CPAP Titration Study
CPAP Titration – Development
of Central Events
Complex Sleep Apnea:
Definition
Complex Sleep Apnea is a form of sleep
apnea in which central apneas persist or
emerge (CAI >5) during attempts to treat
obstructive events with nCPAP or
Bilevel PAP.
Patient Characteristics
1. > 90% are Male (ref 14)
2. BMI is slightly less than average OSA
patient (ref 16)
3. ? Higher incidence of ischemic heart
disease or CHF (ref 15)
4. Slight predominance in atrial fibrillation,
opiate use (ref 1 and 2)
5. ? Elevated nasal resistance (ref4)
Natural History of Complex
Apnea
• Prevalence of syndrome- 5.7 to 20%.
• In 78%- 92% of pts, CAs resolve within
months in CPAP adherent patients.
• Of pts without Com SA on initial CPAP
titration, 4% developed it on 3 mo f/u !!
•
Ref 1 and 2
Polysomnographic Characteristics
 May have evidence of central events on
baseline PSG (CAI >5)
(ref 1)
 Events more common in nREM sleep (ref 16)
 Elevated Arousal Index (ref 16)
 On F/U CPAP titration in 2-3 months, persistent CA
more likely if severe OSA or CSA >5 (ref 1)
Clinical Impact of nCPAP in
“Complex Apnea”
1. Residual or Worsening Symptoms
(Fatigue, EDS, Depression) Secondary to
Arousals/Disrupted Sleep
2. Higher Incidence of “CPAP Difficulty” (ref18)
3. ↑ Sympathetic Activity (ref 18)

Diagnostic Challenges
1. Increasing number of patients not
undergoing CPAP titration
2. Autotitrating PAP devices vary in ability to
warn clinician of emerging central apnea
3. Failure to diagnose Complex Apnea may lead
to poor compliance and abandonment of PAP
therapy.
4. Overtitration may result in inappropriate dx.

Therapy for Complex Apnea
1. Adaptive Servo Ventilation
2. nCPAP
Close F/U, permissive flow limitation/ additional dead
space
3. Supplemental 02
4. Medications benzodiazepines/ acetazolamide
Adaptive Servo Ventilation (ASV)
 Airway Pressure Device devised for Treatment of
CSA/CSR as well as Complex Apnea
 Automatic Pressure Support (Dynamically
Calculated) to result in Consistent Tidal

Conclusions/ Suggestions
Clinicians caring for all OSA pts need proper
training/ education given prevalence and
natural history of Complex SA.
Difficult to predict patients who will develop
the syndrome.
Prevalence of the syndrome highlights
importance of CPAP titration study in OSA
patients.
Conclusions/ Suggestions (cont)
• Treatment decision generally pertains to ?
ASV vs close f/u on CPAP
• Insurance carriers may impact on these
decisions
• Suggest confirming emergent CAs prior to
ASV titration
• Consider 02 and pharmacologic agents
• Need to consider best therapy for pt, but
sensitive to costs (CPAP titration/ ASV)

PMID: 16931153 [PubMed – indexed for MEDLINE]
POLICIES- The initial portion of this titration study will be performed on CPAP to
assure that CPAP alone will not be an adequate treatment for the patient’s sleepdisordered breathing. During the CPAP portion of the study, attempts will be made to
adjust CPAP downward (to assure central apneas are not due to excessive CPAP
pressure), or upward (if obstructive events are actually present). In patients with
persistent central events or CSB, standard ASV titration will be conducted.

increments, allowing 15 minutes at each setting.
b. If obstructive events are present, increase CPAP in 2cm increments, allowing 15
minutes at each setting.
c. If Cheyne Stokes breathing is confirmed, continue monitoring x 30 minutes to
document the breathing pattern, then change to ASV support.
d. If central apneas persist with reducing CPAP pressure to a level at which
obstructive events now occur (> 3 events in 15 minutes), change patient to ASV
support.
