Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Deoxygenated time in night 1-3, number of rapid deoxygenation intervals
(indicating obstruction) in the same period
Secondary outcome
Reported respiratory and cardiovascular complications
Background summary
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are frequently admitted to an ward
where monitoring of the patients is possible (PACU, medium care unit),
typically if postoperatively opioids are used to combat pain. This policy is
debatable as (a part of) the apneuic intervals occur during REM sleep, which is
usually absent during the first postoperative night. In the mean while REM can
occur more frequently in the following night, which could concur with an
increased incidence of apneuic periods.
Study objective
to study postoperative oxygenation patterns in patients with OSA during the
first three postoperative nights and 6 weeks after operation. The results of
these observations will be compared to other patients groups with known
respiratory compromise and a control group.
Study design
open, observational study that includes patients in the order that they appear.
Each study arm will be closed if 30 completely studied patients have been
included.
Study burden and risks
The burden and risks of the study is minimal since the recorder is a small
wrist worn device, which runs on batteries and does not immobilize the patient.
The device is worn during the night. There are no known additional risks of
wearing the device.
