Risk factors of sleep-disordered breathing in haemodialysis patients.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is common in patients with kidney disease; but often underdiagnosed as it is infrequently assessed in clinical practice. The objective of this study was to assess the risk factors of SDB in haemodialysis patients, and to identify useful assessment tools to detect SDB in this population. METHODS:We used nocturnal oximetry, Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) and STOPBANG questionnaire to screen for SDB in haemodialysis patients. Presence of SDB was defined by Oxygen desaturation index (ODI?5/h), and further confirmed by apnoea-hypopnea index (AHI) from an in-laboratory polysomnography. Blood samples were collected prior to commencing a haemodialysis treatment. RESULTS:SDB was detected in 70% of participants (N = 107, mean age 67 years). STOPBANG revealed that 89% of participants were at risk of SDB; however, only 17% reported daytime sleepiness on the ESS. Of the participants who underwent polysomnography (n = 36), obstructive sleep apnoea was identified in 86%, and median AHI was 34.5/h. Oximetry and AHI results were positively correlated (r = 0.62, P = 0.0001), as were oximetry and STOPBANG (r = 0.48; P<0.0001), but not ESS (r = 0.19; P = 0.08). Multivariate analysis showed that neck circumference (OR: 1.20; 95% CI: 1.07-1.34; P = 0.02) and haemoglobin (OR: 0.93; 95% CI: 0.88-0.97; P = 0.003) were independently associated with the presence of SDB. CONCLUSION:Dialysis patients with a large neck circumference and anaemia are at risk of SDB; using nocturnal oximetry is practical and reliable to screen for SDB and should be considered in routine management of dialysis patients, particularly for those who demonstrate risk factors.

Project description:BackgroundSleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is a common syndrome in children, related to their immune responses, cardiovascular function, and neurocognitive function. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of SDB among children in Wuxi, China, and to evaluate the protective and risk factors of SDB in children.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted on children attending different schools across Wuxi, China, aged 3-14?years old. Of a total of 5630 questionnaires distributed to the parents of the children, 3997 (71.0%) were deemed to be valid. The data on the general sociodemographic factors, children's allergy and sleep characteristics, and the parents' sleep characteristics were also collected. The Paediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) score was used to identify children at high risk of SDB. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by logistic regression.ResultsThe prevalence of SDB in this cohort was 13.4% (N?=?534). SDB prevalence significantly differed in children with asthma (28.2% vs. 12.8%, P?<?0.001), eczema (19.0% vs. 10.0%, P?<?0.001), urticaria (16.4% vs. 12.9%, P?<?0.01) and rhinitis (21.4% vs. 10.7%, P?<?0.001). No significant differences were found in SDB prevalence with respect to pillow material or quilt material. On multivariate logistic regression analysis, asthma (OR 1.986 (95% CI 1.312-3.007), P?<?0.01), eczema (OR 1.675 (95% CI 1.377-2.037), P?<?0.001), rhinitis (OR 1.998 (95% CI 1.635-2.441), suffered from familial sleep sickness (OR 2.416 (95% CI 1.975-2.955), P?<?0.001) and whose mothers slept for a shorter duration (6?h-8?h: OR 1.370 (95% CI 1.089-1.724), P?<?0.01; <6?h: OR 3.385(95% CI 2.098-5.461), P?<?0.001) increased the odds of having SDB. The incidence of SDB significantly decreased with children's age (6-11?years old: 0R 0.768 (95% CI 0.597-0.989), P?<?0.05; 12-14?years old: OR 0.691 (95% CI 0.530-0.901), P?<?0.01).ConclusionThe results of this study demonstrated that atopic diseases (asthma, eczema, and rhinitis) and family sleep habits were risk factors for SDB in children in Wuxi, China.
