Abstract:
Objective To observe changes of erythropoietin (EPO) and rheology in moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients after the noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) treatment. Methods Healthy adults were selected as control group (n=40) while moderate to severe OSAHS patients were selected as OSAHS group. OSAHS group was underwent NPPV treatment then, Levels of sleep apnea hypopnea index (AHI), sleep mean minimum oxygen saturation (LSaO2) and serum erythropoietin (EPO) were assessed, routine blood test and hemodynam-ic indexes were also checked before treatment and 1 and 3 months after treatment in both groups. Results In both groups serum EPO, blood, blood rheology indexes, AHI, LSaO2 were analysised at each time point by ANOVA repeated measures, all of which show significant different between groups and between each time points within the same group. Indexes in OSAHS group improved with prolonged treatment , but they are in the normal range in the control. Conclusion OSAHS pa-tients with NPPV therapy can significantly relieve hypoxia, reduce serum EPO level and blood viscosity. So NPPV has impor-tant clinical significance in prevention and treatment of OSAHS.
