Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) often hypoventilate during sleep with marked falls in oxygen saturation (SaO2%). This occurs most commonly during REM sleep, when there is a reduction in rib cage excursion and a fall in end-expiratory lung volume (EELV). The aim of this study was to examine the effect of nocturnal nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) on SaO2 and the respiratory d...
Fifty patients with chronic obstructive lung disease were questioned about their sleep quality and their responses were compared with those of 40 similarly aged patients without symptomatic lung disease. Patients with chronic obstructive lung disease reported more difficulty in getting to sleep and staying asleep and more daytime sleepiness than the control group. More than twice as many patien...
BACKGROUND Photoplethysmographic imaging (PPGi) that is based on camera allows acquiring photoplethysmogram and measuring physiological parameters such as pulse rate, respiration rate and perfusion level. It has also shown potential for estimation of arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2). However, there are some technical limitations such as optical shunting, different camera sensitivity to differe...
Ear lobe blood pHa, PaCo2, PaO2, and O2 saturation (SaO2) were measured in healthy Caucasians and Sherpas at 3400 m (Namche Bazaar, Nepal, n = 4/5), 5050 m (Pyramid Laboratory, Lobuche, Nepal, n = 20/5) and 6450 m (Camp II of Mt Everest, n = 11/7). In the investigated altitude range, pHa increased progressively with altitude from 7.463 +/- 0.005 (mean +/- SE) to 7.496 +/- 0.006 in Caucasians wh...
OBJECTIVES To investigate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in a consecutively encountered, nonselected population of young patients with Down syndrome using standard overnight polysomnography and to determine the effects of therapy. METHODS In a population of patients seen for routine developmental evaluations, 9 boys and 10 girls were studied using standard overnight polysomnography. RESULTS ...
BACKGROUND A rising number of patients are surgically treated for heart failure at the more advanced stage, thanks to the increasing use of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a reliable alternative to heart transplantation (HTx). However, it is still unknown whether differences exist between the two surgical approaches in the efficacy of rehabilitation programmes. Therefore, aim of this s...
Respiratory resistance (Rrs6), transcutaneous oxygen tension (PtcO2), and oxygen saturation (SaO2) were measured during methacholine challenge in 15 asthmatic children and six normal adults. During bronchoconstriction, induced by a wide range of inhaled methacholine concentrations (0.5-256 g/l), the rise in Rrs6 was reflected by a fall in PtcO2 in all subjects. Although there was a significant ...
Oxygen diffusion across the alveolar wall is compromised by low alveolar oxygen but also by pulmonary edema, and leads to hypoxemia and hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). To test, whether inhibition of alveolar fluid reabsorption results in an increased pulmonary arterial pressure and whether this effect enhances HPV, we established a model, where anesthetized rats were ventilated with n...
BACKGROUND Many infants who undergo heart surgery have a congenital cyanotic defect in which the heart is chronically perfused with hypoxic blood. However, the signaling pathways by which infant hearts adapt to chronic hypoxia and resist subsequent surgical ischemia is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS We determined the activation and translocation of protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms and mitogen ac...
OBJECTIVES To establish the incidence and severity of arterial oxygen desaturation during transoesophageal echocardiography performed under light intravenous sedation; to determine which patients are at greatest risk; and to assess the effects of supplementary oxygen treatment. DESIGN Prospective study of 150 patients referred for transoesophageal echocardiography. SETTING Echocardiography ...
