Association between morphometric variables and nocturnal desaturation in sickle-cell anemia.
OBJECTIVE to evaluate associations between morphometric variables, cervical circumference (CC), and abdominal circumference (AC) with the presence of nocturnal desaturation in children and adolescents with sickle-cell anemia. METHODS all patients were submitted to baseline polysomnography, oral cavity measurements (maxillary intermolar distance, mandibular intermolar distance, and overjet), a...
متن کاملRelationships between exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension and nocturnal desaturation.
This important observation prompted us to report here the results of a prospective study that we conducted during the 1990s, which has only been published in abstract form [2]. Nine male COPD patients with mild hypoxaemia at rest (six current and three ex-smokers) were included in the study (age: 66.9¡5.8 yrs, forced expiratory volume in one second/ forced vital capacity: 43.2¡15.5% predicted, ...
متن کاملRelationship between airway obstruction, desaturation during exercise and nocturnal hypoxaemia in cystic fibrosis patients.
We measured pulmonary function, responses to exercise and oxygen saturation (So2) at rest, and also before and during sleep in 24 patients with cystic fibrosis in a varying degree of severity. The pulmonary function indices analysed were forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), total lung capacity (TLC), measured by body plethysmography (TLC box) and Helium dilution (TLC He), residual vol...
متن کاملThe Association between demographic variables and the prevalence of neurotoxic symptoms in operating room personnel
Introduction: Hospital personnel are exposed to anesthetic gases in various parts of health centers such as operating rooms and recovery rooms. Exposure to anesthetic gases can have serious effects on a person's physical and mental health. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of demographic variables on the prevalence of neurotoxic symptoms in operating room personnel. Met...
متن کاملNocturnal desaturation in patients with stable heart failure.
OBJECTIVE To determine the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing within a United Kingdom heart failure population. SUBJECTS 104 patients and 21 matched normal volunteers. METHODS Overnight home pulse oximetry with simultaneous ECG recording in the patient group; daytime sleepiness was assessed using the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS); 41 patients underwent polysomnography to assess the v...
