ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Pulse transit time (PTT) derived by ECG and plethysmographic signal can be a promising alternative to invasive or oscillometry-based blood pressure (BP) monitoring in sleep laboratories because it does not cause arousals from sleep. Therefore, this study assessed the validity of PTT for BP monitoring under sleep laboratory-like conditions.METHODS:
Ten volunteers (55.8 ± 19.6 years), 12 patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF; 67.3 ± 8.6 years), and 14 patients with Nizza class I pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH; 59.5 ± 13.4 years) performed different breathing patterns to simulate nocturnal sleep-disordered breathing (SDB). BP was measured at least every 15 min over 1 h using oscillometry (Task Force Monitor™) and PTT (SOMNOscreen™) devices in free breathing conditions and during SDB simulation (alternating phases of hyperventilation and apneas).RESULTS:
One hundred forty-two points of measurements were collected. No difference was found in both mean systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP) between oscillometric PTT-based BP measurements in the whole population and throughout the whole recording (SBP 111.3 ± 15.1 mmHg versus 110.0 ± 14.7 mmHg, p = 0.051; DBP 69.9 ± 12.2 versus 69.9 ± 14.2 mmHg, p = 0.701). Likewise, no significant difference in SBP and DBP was found between the two methods in the subgroups of healthy subjects, HFrEF patients and PAH patients, both in free breathing conditions (p > 0.05) and during SDB simulation (p > 0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
When monitoring BP in healthy subjects, and in patients with HFrEF or PAH, PTT provides a BP estimation comparable with oscillometric measurement, though slightly inaccurate, both in the condition of regular and unstable breathing.Palabras clave
