4 CPAP Intlerance Why patients fail CPAP: CPAP is uncmfrtable Patient may feel CPAP is uncmfrtable at higher pressures despite pressure relief features COPD patients have trapped air/pressure in their lungs, which may increase their wrk f breathing Patient may need higher levels f ventilatry supprt CPAP cannt prvide

12 Bilevel Therapy Bilevel psitive airway pressure, cmmnly referred t by the trademarked names BiPAP, is a frm f NIV (Nn invasive Ventilatin) that uses a time-cycled r flw-cycled change between tw different applied levels f psitive airway pressure (IPAP and EPAP)* * Kushida CA et al.

14 ResMed 2018 Hypventilatin in COPD Patients

15 Hypventilatin & COPD Hypventilatin is nt uncmmn in patients with severe COPD, therefre it is a marker f disease severity. Hypventilatin in COPD invlves multiple mechanisms, including: Decreased respnsiveness t hypxia and hypercapnia Increased Ventilatin-Perfusin mismatch leading t increased dead space Decreased diaphragmatic functin due t fatigue and hyperinflatin Alvelar hypventilatin in COPD usually des nt ccur unless the frced expiratry vlume in 1 secnd (FEV 1 ) is less than 1L r 35% f the predicted value.

21 Central Sleep Apnea and ventilatin VPAP Adapt SV in CPAP Mde CSR Pattern SpO 2 variable 90-98% Pulse rate variable beats per min ResMed 2018

22 Central Sleep Apnea Central sleep apnea (CSA) is characterized by a lack f drive t breathe during sleep, resulting in repetitive perids f insufficient ventilatin and cmprmised gas exchange These nighttime breathing disturbances can lead t imprtant cmrbidity and increased risk f adverse cardivascular utcmes. CSA is cnsidered t be the primary diagnsis when 50% f apneas are central in rigin Unstable ventilatry cntrl during sleep is the hallmark f CSA. Internatinal Classificatin f Sleep Disrders ICSD3. AASM 2014 Eckert DJ et al. Chest 2007

23 The Apneic Threshld In all individuals, there is a required level f CO 2 in the bdy necessary t drive ventilatin Nt necessarily the same in all healthy individuals and may nt be cnstant ver time PaCO 2 If breathing increases t the pint where the CO 2 drps belw this required level, breathing will cease fr a shrt perid until the CO 2 level has risen again (an apnea will ccur) Mst healthy individuals will have ne r tw central apneas during the night.

25 Pathphysilgy f CSA Unstable Ventilatry Cntrl CSA syndrmes are classified in tw grups accrding t the wakefulness CO 2 levels (arterial PCO2). 1. Nrmcapnic spntaneus central sleep apnea/hyppnea. Nrmal r lw arterial PCO 2 when awake and an ver respnse t hypercapnia when asleep Cheyne-Stkes breathing, Idipathic Central Sleep Apnea and Cmplex Sleep Apnea ASV Stabilize ventilatin 2.

26 Prevalence f CSA Prevalence f CSA vary greatly between the varius frms Eg: Mst healthy individuals will have peridic breathing n high altitude 1 Idipathic CSA is relatively uncmmn (5% f patients referred t a sleep lab) 2 Treatment-emergent CSA is in apprximately (3-10%) f bstructive sleep apnea titratin studies 3 High prevalence f CSA existing in patient sub-grups 6.5% SDB patients have cmplex sleep apnea 3 24% piate patients exhibit central sleep apnea 4 31% patients with HFpEF have central sleep apnea 5 Mre prevalent in lder individuals than in the middle aged ppulatin 6. CSR-CSA is als mre cmmn in men and extremely rare in pre-menpausal wmen. Overall prevalence in wmen is 0.3% cmpared t 7.8% in men White DP et al. J Appl Physil Malhtra A et al.

27 Wh Are the Right Patients fr ASV Therapy? ASV Indicatin Fr Use The ASV device is indicated fr the treatment f patients weighing mre than 66 lb (30 kg) with bstructive sleep apnea (OSA), central and/r mixed apneas, r peridic breathing. It is intended fr hme and hspital use. ASV Cntraindicatin ASV therapy is cntraindicated in patients with chrnic, symptmatic heart failure (NYHA 2-4) with reduced left ventricular ejectin fractin (LVEF 45%) and mderate t severe predminant central sleep apnea.

38 VAPS Therapy Main Headline Ges Here ResMed 2018

39 ResMed 2018 The term VAPS, Vlume Assured Pressure Supprt, refers t hybrid mdes f ventilatin that aim t prvide a minimum level f ventilatin by autmatically varying the level f pressure supprt prvided by the ventilatr.

40 Vlume Assured Therapy The aim f VAPS mde is t adapt the delivered IPAP t changes in lung mechanics t assure a defined pre-set tidal vlume (VT) delivery by autmatically adjusting pressure supprt t achieve ptimal ventilatr supprt. Mre stable ventilatin is achieved while: imprving patient cmfrt reducing wrk f breathing ptimizing patientventilatr interactin prviding adequate levels f treatment pressure ResMed 2018

41 Wh is VAPS Suitable Fr? Cntinuus r intermittent ventilatry supprt fr patients weighing mre than 66 punds (30 kg) with respiratry cnditins including COPD, besity hypventilatin, and neurmuscular diseases Chrnic bstructive pulmnary disease Obesity hypventilatin Neurmuscular disease & restrictive cnditins.

43 Why G Vaps? Bilevels/pressure supprt very cmfrtable fr patients Flw based- t start the breath and t end the breath Patients are in cntrl f their breathing Negative- they can t guarantee vlumes- just pressure Using a Vaps mde Still cmfrtable fr patient Yet when patient s lung cmpliance is challenged psitinal sleep stage Vlume will still be delivered ResMed 2018

44 Review CPAP may nt be the device f chice fr specific patients Diagnses will be a big determinant f what PAP machine will be apprpriate fr the patient Gals f therapy will tell yu what machine yu shuld use Stabilize airway Ventilate the patient Stabilize the patient s ventilatin Ventilate and guarantee the delivered vlumes And Remember- cnsistent mnitring can uncver prblems nt picked up n- and enable them t be addressed ResMed 2018
