Sleep-Disordered Breathing
What do we know about SDB in pregnancy?
• Habitual snoring affects 5-10% of non-pregnant women but up to 35% of
pregnant women (Redline et al 1994, Bixler et al 2001, Bourjeily 2010, O’Brien 2012)
• In women with pre-eclampsia, up to 85% have habitual snoring
(Izci 2005, Izci2006,Reid 2011, O’Brien 2014)
• OSA affects 3% of nullips in early pregnancy and 8% by mid-pregnancy
(Facco et al 2017)
• OSA present in about 15% of obese women in early pregnancy
(Louis et al 2013)
• OSA present in about 50% of women with pre-eclampsia
(Reid 2011, O’Brien 2014)
Evidence suggests strong link between SDB and hypertension in pregnancy
• 1st case description of SDB and pre-eclampsia in 1996 (Lefcourt & Rodis 1996)
• 1st study suggesting link between SDB and hypertension during pregnancy in 2000 (Franklin et al 2000)
Pamidi 2014
Recent multicenter trial of approx n=3000 nulliparous women found aOR of 1.94 (95% CI 1.07–3.51) for pre-eclampsia in women with OSA

• N=51 pregnant women with hypertension unselected for sleep problems
• Mean gestation 27±7 weeks
• 41% African American
• 78% obese
• 61% reported habitual snoring (snoring ≥3 nights/wk)
OSA in Hypertensive Pregnancies
O’Brien 2014
Baseline PSG results:
- Mean AHI=13.5 (range 0.1-117.2)
- 80% of women had AHI≥1
- 41% had AHI≥5
- 16% had AHI≥15
- 12% had AHI≥30
Pooled relative risk for OSA in hypertensive women who
snored, vs. non-snoring hypertensives, was 2.0 (1.4-2.8)
OSA
O’Brien et al unpublished
There are no validated screening tools for OSA in pregnant women: however we currently have an on-
going study that will develop one…..watch this space
Can we use a screening tool to identify OSA risk?
Berlin Questionnaire
STOP-BANG
Data from n=21 women with BMI≥40:
- BMI≥40, 67% have OSA. Odds ratio for OSA is 5.3 (1.9-14.8)
- BMI≥40 AND habitual snoring, 81% have OSA. Odds ratio for
OSA is 8.7 (2.6-29.2)
- BMI≥40 AND hypertension, 81% have OSA.
Odds ratio for OSA is 3.1 (1.1-9.0) regardless of whether
snoring present or notO’Brien unpublished
What about obesity?
15%-25% of pregnant women with a BMI ≥30 have OSA
(Louis 2013, Facco 2017)
Obesity is complicated:
E.g. when looking at SDB and hypertension, maybe we should not
just “adjust” for BMI in a regression model
Take a step back and review the bigger picture because SDB may
be only part of pathway to HTN and obesity is playing a big role.
We hypothesized that frequent snoring mediates the association of pre-pregnancy BMI and GHTN
New methods in mediation analysis allow us to look at the total
effect of obesity on HTN which has two components;
1) direct effect
2) indirect effect via SDB
Important to only include incident SDB and
incident HTN as this analysis is causal mediation
Covariates 1: education, maternal age, smoking
Covariates 2: education, parity, history of HTN
Potential pathway:

Dunietz (submitted)
Message:
• Frequent pregnancy-onset snoring plays an indirect role in the association of pre-pregnancy BMI and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy
• It explains about;• one third of the total association between maternal BMI and hypertensive
disorders of pregnancy in women who were overweight at the start of their pregnancy, and
• almost half of the total association between maternal BMI and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in women who were obese.
This approach accounts for the temporal aspect of these associations

SDB and Fetal Growth
(Fung et al 2013)
OSA (n=14) Control (n=27)
Serial measures of fetal growth in n=54 controls, n=34 untreated OSA, n=14 treated OSA: - Fetal growth problems defined as birth weight <10th centile, or a slowing of fetal
growth by >30% during the last trimester. - In a logistic regression model, after accounting for co-morbid hypertension, diabetes,
anti-hypertensive and anti-diabetic medications, maternal age, and smoking, untreated OSA was associated with a 3-fold increased odds of fetal growth problems (OR 3.0, 95%CI 1.1-8.3, p=0.03).
- There were no differences in fetal growth trajectories between non-OSA and treated OSA (Kneitel, Treadwell & O’Brien under review)

SDB and Time to Delivery
Some studies suggest a relationship between sleep disturbance and preterm birth although many studies do not.
Delivery is typically measured as either preterm vs. full term OR mean gestational age. No study has yet used survival analysis to investigate this despite delivery being a “time to event”.
Recall: timing of snoring: chronic vs. pregnancy-onset
Now also consider intensity:- Non snoring controls
- Infrequent-quiet snorers- Frequent-quiet snorers- Frequent-loud snorers
Included non-hypertensive, non-diabetic women in order to estimate the impact of habitual snoring without these key confounders
SDB and Time to Delivery
In n=954 non-hypertensive, non-diabetic women, there was an increased hazard ratio for earlier delivery in chronic loud frequent snorers vs. controls: HR 1.60, (95% CI 1.04, 2.45)
These women delivered approximately 6 days earlier; 25% were considered “early term” (37+0 – 38+6 weeks) Dunietz (under review)
OSA and the Placenta
The feto-placental weight ratio, a common metric of the
balance between fetal and placental growth, is reduced as the
severity of OSA increases:

Treatment of SDB in Pregnancy
Population Attributable Risk: If there is a causal relationship
between SDB and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy,
treating SDB could reduce hypertension in pregnancy by up
to 20%O’Brien 2012
If AHI lower when non-supine: avoid supine position
- Up to 1/3 mild (even moderate) cases can be position-dependent
•
Treatment of SDB – Positional Therapy
Zaremba 2015
45-degree elevation:80% of pregnant women spend some time
sleeping supine (O’Brien & Warland 2014)
Typical Positional therapy
Sleep position to promote side sleep
Why is sleep position important in pregnancy?
Posture in late pregnancy can have a profound effect on maternal cardiovascular control
Supine Lateral
Gravid uterus compresses the inferior vena cava resulting in:venous returnejection fraction impaired uterine perfusioncardiac output
“Maternal supine hypotensive syndrome”
http://what-when-how.com/nursing/normal-pregnancy-maternal-and-newborn-nursing-part-4/
Supine sleep independently associated with stillbirth (OR, 8.0; 95% CI, 1.5–43.2).
Supine sleep independently associated with low birth weight (OR, 5.0; 95% CI, 1.2–20.2).
When low birth weight was added to the stillbirth model, the OR for the relationship between supine sleep and stillbirth was almost eliminated (OR, 4.9; 95% CI, 0.80–31.4)
Thus low birth weight appears to mediate the effects of supine sleep on stillbirth.
If supine sleep has a causative role in low birth weight and subsequently stillbirth, up to 17% of low birth weight, and consequently 26% of stillbirths, might be prevented by changing maternal
sleep position.
Risk is higher for term (aOR 10.26, 3.00–35.04) vs. preterm babies (aOR 3.12, 0.97–10.05)( McCowan 2017)
Supine non-supine
Supine sleep position is not good for fetal wellbeing:
In the supine position:
- fetal heart rate variability reduced
- Fetal behavior change from active to quiescence (low oxygen consuming state).
In the presence of a stressor (uteroplacental perfusion or hypoxia), shift to a low
oxygen consuming state would be a protective reaction.
Maternal supine position may be disadvantageous for fetal wellbeing and in
compromised pregnancies may be a sufficient stressor to contribute to fetal demise.

• First line treatment is PAP
• Meta-analyses of randomized studies representing over 1400 subjects show that PAP improves daytime and nocturnal BP.
(Bazzano et al 2007, Haentjens et al 2007)
Treatment of SDB with PAP
• Small studies suggest that BP may be reduced when PAP is used in pregnant women:

Auto-PAP in Pregnant Women with Hypertension
N=48 APAP and n=77 standard of care
• Mean gestation at enrollment: 28.1±7.2 weeks
• Mean PAP use 54 days: (range 5-144 days)
• Mean PAP pressure: 10cmH20 (range 5-18cmH2O)
• Remote monitoring of compliance data using web-based technology
Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) Therapy
O’Brien unpublished
70% of pregnant women were compliant users
Auto-PAP, Blood Pressure, and Medication
Standard of Care comparison group (hypertensive women, no APAP):
- About 55% of women developed worsening BP and ended up with a
diagnosis of pre-eclampsia after enrollment despite antihypertensives
- Other 45% remained CHTN/GHTN although 80% had increased meds
APAP group - Non-compliant users:
- About 65% of women developed worsening BP and ended up with a
diagnosis of pre-eclampsia after enrollment despite antihypertensives
- Other 35% remained CHTN/GHTN although 90% had increased meds
APAP group – Compliant users (≥4 hours/night and ≥4 nights/week):
- About 27% of women developed worsening BP and ended up with a
diagnosis of pre-eclampsia after enrollment despite antihypertensives
- Other 73% remained CHTN/GHTN and only 10% had increased meds
(90% had stable or even decreased meds)
Infant Outcomes
O’Brien unpublished
APAP in pregnancy is associated with improved infant
birth weight: Infants born to women who used APAP
during pregnancy, compared to infants born to women
who did not use APAP, have larger birth weight
(3036±833g vs. 2485±1050g, p=0.08) even after
accounting for duration of APAP use
APAP is associated with longer gestation. Women who used APAP continued
their pregnancies for a mean of 2.5 weeks longer than non-users
(37.7±2.8 weeks vs. 35.1±4.1 weeks, p=0.03).
This is a clinically significant duration that may have
long-term impact on infant health.

Case Report: Treatment of Early Onset Pre-eclampsia by CPAP:
Biochemical/angiogenic markers of preeclampsia improved after CPAP then worsened around 35/40
Pregnancy progressed an additional 30 days after CPAP allowing the infant to gain about 2lbs
PE024:
32yo Caucasian, BMI 24 G4 P1
Fetal demise #1 at 20/40
Fetal demise #2 at 19/40
Premature delivery at 27/40 - NICU
Case 1
All due to pre-eclampsia
Enrolled on trial at 21/40 AHI=1
Did not develop pre-eclampsia
Delivered healthy male infant at 36+2/40 weighing 6lb 1oz
Interestingly, the placenta was normal except for one small infarct,
unlike her previous placenta which showed typical histological
changes. Was this due to APAP?
PE047:
34yo African American, GHTN, BMI 42 G1 P0
BPs at enrollment >150/80mmHg
Case 2
On PAP:
- FHR became reactive
- Maternal SpO2 normal
- Discharged and continued pregnancy for another week
- Delivered healthy 6lb 3oz female infant
Subsequently found to have severe OSA on study PSG (AHI=117)
- Morning after baseline PSG, subject in triage with non-reactive FHR,
reduced FM, and severe maternal desats
- OBGYN plan to deliver that day (37/40)
- Study team paged by OBGYN; decision made to start PAP immediately
