Pulse Wave Amplitude Drops during Sleep are Reliable Surrogate Markers of Changes in Cortical Activity

Abstract: Drops in PWA are associated with a significant increase in EEG power density, suggesting that these events can be used as a surrogate for changes in cortical activity during sleep. This approach may prove of value in scoring respiratory events on limited-channel (type III) portable monitors.

“…A full PSG was not performed because it is more difficult and time-consuming than a PG; therefore, there was no information on sleep architecture, sleep time and quality, and EEG arousals. Consequently, the pulse-wave amplitude was used as a marker of an autonomic arousal [26]; this marker has shown its usefulness in assessing the efficacy of NIV during sleep in children and has also been used to assess the clinical consequences of persistent respiratory events during NIV in children [27]. It would have been interesting to determine the occurrence of hypercapnia after the different respiratory events; however, because of the time lag of the CO2 response, this was not feasible [23,28].…”

“…[18], and the PLMS index (PLMSI) was calculated. As autonomic arousals were considered, the pulse-wave amplitude (PWA) drops (of at least 30% of baseline PWA) obtained from finger photoplethysmography, reflecting peripheral vasoconstriction [19,20]. The number and index per hour of sleep of autonomic arousals were calculated.…”

“…Even though type 3 PMs cannot detect arousals because of the absence of EEG, indirect detection of arousals using surrogate signals have been elaborated. For instance, pulse-wave amplitude (PWA) drops have been shown to be a sensitive surrogate marker for EEG arousals 15. PWA drops is a non-invasive measure obtained from finger photoplethysmography provided by most pulse oximeters.…”

“…Even though this marker has not been validated in the general population, PWA drops sensitivity of 89.1% and 70.9% for EEG arousals were reported in patients with non-invasive ventilation and in patients with OSA respectively 15 16. Moreover the magnitude of PWA drops is associated with the EEG arousal intensity and the use of PWA drops as surrogate for EEG arousal was shown to improve inter-scorer reliability for PSG 17 18…”
