Phenotypic Characterisation of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Acute Coronary Syndrome Open

B Tong, Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Sanjay Patel, Glenn M. Stewart , et al. · 2024

A high prevalence of OSA in a mostly non-sleepy population with ACS was identified, highlighting a gross underdiagnosis of OSA among cardiovascular patients. The limitations of OSA screening questionnaires highlight the need for new models…

Cardiac autonomic function in REM-related obstructive sleep apnoea: insights from nocturnal heart rate variability profiles Open

Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Brendon J. Yee, Kristina Kairaitis , et al. · 2024

Heart rate variability analysis in obstructive sleep apnea patients with daytime sleepiness Open

Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Philip de Chazal, Yu Sun Bin, Kate Sutherland , et al. · 2024

Study Objectives Recent studies suggest that sleepy patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are at higher risk for incident cardiovascular disease. This study assessed cardiac autonomic function in sleepy versus non-sleepy patients wit…

Monitoring the sleep health of adults: a scoping review of routine national surveillance systems Open

J. Way, Seren Ucak, Chloe-Anne Martinez, Kate Sutherland, Kristina M. Cook , et al. · 2024

Study Objectives The aims of this review were to identify existing national surveillance systems monitoring one or more domains of sleep health in adults, and to describe the specific sleep health indicators used. Methods We systematically…

P107 Optimizing Obstructive Sleep Apnea Therapy in Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome: A Pilot Randomised Controlled Trial Open

B Tong, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Sanjay Patel, Seren Ucak, Sally McClintock , et al. · 2023

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and oral appliance therapy (OAT) are recommended therapies for obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Recent clinical trials, limited by suboptimal implementation of OSA therapy, have demonstrate…

P108 Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Acute Coronary Syndrome: An Observational Study Open

B Tong, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Sanjay Patel, Seren Ucak, Michael R. Skilton , et al. · 2023

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. CPAP therapy is the primary treatment for OSA and is known to improve long term cardiovascular health outcomes. Recent neutral findings of randomised clinical tria…

O037 Diagnostic Accuracy of OSA Screening Tools for Acute Coronary Syndrome Open

B Tong, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Sanjay Patel, Michael R. Skilton, Sally McClintock , et al. · 2023

Obstructive sleep apnoea(OSA) is associated with cardiovascular diseases including acute coronary syndrome(ACS). Current estimates suggest some 70% of patients with ACS have OSA. OSA in this population remains under-recognised. This high p…

Effect of mandibular advancement splint therapy on cardiac autonomic function in obstructive sleep apnoea Open

Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Yu Sun Bin, Philip de Chazal , et al. · 2023

Purpose This study aimed to evaluate the effect of mandibular advancement splint (MAS) therapy on cardiac autonomic function in patients with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) using heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Methods Electrocardio…

The effect of obstructive sleep apnea therapy on cardiovascular autonomic function: a systematic review and meta-analysis Open

Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Yu Sun Bin, Kate Sutherland, Seren Ucak, Philip de Chazal , et al. · 2022

Study Objectives Autonomic function is impaired in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and may mediate the association between OSA and cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effect of OSA therapy on autonomic function through a systematic revi…

Does obstructive sleep apnoea modulate cardiac autonomic function in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation? Open

Anna M. Mohammadieh, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Seren Ucak, Philip de Chazal , et al. · 2022

Purpose The autonomic nervous system may mediate acute apnoea–induced atrial fibrillation (AF). We compared cardiac autonomic function in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) patients with and without obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). Method…

P151 Short-term mandibular advancement splint therapy for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea improves parasympathetic modulation Open

Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Yu Sun Bin, Philip de Chazal , et al. · 2021

Introduction Altered autonomic function (specifically, sympathoexcitation and vagal withdrawal) contributes to cardiovascular risk. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is associated with altered autonomic function. Heart rate variability (HRV) …

P095 Heart Rate Variability during Sleep in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation patients with and without Obstructive Sleep Apnoea Open

Anna M. Mohammadieh, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Seren Ucak, Philip de Chazal , et al. · 2021

Introduction Physiological studies have demonstrated the importance of the autonomic nervous system in mediating acute apnoea-induced atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to compare Heart Rate Variability (HRV) markers of autonomic function …

O004 Obstructive sleep apnoea severity is associated with parasympathetic withdrawal in coronary artery disease Open

Seren Ucak, Hasthi U. Dissanayake, Kate Sutherland, Yu Sun Bin, Michael R. Skilton , et al. · 2021

Introduction Patients with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) are exposed to myocardial ischemia and hypoxia, resulting in altered autonomic function. Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is highly prevalent in CAD and is associated with increased sy…
