Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Quyu-Huatan decoction combined with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in treatment with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome with phlegm dampness type.
Methods:A total of 64 patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome with phlegm dampness type were divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table method, with 32 cases in each group. The control group received routine clinical treatment combined with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, while the observation group was treated with Quyu-Huatan decoction on the basis of the control group. After 4 weeks of treatment, the polysomnography (PSG) index (the apnea hypopnea index, AHI, the Oxygen saturation, SaO2, the pulse pressure, PP, the longest apnea time), the degree of lethargy (Epworth sleepiness scale, ESS), the quality of sleep (Pittsburgh sleep quality index, PSQI) and the quality of life (Calgary mass index of life quality index, SAQLI) before and after the treatment of two groups were observed, and the clinical effect was compared.
Results:The total effective rate of the observation group was 87.5% (28/32), which was significantly higher than that 68.8% (22/32) of the control group (Z=-3.187, P=0.000). After treatment, the AHI (8.59 ± 0.93 times/h vs. 18.62 ± 2.44 times/h, t=5.735), the PP (35.96 ± 4.02 mmHg vs. 43.33 ± 4.70 mmHg, t=5.083) and the longest apnea time (11.93 ± 1.86 s vs. 17.94 ± 2.43 s, t=4.863) of the observation group were significant lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), while the SaO2 content (93.07% ± 10.03% vs. 82.36% ± 9.37%, t=5.812) of the observation group were significant higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the ESS (5.33 ± 0.33 vs. 8.73 ± 0.96, t=4.682) and the PSQI (2.25 ± 0.31 vs. 5.68 ± 0.77, t=4.872) of the observation group were significant lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), and the SAQLI (6.12 ± 0.59 vs. 4.36 ± 0.53, t=4.631) of the observation group were significant higher than those of the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusions:The application of Quyu-Huatan decoction combined with noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in treatment with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome with phlegm dampness type can improve sleep disordered breathing, relieve drowsiness, and improve sleep quality and quality of life.
