Transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation, a novel therapeutic approach for central sleep apnea

Abstract: Central sleep apnea (CSA) is common in heart failure (HF) patients. Traditional treatment of CSA, including continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), adaptive servo ventilation (ASV), oxygen therapy, and CO 2 inhalation, has respective limitations. Transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation (PNS), a novel therapeutic approach for CSA, was proved to be effective and safe. The remedē ® system and related transvenous PNS methods was approved by FDA in 2017, for treating moderate to severe CSA.

“…Periodic breathing with CSA is common in HF and is associated with poor QoL and increased risk of morbidity and mortality [176]. Adaptive servo-ventilation had no significant effect on the primary end point in patients who had HFrEF and predominantly CSA, but all-cause and cardiovascular mortality were both increased with this therapy, as seen in results from SERVE-HF [177].…”

“…These include theophylline, acetazolamide, oxygen and CPAP/BIPAP, some of which showed arrhythmogenic potential that could lead to cardiac arrhythmias. 67,68,70 An alternative approach to treat moderate to severe CSA in HFrEF is a fully implantable neurostimulation system (remedē System, Respicardia, Inc.). 71 It stimulates the phrenic nerve to move the diaphragm causing inspiration by activating the diaphragm to generate negative pressure in the chest (similar to A,B) Implantable pulse generator that connects to the heart with standard pacing leads and delivers BackBeat CNT to lower blood pressure.…”

“…These findings were similar to previously reported CPAP effects on moderate-to-severe OSA (Schwartz et al, 2012). Implantable therapy also exists for treatment of CSA, which includes transvenous phrenic nerve stimulation therapy (Ding & Zhang, 2018).…”
