Neural respiratory drive and cardiac function in patients with obesity hypoventilation syndrome following initiation of non-invasive ventilation

Abstract: Background: Chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (HRF) in obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) is commonly treated using non-invasive ventilation (NIV). We hypothesised that treatment of OHS would improve neural respiratory drive index (NRDI) and cardiac function.Methods: Fourteen patients (8 females) with OHS, who were admitted for initiation of domiciliary NIV, were prospectively studied. Patients had (mean ± SD): age (53±10 years), body mass index (BMI) (50.1± 10.8 kg/m 2 ), and pCO 2 (7.3±0.9 kPa).… Show more

“…39 Moreover, increased lung volume reduces airway resistance and flow limitations, leading to reduced work of breathing, particularly when in the recumbent position. 40 In general, 50-80% of ambulatory stable OHS patients with comorbid OSA respond to CPAP. 5,33,41,42 Additionally, CPAP is more cost-effective than BPAP and other modes of NIV.…”

“…One randomised controlled trial and two series showed near normalisation of pulmonary haemodynamics after 3-6 months with NIV (63)(64)(65). One further study on 14 patients with obesity-related hypercapnic respiratory failure reviewed echocardiography features of PH preand post-NIV treatment (6 patients with >4 hours adherence with therapy) and found no difference from baseline at 3 months (66). A positive treatment effect from NIV on the respiratory system was demonstrated by neural respiratory drive assessment despite there being no significant effect on the cardiovascular system in the short term.…”

“…The baseline demographics did not significantly change for this cohort over the course of the decade (p-trend=0.65). Patients were mildly sleepy with an ESS of 9 [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] points. The clinical observations (heart rate, respiratory rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure) of the entire cohort recorded at discharge following their HMV setup remained stable over the entire decade.…”

“…Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is the treatment of choice for normocapnic SDB (13). However, Home Mechanical Ventilation (HMV) is the preferred choice for SDB that is accompanied by chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure (HRF), as it improves clinical outcomes in OSA (9,14) and Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (15) (OSA/OHS), Neuromuscular Disease (NMD) (16) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (17,18).…”
