal cardiovascular events. Additionally, in patients with OSA and underlying heart failure, CPAP improves ejection fraction, sympathetic activity, and functional status. Despite these findings, systematic approaches to identifying and treating new cases of OSA among patients hospitalized for ADHF or even patients with stable heart failure are not part of current management guidelines. An evaluation of a systematic diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for OSA in patients hospitalized with ADHF has not been undertaken to date. This proposed research will evaluate the impact of an approach of expedited inpatient identification and treatment of OSA on within hospital and 3 month post-discharge cardiac and functional outcomes, through a randomized trial. Patients with ADHF will undergo an in-hospital sleep study. Among patients with ADHF who are newly diagnosed with OSA, one group (n=85) will receive immediate treatment for OSA during their hospitalization while the other randomized group (n=85) will receive the current standard of care including outpatient diagnosis with in-lab sleep study and outpatient initiation of CPAP. The effect of this approach on patients' adherence to CPAP will also be evaluated. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This proposed research will evaluate the impact of a systematic approach of inpatient identification and treatment of OSA in patients with Acutely Decompensated Heart Failure on within hospital and 3 month post-discharge cardiac and functional outcomes, through a randomized trial.

描述（由申请人提供）：睡眠呼吸障碍（SDB）在稳定性心力衰竭患者中的患病率超过50%，通常无法识别和治疗。阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停（OSA）与肥胖、衰老、高血压和糖尿病有很强的病因学关系，所有这些都是慢性心力衰竭的原因。在一项大规模人群研究中，OSA是发生心力衰竭的独立危险因素。肥胖和老龄化在普通人群中都在增加，是OSA和心力衰竭的危险因素。因此，阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停很可能在心血管疾病、肥胖或衰老患者的心功能障碍进展中发挥重要作用。OSA是高血压的一个既定原因，促进高血压、冠状动脉疾病（CAD）和室性心律失常的不良结局，所有这些都是急性失代偿性心力衰竭（ADHF）的原因。因此，OSA可能特别与心力衰竭的急性失代偿有关，心力衰竭是一种经常由心房颤动、CAD或高血压引发的疾病。我们的初步数据证实，62%的ADHF住院患者患有未被识别的OSA;这一患病率甚至高于目前对稳定性心力衰竭患者的估计。阻塞性呼吸暂停的发作会产生间歇性缺氧、交感神经活动增加和大的负胸内压波动，所有这些都是心脏功能恶化患者的破坏性扰动，并可能导致失代偿性心力衰竭。有强有力的证据表明，持续气道正压通气（CPAP）治疗OSA可减少致命和非致命的心血管事件。此外，在患有OSA和潜在心力衰竭的患者中，CPAP改善射血分数、交感神经活性和功能状态。尽管有这些发现，但在因ADHF住院的患者甚至稳定性心力衰竭患者中识别和治疗OSA新发病例的系统方法并不是当前管理指南的一部分。迄今为止，尚未对ADHF住院患者的OSA系统诊断和治疗策略进行评价。这项拟议的研究将通过随机试验评估快速住院识别和治疗阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合症的方法对院内和出院后3个月心脏和功能结局的影响。ADHF患者将接受院内睡眠研究。在新诊断为OSA的ADHF患者中，一组（n=85）将在住院期间立即接受OSA治疗，而另一组（n=85）将接受当前标准治疗，包括门诊诊断和实验室内睡眠研究以及门诊开始CPAP。还将评估这种方法对患者坚持CPAP的影响。 公共卫生关系：这项拟议的研究将通过一项随机试验，评价急性失代偿性心力衰竭患者中OSA住院识别和治疗的系统方法对院内和出院后3个月心脏和功能结局的影响。
