Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Sleep Related Hypoxemia

    On postoperative night number 1 from 2200 to 0600. Study participation will end within 72 hours of admission.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI)

    On postoperative night number 1 from 2200 to 0600. Study participation will end within 72 hours of admission.

  • Cardiopulmonary Complications

    72 hours

Study Arms (2)

Autoadjusting CPAP (VPAP auto)

EXPERIMENTAL

The intervention will be the use of an Autoadjusting CPAP unit that will be applied to the subject during the 8 hours overnight the first night after surgery (study night). During this time, they will undergo a full night attended polysomnogram in their hospital room.

Device: Autoadjusting CPAP (VPAP Auto)

CPAP arm (usual care)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The intervention will be the use of the subject's own CPAP machine and this will be applied to the subject during the 8 hours overnight the first after surgery (study night). During the study night, they will undergo full polysomnography in their hospital room.

Device: CPAP

Interventions

An autoadjusting CPAP unit is used in place of subject's own CPAP unit during the night of the polysomnography study (the first night after surgery).

Also known as: VPAP Auto

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Known OSA patients well-controlled by CPAP (not hypoxemic i.e. Oxygen Saturation (SaO2) ≥ 89% and post-treatment Apnea Hypopnea (AHI) \<10) and compliant ( \> 3 hours per night) presenting for elective inpatient surgery to MetroHealth Medical Center
  • Elective extremity or lower abdominal surgery
  • Age \>18 years

You may not qualify if:

  • Surgery that may cause hypoxemia from causes other than the effect on upper airway patency e.g. any thoracic surgery, upper abdominal surgery, head and neck surgery.
  • Surgery on the upper-airway.
  • Any condition that may interfere with application of CPAP mask e.g. trauma, surgery on the face, vomiting, naso-gastric intubation etc.
  • OSA treated with a device other than CPAP e.g. Bilevel positive pressure or V-Positive Airway Pressure
  • OSA needing very high levels of CPAP i.e. \> 16 cms to achieve adequate control
  • OSA or other underlying cardiopulmonary conditions that require supplemental oxygen
  • Patients with decompensated congestive heart failure or advanced Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) (FEV1\<35% of predicted)
  • Patients with neuromuscular impairment
  • Patients with central sleep apnea
  • Pregnant patients
  • Decisional impaired subjects who are not able to consent
