背景和目的:Baveno分类代表了一种评估OSA(阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停)严重程度的新方法,考虑到了严重的合并症:心房颤动,动脉高血压,心力衰竭,中风,糖尿病,通过Epworth嗜睡量表(ESS)表达OSA症状。作者认为,Baveno分类有助于更好地对OSA患者进行分层,可以很好地指导OSA患者的治疗方法和临床监测。与AHI(呼吸暂停低通气指数)本身相比。本文的目的是确认与将AHI用作单个参数相比,将Baveno分类应用于OSA患者的焦虑和抑郁症状评估的优势。材料和方法:本研究代表了一项观察性回顾性研究,该研究是在克拉古耶瓦茨大学临床中心的肺科诊所进行的。塞尔维亚。研究样本包括104例诊断为OSA的患者。根据Baveno分类将患者分为四类(A,B,C,andD).使用IBMSPSSStatistics25.0版程序进行统计数据处理。结果:在我们的研究中,我们证明,与AHI本身相比,Baveno分类在预测OSA患者的抑郁障碍方面更好,按异常BDI-Ⅱ(贝克抑郁量表)评分(值大于十)和HADS-D(医院焦虑抑郁)量表(值大于八)。全组受检患者平均AHI为44.3±19.8,A类患者平均AHI为25.2±10,B类患者平均AHI为25.2±10,53.4±20.6;在C类中,38.2±18.5;在D类中,48.1±19.2.在总样本中,AHI与抑郁发作无关,但就个人而言,抑郁症状的频率最高的是AHI最高的类别(D组和B组),超过一半的受试者得分异常。分析组之间的焦虑障碍(HADS-A)的频率没有显着差异,尽管有显著焦虑的患者数量最多的是B类,根据Baveno分类。结论:我们证明了Baveno分类在现实生活中是适用的,它可以更好地使用问卷调查来评估焦虑和抑郁,并且可以识别需要CPAP治疗的新患者,独立于其他OSAS症状,主要是白天嗜睡。
Background and Objectives: The Baveno classification represents a new approach to the assessment of the severity of OSA (Obstructive sleep apnea), which takes significant comorbidities into account: atrial fibrillation, arterial hypertension, heart failure, stroke, diabetes mellitus, and OSA symptoms expressed through the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS). The authors believe that the Baveno classification facilitates a better stratification of patients with OSA and can be a good guide for deciding on the therapeutic approach and clinical monitoring of patients with OSA, compared to the
AHI (apnea-hypopnea index) itself. The aim of this paper is to confirm the advantage of applying the Baveno classification to the evaluation of symptoms of anxiety and depression in the OSA patients compared to the application of the
AHI as a single parameter. Materials and Methods: This research represents an observational retrospective study that was performed at the Pulmonology Clinic of the University Clinical Center in Kragujevac, Serbia. The study sample included 104 patients with diagnosed OSA. Patients were divided into four categories retrogradely according to the Baveno classification (A, B, C, and D). Statistical data processing was performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics version 25.0 program. Results: In our study, we proved that the Baveno classification is better at predicting the depressive disorder in OSA patients compared to the AHI itself, according to abnormal BDI-II (Beck Depression Inventory) score (value greater than ten) and HADS-D (Hospital anxiety and depression) scale (value greater than eight). The average AHI in the entire group of examined patients was 44.3 ± 19.8, while in category A the average
AHI was 25.2 ± 10, in category B, 53.4 ± 20.6; in category C, 38.2 ± 18.5; and in category D, 48.1 ± 19.2. In the total sample,
AHI did not correlate with the depressive episodes, but individually, the highest frequency of the depressive symptoms was precisely in the categories with the highest
AHI (group D and B), where more than half of the subjects had an abnormal score. The frequency of the anxiety disorder (HADS-A) between the analyzed groups did not differ significantly, although the largest number of patients with significant anxiety were in category B, according to the Baveno classification. Conclusions: We proved that the Baveno classification is applicable in real life, and it is better at evaluating anxiety and depression using questionnaires and can identify new patients who need CPAP therapy, independently of other OSAS symptoms, primarily daytime sleepiness.
