Abstract

Purpose

To evaluate whether or not continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in pregnancies complicated by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with a decrease in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.

Methods

This was a retrospective cohort study of perinatal outcomes in women who underwent objective OSA testing and treatment as part of routine clinical care during pregnancy. Where diagnostic criteria for OSA were reached (respiratory event index (REI) ≥ 5 events per hour), patients were offered CPAP therapy. Obstetrical outcomes were compared between the control group (no OSA), the group with untreated OSA (OSA diagnosed, not CPAP compliant), and the group with treated OSA (OSA diagnosed and CPAP compliant), with CPAP compliance defined as CPAP use ≥ 4 h, 70% of the time or greater. A composite hypertension outcome combined diagnoses of gestational hypertension (gHTN) and preeclampsia (PreE) of any severity.

Results

The study comprised outcomes from 177 completed pregnancies. Our cohort was characterized by obesity, with average body mass indices > 35 kg/m2, and average maternal age > 30 years old. CPAP was initiated at an average gestational age of 23 weeks (12.1–35.3 weeks), and average CPAP use was 5.9 h (4–8.5 h). The composite hypertension outcome occurred in 43% of those without OSA (N = 77), 64% of those with untreated OSA (N = 77), and 57% of those with treated OSA, compliant with CPAP (N = 23) (p = 0.034).

Conclusion

Real-world data in this small study suggest that CPAP therapy may modulate the increased risk of hypertensive complications in pregnancies complicated by OSA.

KI erlaubt neue Einsichten in die Krebsprognose

Forschende sind in komplexen Real-World-Daten des Westdeutschen Tumorzentrums auf bisher weniger beachtete Zusammenhänge von bestimmten Risikomarkern mit der Prognose gestoßen. Möglich gemacht hat’s ein Verfahren namens „erklärbare KI“, mit dem sich hunderte Tumor- und Patientenmerkmale gleichzeitig betrachten lassen.
