Abstract
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with systemic hypertension. Either overnight intermittent hypoxia, or the recurrent arousals that occur in OSA, could cause the daytime increases in blood pressure (BP). To establish the role of intermittent hypoxia in the increased morning BP in patients with OSA. Randomized, double-blinded, crossover trial assessing the effects of overnight supplemental oxygen versus air (sham) on morning BP, after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) withdrawal in patients with moderate to severe OSA. The primary outcome was the change in home morning BP after CPAP withdrawal for 14 nights, oxygen versus air. Secondary outcomes included oxygen desaturation index (ODI), apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), subjective sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale score), and objective sleepiness (Oxford Sleep Resistance Test). Supplemental oxygen virtually abolished the BP rise after CPAP withdrawal and, compared with air, significantly reduced the rise in mean systolic BP (-6.6 mm Hg; 95% confidence interval [CI], -11.3 to -1.9; P = 0.008), mean diastolic BP (-4.6 mm Hg; 95% CI, -7.8 to -1.5; P = 0.006), and median ODI (-23.8/h; interquartile range, -31.0 to -16.3; P < 0.001) after CPAP withdrawal. There was no...Continue Reading
