Abstract

BACKGROUND: The aim of CPAP and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is to correct sleep-disordered breathing and nocturnal gas exchange. The aim of the study was to analyze the results of a systematic home pulse oximetry (Embedded Image ) and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (Embedded Image ) monitoring in stable pediatric subjects on long-term CPAP/NIV or screened for CPAP/NIV weaning, and the consequent interventions in the subjects with abnormal gas exchange.

METHODS: The home overnight Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings of stable pediatric subjects treated with or weaned from CPAP, NIV, or high-flow nasal cannula between January 2017 and March 2018 were analyzed.

RESULTS: A total of 110 recordings, performed in 79 subjects, median age 6 (interquartile range [IQR] 1.5–14) y, were analyzed. Fifty-two recordings (47%) were performed during NIV, 43 (39%) during CPAP, 2 (2%) during high-flow nasal cannula, and 13 (12%) during a spontaneous ventilation weaning trial from ventilatory support. The quality of recording was excellent in 81% of recordings, 5 recordings (5%) had <4 h of recording time, 5 (5%) had artifacts on the Embedded Image signal, and 16 (15%) had artifacts on the Embedded Image signal. Gas exchange abnormalities were observed in 11 subjects with Embedded Image > 50 mm Hg during ≥ 2% of recording time (n = 8), mean Embedded Image ≥ 50 mm Hg (n = 6), mean Embedded Image < 35 mm Hg (n = 3), and Embedded Image < 90% during ≥ 2% of recording time (n = 2). Consequent interventions were (multiple interventions possible): change of device settings (n = 6), change of interface (n = 2), switched to high-flow nasal cannula (n = 1), and a control recording (n = 2).

CONCLUSIONS: A significant number (∼12%) of systematic home Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings in stable pediatric subjects treated with CPAP/NIV were abnormal and may be corrected by adequate therapeutic interventions.

Introduction

The use of CPAP and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is increasing in children for the treatment of severe sleep-disordered breathing or nocturnal hypoventilation.1 CPAP consists of the delivery of a constant positive airway pressure that aims to maintain airway patency throughout the entire breathing cycle. CPAP is the accepted standard treatment for severe obstructive sleep apnea that persists despite upper-airway surgery or in a case of impossibility of surgery, mainly in children with underlying conditions such as morbid obesity or malformations of the upper airways.2 CPAP is associated with a reduction in daytime sleepiness and an improvement of neurocognitive performance, behavior disorders, and quality of life.3 NIV consists of the delivery of a positive airway pressure during inspiration with a lower pressure during expiration, with the aim to assist the breathing of the patient. NIV is indicated for disorders that cause disequilibrium in the respiratory balance with hypoventilation, such as neuromuscular diseases, advanced lung disease, or disorders of central drive. In these disorders, NIV unloads or assists the respiratory muscles, or “replaces” central drive. NIV corrects nocturnal hypoventilation and improves sleep architecture, daytime symptoms of nocturnal hypoventilation, and quality of life.4,5

CPAP and NIV may be initiated in the hospital, in an in- or out-patient setting, or at home.6 The aim of the initiation is to explain and acclimatize the patient to his or her treatment and to choose the most appropriate equipment and device settings to correct sleep-disordered breathing. Adequate device settings are checked, ideally by a titration polysomnography or polygraphy, with nocturnal gas exchange comprising a carbon dioxide (CO2) recording once the patient is acclimatized to his or her treatment.7 During follow-up, a polysomnography and/or polygraphy with CPAP or NIV should be repeated at least annually.7 In clinical practice in children, the adequate correction of sleep-disordered breathing should be checked more frequently because of growth, intercurrent events (such as an increase in the adenoid or tonsillar volume or weight gain), and the possibility of a physiologic improvement (such as observed in Pierre Robin syndrome) or deterioration (such as observed in children with progressive neuromuscular diseases).

Because of a limited access to polysomnography and/or polygraphy and a shortage of hospital beds, we developed a routine regular (every 3–6 months) home recording of Embedded Image and transcutaneous CO2 (Embedded Image ) with CPAP/NIV for all patients on long-term CPAP/NIV followed up at our center. Indeed, we have shown that a high number of stable subjects treated with long-term CPAP/NIV remain hypercapnic during sleep despite the lack of clinical symptoms, normal overnight Embedded Image , and normal daytime blood gases, underlying the need for systematic overnight gas exchange recordings.8 We also showed that this monitoring is feasible at home with a trained staff.9 Because a significant number of pediatric patients may be weaned from CPAP/NIV, we also use home Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings as a screening for CPAP/NIV weaning before performing an in-hospital polysomnography and/or polygraphy.10,11 The aim of our study was first, to analyze the results of a systematic home Embedded Image and Embedded Image monitoring in a cohort of stable pediatric subjects on long-term CPAP/NIV or screened for CPAP/NIV weaning, and second, to describe the consequent interventions in the subjects with abnormal gas exchange.

QUICK LOOK

Current knowledge

The use of CPAP and noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is increasing in children for the treatment of severe sleep-disordered breathing or nocturnal hypoventilation. A close follow-up of children treated with CPAP and/or NIV is recommended to check the efficacy of treatment. Routine monitoring comprises recording of pulse oximetry (Embedded Image ) and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) during overnight hospitalizations.

What this paper contributes to our knowledge

Home monitoring of combined Embedded Image and PtcCO2 was feasible and useful for the follow-up of children on long-term CPAP and/or NIV at home and was associated with a decreased hospital burden for subjects and families.

Methods

Subjects

The study was conducted at the Noninvasive Ventilation and Sleep Unit, Necker University Hospital, Paris, between January 2017 and March 2018. All stable pediatric patients (<18 y old) who were treated with CPAP/NIV or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) for at least 1 month or who were weaned from CPAP/NIV or HFNC during the study period were enrolled. Only subjects in whom a complete correction of sleep-disordered breathing was obtained after CPAP/NIV initiation were enrolled. HFNC was initiated as a “rescue” treatment in 2 subjects with severe obstructive sleep apnea who did not adhere to standard CPAP.12 The Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings were performed at home as part of the routine follow-up every 1 to 6 months. Indeed, in France, home Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings are reimbursed to trained staff of home-care providers of children treated with long-term CPAP.13 Demographic and anthropometric data were collected. The study was conducted in agreement with the French regulations and received appropriate legal and ethical approval from the ethical committee CPP Ile de France II, protocol 2013-A00374-41.

Embedded Image and Embedded Image Monitoring

The routine overnight Embedded Image and Embedded Image recording with the SenTec digital transcutaneous monitor system (SenTec, Therwil, Switzerland) was performed by trained technicians of the home-care provider in charge of the subject. The technician visited the family in the evening and either explained to the parents how to install the Embedded Image and Embedded Image sensor or installed it him- or herself, at the usual bedtime when the subject was falling asleep with his or her CPAP/NIV, and how to take it off after 8 hours to have the drift correction of the Embedded Image signal. The parents were instructed to note on a recording sheet every problem that occurred during the night. The technician came back on the following morning to download the data and transmitted these by secured e-mail to the hospital team. The results were analyzed within 24 h by the hospital team and transmitted to the family and the home-care provider. Different interventions, depending on the Embedded Image and Embedded Image results and the subject’s status, could be decided by the hospital team. These interventions were then performed within 24 h by the technician or the home-care provider, with a consequent control Embedded Image and Embedded Image monitoring. This control was preferentially performed at home or in the hospital when a polygraphy with CPAP/NIV was decided or in the case of an imminent scheduled hospitalization.

Data Analysis

Both Embedded Image and Embedded Image tracings were visually examined. The duration (in hours) of correct Embedded Image and Embedded Image signals was recorded. A recording was retained for analysis and considered as good quality when at least 4 h with correct Embedded Image and Embedded Image signals were available. The following data were analyzed: mean Embedded Image , minimum Embedded Image , time spent with an Embedded Image < 90%, mean Embedded Image , maximum Embedded Image , time spent with a Embedded Image > 50 mm Hg. Nocturnal hypoxemia was defined by a mean Embedded Image < 92% or ≥2% of the recording time spent with a Embedded Image < 90%. Nocturnal hypercapnia was defined as a mean nocturnal Embedded Image ≥ 50 mm Hg or ≥2% of the recording time spent with a Embedded Image > 50 mm Hg. Nocturnal hypocapnia was defined as a mean Embedded Image < 35 mm Hg.

Statistical Analysis

Data are presented as mean ± SD or as median and IQR. Statistical calculations were performed by using the MATLAB R2014b software (Mathworks, Natick, Massachusetts). We used a chi-square statistic test to compare qualitative data. Quantitative data were normally distributed, comparisons were made by using one-way or one factor repeated-measures analysis of variance.

Results

Subjects

During the study period, a total of 110 overnight Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings were performed at home in 79 subjects (Table 1). Seventy-one subjects (90%) were treated with CPAP, NIV or HFNC, whereas 8 subjects (10%) had a recording during spontaneous breathing for a weaning trial. The median age of the subjects was 6 (IQR, 1.5-14) y the majority of the subjects had an underlying genetic and/or malformative disorder.

Characteristics of the Subjects

Embedded Image and Embedded Image Recordings

The quality of recording was excellent in 89 of the recordings (81%) (Table 2). Poor quality of recordings was due to a recording time of <4 h in 5% of the recordings, artifacts on the Embedded Image signal in 5% of the recordings, and artifacts on the Embedded Image signal in 15% of the recordings. No adverse effects, such as skin burns, were observed during the recordings. Thirteen recordings (12%) performed in 11 subjects showed abnormal Embedded Image or Embedded Image results (Tables 2 and 3; Fig. 1). The median age of these subjects was 12 (1-16) y and all had an associated disorder. The median duration of CPAP/NIV treatment before the Embedded Image and Embedded Image monitoring was 7 (1-31) months. Six subjects had an apnea-hypopnea index > 10 events/h before CPAP/NIV treatment, and 7 had nocturnal hypercapnia criteria (5 had a mean Embedded Image ≥ 50 mm Hg and 2 spent ≥ 2% of the recording time with a Embedded Image > 50 mm Hg). The compliance of the 11 subjects with CPAP/NIV was excellent, with a median compliance of 8 (6.5-9) h per night, with only one subject sleeping <6 h per night with his CPAP device.

Characteristics of the 11 Subjects With an Abnormal Overnight Gas Exchange and Consecutive Interventions

A mean Embedded Image ≥ 50 mm Hg was observed on 6 recordings, whereas a mean Embedded Image < 35 mm Hg was observed on 3 recordings. Eight subjects spent ≥ 2% of the recording time with a Embedded Image > 50 mm Hg and 2 with ≥ 2% of recording time with a Embedded Image < 90%. Eight of these 11 subjects were treated with NIV (25% of all the subjects treated with NIV) and 3 were treated with CPAP (8% of all the subjects treated with CPAP). None of the subjects treated with HFNC or on spontaneous breathing had an abnormal recording. The incidence of an abnormal recording was not different between CPAP or NIV users (P = .07).

The following therapeutic interventions were performed after the home recording: an increase in inspiratory pressure (on 6 occasions), change of the interface (on 2 occasions), control recording (4 occasions), and switch to HFNC (1 occasion). These interventions were checked by a control recording at home (6 occasions) or in the hospital (5 occasions). Two subjects with severe nocturnal hypoventilation due to cyphoscoliosis had an in-hospital polygraphy with NIV for a NIV titration study. In 3 subjects, the control was performed in the hospital because of an imminent scheduled hospitalization. After intervention, gas exchanges were normal in 6 subjects, 2 subjects had persistent hypercapnia (one 18-y-old boy with mucopolysaccharidosis and one 9-y-old boy with Down syndrome treated with CPAP in whom CPAP settings could not be improved and with no other therapeutic possibility), one subject had persistent hypoxemia, with 2 subjects were lost to follow-up.

Discussion

This study showed that ∼12% of routine home monitoring of combined Embedded Image and Embedded Image in a group of stable pediatric subjects on long-term CPAP/NIV, after an adequate initial initiation of CPAP/NIV, were abnormal. Our results highlighted the usefulness of Embedded Image monitoring because 11 of the 13 abnormal recordings showed abnormal Embedded Image values without nocturnal hypoxemia. Of note, the normality of the Embedded Image and Embedded Image monitoring in the 13 subjects during a CPAP/NIV weaning was interesting and may be integrated in the weaning process of CPAP/NIV in children.10

This study confirmed the feasibility of home recording of Embedded Image and Embedded Image by trained staff in pediatric subjects on long-term CPAP/NIV. Indeed, the quality of the large majority of the recordings was excellent, as observed in a previous study by our group.9 This recording at home was not only preferred by the parents and subjects but also allowed cost saving because it avoided a hospitalization. Moreover, because the subject remains in his or her own environment, without the stress and disturbance of a hospitalization, the results of the Embedded Image and Embedded Image recording may even be better.9,14 However, artifacts were more common on the Embedded Image (15%) than on the Embedded Image signal (5%), which is a limitation because the Embedded Image results were more frequently abnormal.

Interestingly, only 13 recordings (12%) showed abnormal Embedded Image or Embedded Image values, which is lower than observed in a previous study by our group. Indeed, on a former consecutive cohort, of 65 children treated with CPAP or NIV, 42% of the subjects had nocturnal hypercapnia.8 This difference may be explained by an increase in CPAP and NIV expertise with the use of higher CPAP pressures in young children.15 The information given by the built-in ventilator software, such as objective compliance, leaks, pressure, and tidal volume, also allowed an easier, cheaper, closer, and, consequently, a better follow-up of the subjects.16,17

Abnormal Embedded Image values were more common than abnormal Embedded Image values, which underlined the need of systematic Embedded Image recording with Embedded Image in pediatric patients treated with long-term CPAP or NIV. Of note, abnormal Embedded Image values were preferentially observed in the subjects treated with NIV, which is understandable because the indication for NIV is nocturnal hypoventilation. Persistent hypercapnia in these patients warrants an adaptation of NIV settings and, more rarely, a change of device. These findings led to a recent change of the reimbursement legislation in France in 2017 for the monitoring of CPAP in children.13 Nocturnal recordings of Embedded Image and Embedded Image are now refunded, at 160 (183 US dollar) for a maximum of 2 recordings per year per subject, for children < 16 y old who are treated at home with long-term CPAP. The usefulness of Embedded Image and Embedded Image recording is shown by the efficacy of the therapeutic interventions that were performed in all the subjects with abnormal Embedded Image and Embedded Image values (Table 3),8 with only 3 subjects having the persistence of nocturnal hypercapnia or hypoxemia.

Most of the studies on the follow-up of subjects on long-term CPAP/NIV have focused on sleep studies and not overnight gas exchange. In adult subjects, polysomnography with CPAP, performed 3 months after a baseline titration study, showed that ∼25% of the subjects had residual obstructive sleep apnea on CPAP.18 Similar results were observed in another large study, of 905 adult subjects in whom a change in pressure (mostly an increase in airway pressure) was necessary in 58% of the subjects.19 A follow-up polysomnography performed on 42 pediatric subjects treated with long-term CPAP or bi-level ventilation showed that changes in respiratory support settings were recommended in 65% of the CPAP studies and 36% of the bi-level studies.20 However, the results of the polysomnographies and the criteria for changes in the settings, and, in particular, the results of the nocturnal gas exchange were not available and the recommended changes were only fully implemented by the treating physician in patients in 55% of cases.20 A change in respiratory support settings was made in 66% of sleep studies performed in 45 pediatric patients treated with home mechanical ventilation.21 However, again, the detailed results of the sleep studies and the nocturnal gas exchange were not available.

There are no validated guidelines for the monitoring of long-term follow-up of pediatric patients on CPAP or NIV. The timing of the follow-up visits depends on the age and the medical condition of the patient. The feasibility of an overnight gas exchange recording at home coupled with the analysis of the built-in software of the device represents an easy and inexpensive alternative to in-hospital sleep studies. Indeed, we have shown that the analysis of the built-in software that integrates Embedded Image may be helpful to score residual respiratory events in pediatric patients treated with CPAP.17 However, this “simplified” analysis has not been validated for NIV and is not possible in patients whose weight is below the minimum weight recommended by the manufacturer. Our practice consists in a Embedded Image and Embedded Image recording coupled with the analysis of the built-in software of the device 1 month after the initiation, and then every 2 to 6 months, with at least 2 checkups per year, including one full sleep study with CPAP or NIV, but practice at other institutions and in other countries may vary, with no evidence for a superiority of one practice over another.1,22

Our study had several limitations. This was a single-center observational study on a heterogenous population but which was representative of pediatric patients treated with long-term CPAP or NIV at home. Our results reflected the local experience of a specialized pediatric CPAP/NIV team in a tertiary university hospital in a country that benefits from an excellent national home-care network.

Conclusions

A significant number (∼12%) of systematic home Embedded Image and Embedded Image recordings in stable pediatric subjects treated with CPAP/NIV were abnormal and may be corrected by adequate therapeutic interventions, which underlines the usefulness of routine Embedded Image and Embedded Image monitoring.
