Notes

  •  Background: Sleep apnea occurs frequently among stroke patients, but it is still unknown whether a diagnosis of sleep apnea is an independent risk factor for mortality. We aimed to investigate whether obstructive or central sleep apnea was related to a reduced long-term survival among stroke patients.Methods: One hundred and thirty-two of 151 patients admitted for in-hospital stroke rehabilitation in the catchment area of Umeå from 1 April 1995 to 1 May 1997 underwent overnight sleep apnea recordings at 23 ± 8 days after onset of stroke. All patients were followed-up prospectively for a mean (SD) of 10.0 ± 0.6 years, with death as the primary outcome and no one was lost to follow-up. Obstructive sleep apnea was defined when the obstructive apnea-hypopnea index was over 15 and central sleep apnea when the central apnea-hypopnea index was over 15. Patients with an obstructive and a central apnea-hypopnea index below 15 served as controls.Results: Of 132 enrolled patients, 116 had died at follow-up. The risk of death was higher among the 23 patients with obstructive sleep apnea than controls (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.76; 95% confidence interval 1.05 to 2.95, p=0.03), independent of age, gender, body-mass index, smoking, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, atrial fibrillation, mini-mental state examination and Barthel activity of daily living There was no difference in mortality between the 28 patients with central sleep apnea and controls (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.07; 95 percent confidence interval 0.65 to 1.76, p=0.053).Conclusions: Stroke patients with obstructive sleep apnea run an increased risk of early death. Central sleep apnea was not related to early death among the present patients.
