UNLABELLED: Sleep apnea test (SAT) is a cost-effective approach to evaluate subjects without associated comorbidities suspected for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a disorder particularly common in obese subjects. The association of obesity with awake hypercapnia (carbon dioxide arterial pressure, PaCO2 ≥45 mmHg) defines the obesity-hypoventilation syndrome (OHS), which in turn results in increased morbidity and mortality compared to simple OSA. Isolated hypoventilation during sleep in obese patients (obesity-related sleep hypoventilation, ORSH) is now considered as an early stage of OHS. The aim of this study was to assess the performance of SAT in diagnosing OSA and predicting the presence of ORHS among patients with grade III obesity without awake hypercapnia.
METHODS: Over a 14-months period, patients with grade III obesity (body mass index≥40 kg/m2) presenting moderate-to-severe OSA (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI]≥15) upon SAT and normal awake PaCO2 at arterial blood gas analysis, systematically underwent in-lab nocturnal polysomnography combined with transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (PtcCO2) monitoring.
RESULTS: Among 48 patients included in the study, 16 (33%) presented an AHI<15 upon polysomnography and 14 (29%) had ORSH. The test revealed no difference in ORSH prevalence between patients with AHI <15 or ≥15 (31% vs. 25%). No SAT variables were independently associated with increased PtCO2.
CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that SAT overestimates OSA severity and ORSH affects one third of patients with grade III obesity without awake hypercapnia and with moderate-to-severe OSA at SAT, suggesting how polysomnography combined with PtCO2 monitoring is the most appropriate diagnostic approach for OSA and ORSH in this population.
