Respiratory Muscles and Rib Cage
• Function during inspiration:– diaphragm contracts and moves
downward.– pressure is lower in the thoracic
cage causing air to come into the lungs
• Function on exhalation:– diaphragm relaxes and moves
upward compressing the lungs– pressure is higher in the lungs
causing air to move out of the lungs

Airway Vessel and Function
• The respiratory system is made up of 2 main sections:
– conducting airway– gas exchange area
• The conducting airway moves fresh gas from the atmosphere into the respiratory system
• The airway is made of a series of channels that lead the fresh gas to the gas exchange area:
– alveolar sacs

Gas Exchange
• Goal of inspiration – move air to the area of the lung
that will allow gas exchange to occur• alveolar sac
• Pressure gradients determine if gas exchange occurs.
• Pressure gradient must exist– higher in the lungs, lower in the
blood
Result Gas Exchange

Gas Exchange
• In addition to fresh gas and movement of the pulmonary muscles, the alveolar units must have blood going past the alveolar sac
• The combination of fresh gas and blood allows for gas exchange to occur
– normal O2 levels for an adult: 80 – 100 mmHg
– normal PCO2 levels for an adult: 35 – 45 mmHg
Result Gas Exchange

Gas Exchange: Problems
• There can be many reasons why gas exchange does not occur, such as:– poor perfusion of the pulmonary system– destruction of the alveolar sacs– inability to move gas into the alveolar sacs
• decreased lung expansion• conduction problem with nervous system impulse• muscular weakness
– combination of factors

• Small percentage will have Overlap Syndrome

Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome (OHS): Etiology
• Absence of significant lung or respiratory disease1
• May result from both a defect in the brain's control over breathing and excessive weight against the chest wall
– makes it hard for a person to take a deep breath
– inefficient breathing leads to lower PO2 levels and higher PCO2
levels in the blood when awake
May be referred to as “Pickwickian Syndrome”

Volume Assurance with PS is NOT recommended for patients with periodic breathing • Treatment of periodic breathing requires a variable breath by breath
response system so the patients PaCO2 stabilizes quickly– Prevents overshooting or undershooting the PaCO2 breath by
breath– Does not augment the patients tidal volume consistently
• Volume Assurance with PS does not have a quick variable response to changes in tidal volume.
– It is designed to adjust and maintain a constant tidal volume with each breath over time.
– This benefit often seen with patients who have slow declines in their ventilatory conditions.

• CPAP + time on therapy to reset chemoreceptors for patient1
– Must qualify with RDI > 5 with symptoms of OSA or RDI > 15 without symptoms 2

• No improvement in daytime sleepiness after 30 days, try alternatives – Medications + CPAP – Auto Servo Ventilation– Bi-Level therapy with backup rate

Complex sleep apnea patients may challenge even the most experienced, skilled sleep technologist!
• Complex sleep apnea patients have multiple pathologies each requiring the attention of the technologist
• Helpful hints for complex sleep apnea titrations
– Obstructive apneas, obstructive hypopneas, central apneas, hypopneas, RERAs and periodic breathing may all be present intermittently throughout the sleep period
– Making the patients 100% normal may not be a realistic goal
– Optimizing therapy within a range the patients tolerates, will be compliant with and makes them much better than they were is an achievable goal
– Patience is key to successful titrations
– If a change is needed and made, Watch, Wait, Observe and Think before making any other adjustments

Pearls
51
Complex physiology and pathology makes many patients difficult to treat.
They are a moving target.
Many times, making them BETTER THAN THEY WERE on the titration night IS a success!
In contrast to uncomplicated OSA patients titrated on CPAP, the titration
doesn’t END on the titration night. It is just
the beginning!
