OBJECTIVE: To discuss the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment for functional cardiac arrhythmias combined with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome. METHODS:Fifty-six OSAHS patients combined functional cardiac arrhythmia were randomized divided into two groups. The 28 patients in the control group were treated with metoprolol according to cardiac guidelines, the other 28 cases in the experimental group were treated with CPAP therapy combined with metoprolol. AHI and the lowest oxygen saturation (LSaO2) were tested before and after treatment. RESULTS: The efficiency rates were 57.1% and 17.9% in experimental and control group respectively, with statistical difference (χ2 = 7.62, P < 0.01). Total effective rates were 85.7% and 53.6% respectively, with statistical difference (χ2 = 5.41, P < 0.05). In the experimental group, there were three treatment subgroups. After treatment, AHI and the lowest oxygen saturation were significantly different (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION:CPAP treatment can effectively eliminate respiratory disturbance index, improve the symptoms of hypooxygen at night, and effectively improve the therapeutic effect of functional cardiac arrhythmias in OSAHS patients combined with functional arrhythmia.
