Abstract

Background: SLEEP APNEA is accompanied by some cardiovascular complications. It has even been hypothesized that SLEEP APNEA, itself, can induce some of these complications. Given such controversies, we assessed the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and systolic PULMONARY ARTERY pressure in patients with SLEEP APNEA.Methods: Through convenience sampling, 56 patients with the OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA syndrome (OSAS) were included in the present descriptive cross-sectional study. Patients with any past history of hypertension and diabetes mellitus were excluded. The apnea severity was assessed via the polysomnography-derived apnea-hypopnea index (AHI). All the patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography. In this cross-sectional study - data regarding age, gender, smoking, systolic and diastolic blood pressures, polysomnographic parameters (AHI, severity of disease, mean heart rate, mean oxygen saturation [SaO2], lowest SaO2, and duration of SaO2 below 90% [d.SaO2<90%]), and echocardiographic parameters (systolic PULMONARY ARTERY pressure and LVMI) were accumulated and processed.Results: Fifty-two men and 14 women at a mean age of 49.29 ± 11.79 years participated in this study. Systolic and was significantly high in the severe group compared with the mild group (128.21 ± 9.73 mmHg vs.119.23 ± 12.5 mmHg; p value =0.007). The LVMI was increased parallel to an increase in the severity of the OSAS, but that increase was not statistically significant (p value=0.161). The d.SaO2<90% was positively correlated with the LVMI, and this relationship remained true after adjustment for the body mass index (r=0.27; p value=0.042).Conclusion: Severe OSAS was accompanied by a higher blood pressure. The LVMI did not differ significantly between the patients with the OSAS and those who did not suffer from other risk factors of cardiac diseases.
