Obstructive Sleep Apnea Increases the Perioperative Risk of Cardiac Valve Replacement Surgery: A Prospective Single-Center Study.
Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine : JCSM : Official Publication of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine 2016 October 16
STUDY OBJECTIVES: Sleep apnea is common in patients referred for cardiac valve replacement (CVR). We aimed to determine the association of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and central sleep apnea (CSA) with perioperative events in CVR surgery in patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease (RVHD).
METHODS: Between April 2010 and April 2014, 290 patients with RVHD undergoing CVR were screened for sleep apnea 1 to 7 days before CVR. Baseline medications, cardiac function, sleep parameters, perioperative events, and related risk factors were evaluated.
RESULTS: OSA patients had longer duration of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and mechanical ventilation compared with no sleep-disordered breathing and CSA patients. Patients with CSA had a higher rate of pacemaker use and higher first dose of dobutamine in ICU. NYHA Class and the presence of OSA were independently associated with overall worsening of postoperative recovery (ICU stay ≥ 25 h). Age, NYHA class, and the presence of OSA were independently associated with postoperative respiratory insufficiency (mechanical ventilation ≥ 20 h). Preoperative atrial fibrillation, pulmonary hypertension, and OSA were independently associated with postoperative pacemaker use.
CONCLUSIONS: RVHD patients with OSA have an increased incidence of perioperative adverse events. OSA was independently associated with overall postoperative recovery, respiratory insufficiency, and higher rate of postoperative pacemaker use, while CSA was not associated with postoperative events.
