Wisconsin Sleep Cohort
“Mortality follow-up of the Wisconsin Sleep Cohort,
comprising 20,963 person-years, indicates that
severe SDB is significantly associated with a 3-fold
increased all-cause mortality risk (P < 0.0008),
independently of age, sex, BMI, and other potential
confounders

HTN
Sympathetic Activation in OSA
Heightened SNA persists
during waking hours, not
just during sleep.
Improvements in SNA
during sleep were seen in
this group with CPAP
Somers VK et al. Sympathetic neural mechanisms in obstructive sleep apnea. J Clin Invest
1995;96:1897-1904.
Sympathetic Activation in OSA
SNA was:
1. Greater in Obese vs. lean
2. Greater in Obese + OSA vs Lean + OSA
3. Greater in OSA vs. without OSA (regardless of wt)
Therefore:
1. Sympathetic activation seen in obesity is independent of OSA
2. OSA’s impact on SNA is independent of body weight, but ADDITIVE
Grassi et al., Hypertension 2005;46:321-325.
Exercise Question
• If OSA impacts so many physiological systems,
how may those adaptations manifest during
acute exercise?
• Does it negatively impact their ability to exercise,
ability to improve health/fitness, etc?
• Could changes with exercise provide prognostic
or diagnostic clues as OSA risk?
• Given that SO MANY OSA sufferers go undiagnosed
•
93 and 82% of females and males, who would benefit from
treatment, remain undiagnosed (Young et al., 1997)
“Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX) offers the
clinician the ability to obtain a wealth of information
beyond standard exercise electrocardiography
testing that when appropriately applied and
interpreted can assist in the management of
complex cardiovascular and pulmonary disease.”
Circulation. 2010;122:191-225
• “the addition of ventilatory gas exchange
measurements during exercise testing
provides a wide array of unique and
clinically useful incremental information
that heretofore has been poorly
understood and underutilized by the
practicing clinician. The reasons for this are
many...”
Gas Exchange Variables of Interest
• Peak rate of oxygen uptake (VO
2peak
)
• Reflects the capacity of the heart, lungs, and blood to deliver
O2 to the muscles. Criterion measure of Aerobic Fitness.
•
VO2max = (HR x SV) x [C(a-v)O2]
• Minute ventilation (V )
E
• Amount of air moved in and out of the lungs (Liters/min)
• Ventilatory Equivalent for oxygen consumption (V /VO )
E
• Volume of air you must move to consume 1 Liter of O .
• Marker of ventilatory efficiency

Slope

VE/VCO2 slope - AHI correlation: r = 0.56, P = 0.001
To date, no other studies have examined this explicitly in
OSA
Balady et al
“During dynamic exercise, heart rate increases linearly
with work rate and VO2, but the slope and magnitude of
heart rate acceleration are influenced by age,
deconditioning, body position, type of exercise, and
various states of health and therapy, including heart
transplant. Chronotropic incompetence, defined as either
failure to achieve 85% of the age-predicted maximal heart
rate or a low chronotropic index (heart rate adjusted to the
MET level), is associated with increased mortality risk in
patients with known cardiovascular disease.”

“The repetitive blood pressure
surges during sleep and increased
sympathetic activity during
wakefulness may result in the
structural downregulation of cardiac
Beta-adrenergic receptors and/or
alter the baroreflex set point to a
higher level of pressure.”

Attenuated HR Recovery

Also a reflection of autonomic
dysfunction
•
Imbalance between sympathetic
and parasympathetic activation

“Attenuation of the HR recovery
response in OSA may reflect
predominance and/or slower
withdrawal of sympathetic
influence; how this pattern may be
affected by parasympathetic
reactivation that normally slows HR
is uncertain.”

Other ways to assess
autonomic function?
Heart Rate Variability
HRV is the variation of beat to beat intervals
among successive heart rate cycles.
Heart Rate Variability
•
Heart rate variability (HRV) serves as a reflection of the balance
between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system
•
•
•
•
•
Frequency-domain analysis of HRV have been established as a simple and
non-invasive marker
LF = low frequency (0.04-0.15 Hz). Reflection of
sympathetic/parasympathetic balance
HF = high frequency (0.15-0.40 Hz). Reflection of parasympathetic activity
LF/HF = ratio. Reflection of sympathetic/parasympathetic balance
OSA patients have demonstrated autonomic dysfunction, reflected
in diminished vagal activity and heightened sympathetic activity,
measured through HRV. This is seen even during normal waking
hours. (At rest)
•
Aydin, Tex Heart Inst J 2004;31:132-6
Hargens et al., 2012
• 9 High risk OSA, 16 Controls
•
Max cycle exercise tests
Findings suggest that heightened
•
HRV assessed throughout exercise and recovery
sympathetic activation (LF) and reduced
parasympathetic activation (HF) may
At peak exercise
manifest during high intensity exercise.
Further examination is warranted.

So…GXT as a clinical
tool in OSA?
Methods of assessing HR recovery are
heterogeneous!

Hargens et al., 2013
• Purpose: To examine whether measures
obtained during exercise testing may aid in
clinical risk stratification for OSA
• 102 overweight subjects
• Cycle max exercise test
• Screened for possible OSA with Embletta
• Logistic regression analysis with AHI > 15
criteria for OSA

Current Study
• The impact of untreated OSA on Cardiac
Rehabilitation Participation
• Research question: Does untreated OSA negatively
impact the progress of patients undergoing cardiac
rehabilitation?
• Non-invasive impedance cardiography measures
•
Cardiac output, stroke volume, ejection fraction, systemic
vascular resistance
• Study in conjunction with Radford University,
Carillion Roanoke Community Hospital, Rockingham
Memorial Hospital
Current Study
• Currently have recruited and screened 48
subjects
• Screened for OSA with ApneaLink device and
read by sleep technician
• 38 subjects have AHI > 5
• Most did not know before screening. Small
number (< 5) may have known of OSA
presence/possibility
• 10 subjects have AHI < 5
