The study found that patients with OSA have increased abnormalities in 24-hour ECG Holter monitoring, which are positively correlated with higher AHI levels, with more frequent occurrences of SVT and VPC.
A relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and abnormalities in 24-h electrocardiogram (ECG) Holter monitoring has not been sufficiently documented. The aim of this study was to analyze the relation between the occurrence and the severity of OSA and the parameters of ECG Holter monitoring in a group of patients with diagnosed OSA. Ninety-four patients with clinical suspicion of OSA were qualified for the study (mean age 53.7). All participants underwent a medical history, laboratory tests, 24-h ECG Holter monitoring, and single-night video-polysomnography (vPSG) using the American Academy of Sleep Medicine recommendations. A group of patients with diagnosed OSA was characterized by more frequent occurrence of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and ventricular arrhythmias (VPC). A statistically significant positive correlation was shown between the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) and average heart rate, supraventricular arrhythmias (SVPC) pairs, SVT, and pauses >2.5 s. In regression analysis, higher AHI constituted an independent predicator for the increased number of pauses >2.5 s, SVT, and SVPC pairs in 24-h ECG Holter monitoring. In summary, patients with OSA are characterized by the increased number of abnormalities in 24-h ECG Holter monitoring.
