High Prevalence of Abnormal Nocturnal Oximetry in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Abstract: Abnormal nocturnal oximetry is common in patients with HCM, suggesting that OSA is prevalent. OSA may impact hemodynamics and symptoms in HCM. Further studies are needed to determine the long-term benefit of OSA treatment on hemodynamics and disease progression in HCM.

“…A high risk for OSA was found in more than one third of patients with HCM and is consistent with the 40% rate of OSA confirmed by sleep studies in 80 patients of the present cohort [4]. These results are consistent with a recent report of a high prevalence of oxygen desaturations during sleep suggestive of OSA in another cohort of patients with HCM [18]. Therefore, OSA may help to explain, at least in part, poor sleep quality in patients with HCM.…”

“…About 80% of our patients presented with SDB, and 44% had relevant sleep apnea fulfilling accepted criteria for specific treatment. These results are comparable with recent data of Eleid and coworkers, 24 who found sleep apnea in about 71% of their patients. Both the cohort and the control patients predominantly had OSA.…”

“…4,5 Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), and particularly its most common form, OSA, is highly prevalent and is oft en underdiagnosed among patients with cardiovascular diseases, including patients with HCM. 6,7 In patients who do not have HCM, SDB has been identifi ed as a potentially reversible contributor to decreased functional capacity, [8][9][10] but whether such an association exists in patients with HCM remains unknown. Cardiopulmonary exercise testing provides the most accurate assessment of functional capacity in patients with HCM.…”
