This concern is buoyed by the relatively elevated residual apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), which averaged between 6.2–6.7 events/h, and ranged as high as 50 events/h. Since the device would register the resultant apneas or decline in minute ventilation (VE), the servomechanism would increase pressure support, resulting in increased intrathoracic pressures and/or increased VE. Another concern was that delivery of a minimum pressure support (PSmin) of 3 may have driven VE excessively high. The combinations of higher intrathoracic pressure leading to reduced cardiac output along with hyperventilation leading to arrhythmogenic alkalosis may have contributed to the worse outcomes. Malhotra et al sought to use a large telemonitoring database to determine if there was a relationship between EPAP or PS and VE or peak pressures.With these concerns in mind, their study had several main findings. First, PSmin had no clinically significant effect on VE or respiratory rate over a wide range of PSmin. This suggests that the previously raised concerns that PSmin drove excessive VE may be unfounded. Secondly, average median VE was similar in patients using a fixed EPAP and those with an auto-adjusting EPAP. This suggests that the prior hypothesis that low EPAP may have led to increased PS with resultant hyperventilation should be rejected, but we cannot really conclude that because fixed EPAP and autoEPAP settings were similar and higher than in the SERVE-HF study (median 8.0 ± 2.5 CWP in this study vs 5.5–6.1 CWP in the SERVE-HF trial).1,4 It is unfortunate that we do not have actual VE data from the SERVE-HF trial that could be compared with this more contemporary dataset.Mining large telemonitoring databases provides some advantages.2,3 In this instance we have data from nearly 64,000 patients, allowing evaluation of a wide range of ASV settings over a long time with significant statistical power. The large dataset helps us understand what to expect for pressures, leak, residual AHI, and adherence over broad populations using it in real life.2 However, there are also significant limitations. Because it is observational, we learn only about those who have access to and use this therapy. Since nearly a quarter of patients who are given a prescription for PAP never start using it, this almost certainly biases the study population.9 These data provide no demographic, diagnostic, or comorbidity information, and therefore represent a heterogeneous population. We can’t make any secure inferences about what, for example, the mean EPAP or PS settings are or what the VE or AHI measures are for patients with HFrEF and CSA. We simply don’t know. Because of this, I’m not sure that these data shed as much light on the concerns about SERVE-HF as we would like.However, these new data tell us some important practical things. In our practice, we should expect higher adherence than has been seen in many of the clinical trials (eg > 6 h/d in Malhotra et al vs 3.4 h/d in the SERVE-HF trial), perhaps because we treat patients who are more symptomatic or because patients receive better support in clinical practice.10 Previously, I often would begin ASV treatments with PSmin at 3 CWP, PSmax at 15 CWP, and adjust these only when I encountered difficulties during PSG or in follow-up. These new data suggest that I should consider setting the PS based upon the patient’s breathing comfort right from the beginning, perhaps beginning with a PSmin of 0 CWP, without a priori expectation that this will significantly affect the delivered VE. These data provide new information to guide assessments during follow-up. A residual AHI of around 5 events/h is associated with higher adherence than when the residual is 10 events/h, even perhaps at the risk of using a higher EPAP or inspiratory positive airway pressure (IPAP), because higher pressures were not associated with worse adherence. The data also suggest we ought to pay significant attention to reducing leak, perhaps targeting a median leak less than 4 L per minute.Large telemonitoring databases do provide useful information, but they can’t answer certain questions as they are currently configured. However, we will be able to learn so much more as we find the ways to combine real-world observational data with user-specific clinical data, all while preserving needed privacy.11DISCLOSURE STATEMENTThe author has seen and approved the final manuscript and reports no conflicts of interest.REFERENCES1.
