In the past, treated for OSA, but treatment was recently discontinued by primary care physician after weight loss and patient’s report of decrease in snoring intensity. Few months later patient was hospitalized two times for hypercapnic respiratory failure, which was attributed to empiric diagnosis of COPD. Patient was discharged with bpap to the rehab, with empirically determined pressures, he did not undergo pressure titration. History.

Data are composite values obtained from a number of studies reporting respiratory function in morbidly obese patients with and without hypoventilation Pathophysiology of OHS ABNORMALITIES OF CENTRAL RESPIRATORY DRIVE VENTILATORY RESPONSE TO CO2 Blunted ventilatory response to hypercapnia May improve with PAP therapy 9 9/6/14 Lep$n Product of the adipocyte-‐specific ob gene, leptin primarily regulates food intake and energy expenditure Leptin is also a ventilatory stimulant Leptin deficient ob/ob mouse – obese, attenuated hypercapnic ventilatory response, rapid shallow breathing pattern, reversed by leptin replacement However, in human OSA/OHS leptin is increased in relation to obesity Patients with OHS have a higher serum leptin levels than eucapnic subjects with OSA matched for percentage of body fat and AHI Serum leptin decreases after treatment with PAP suggests that patients with OHS might be resistant to leptin Effects of chronic hypoxia – may cause leptin resistance How could obstruc$ve sleep apnea lead to chronic day$me hypercapnia? Respiratory effects of obesity cannot be the only determinant of hypoventilation since hypercapnia develops in less than one third of morbidly obese individuals and in only 10-‐20% of obese OSA patients Obstructive apneas during sleep are a major contributing factor to the pathogenesis of daytime hypoventilation in OHS since resolution of awake hypercapnia occurs in most (not all) patients with OSA/OHS treated with PAP therapy or tracheostomy 10 9/6/14 Nocturnal hypoven$la$on induced by sleep-‐ disordered breathing Sleep-‐disordered breathing can occur in the following three forms: Obstructive apneas Flow Effort Chest Abd Sum Obstructive hypopneas Flow Effort Chest Abd Sum Nocturnal hypoven$la$on induced by sleep-‐ disordered breathing Central apneas Flow Effort Chest Abd Sum 11 9/6/14 5 minutes Apnea Interapnea ventilation Pathophysiology apnea Interapnea breaths Considerations of Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome Pathophysiology Fig. 3. Interapnea/hypopnea hyperventilation and carbon dioxide (CO2) excretion. In the first cycle, the interevent hyperpnea is sufficient to excrete the carbon dioxide accumulated during hypopnea. In the second cycle, much more carbon dioxide is accumulated during apnea than is excreted after the event. Multiple cycles of excessive carbon dioxide accumulation during the apneic period lead to hypercapnia. (Adapted from reference 35 with permission.) Upper Airway Obstruction Patients with OHS display increased upper airway resistance in both the sitting and supine position in comparison with obese individuals with eucapnia.47 This may contribute to the increased work of breathing found in OHS patients.48 Respiratory Mechanics Simple obesity impairs respiratory mechanics leading to reduced lung volumes, decreased chest wall compliance, increased respiratory resistance, and increased work of breathing.49,50 These parameters are further impaired in OHS patients (table 2). Spirometric values from patients with OHS typically reveal a restrictive pattern with a reduction in FEV1 and FVC but normal FEV1/FVC. Functional residual capacity, total lung capacity, and expiratory reserve volume oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and work of breathing.30,31,49 Obese individuals have a substantially increased central respiratory drive compared with normalweight patients to compensate for the increased ventilatory requirements.50 In contrast, patients with OHS have a blunted central respiratory drive to both hypercapnia and hypoxia. They do not hyperventilate to the same degree as obese individuals with eucapnia when forced to rebreathe carbon dioxide43,52,53 or breathe a hypoxic gas mixture.53 The blunting of central respiratory drive may result from leptin resistance and sleep-disordered breathing.29,34 Pulmonary Hypertension The incidence of pulmonary hypertension, as defined by a mean pulmonary arterial pressure !20 mmHg, is higher in 12 9/6/14 Chronic hypercapnia In the majority of OSA patients hypercapnia does not occur. Compensation for acute hypercapnia that develops during an apnea is adequate to maintain overall eucapnia for the night. In OHS there is inadequate interapnea ventilation to compensate for CO2 that accumulates during an apnea, with an overall increase in CO2 load across the night. This leads to renal HCO3-‐ retention that further blunts the ventilatory response to CO2 Pathophysiology of OHS EDUCATION Fig. 2. Mechanisms by which obesity and OSA result in chronic hypercapnia.
