“…4 Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) Nocturia and CVD patients' background, and the data were included in the validated Nocturia, Nocturnal Enuresis, and Sleep-interruption Questionnaire (NNES-Q), which was modified for this study. 21 Nocturnal pulse oximetry was performed in all patients on day 1 of hospitalization over one night using a pulse oximeter (Pulsox ® -Me300; Konica Minolta, Osaka, Japan) placed on the subject's index finger with a flexible probe. The pulse oximeter was attached at 9:00 pm and removed at 6:00 am the next morning by trained nurses.…”

Background: Sleep apnea is a common condition and a cardiovascular risk factor. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) reduces cardiovascular events and sleep apnea-related symptoms, especially in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), who occasionally experience nocturia, a common problem in individuals of advanced age. Methods and Results:The present study was a prospective, observational study including 1,429 consecutive patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD). A questionnaire on nocturia was administered and nocturnal pulse oximetry was performed. Patients with moderate-to-severe sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) underwent polysomnography, and patients with OSA received CPAP therapy. Nocturia was observed in 561 of 666 patients included in the analysis. A multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that nocturia was associated with oxygen desaturation defined as a 3% decrease (P=0.0335) independent of age (P<0.0001), male sex (P=0.0078), hypertension (P=0.0139), and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) level (P=0.0185). Nocturia was reduced in patients who continued CPAP treatment and they also showed a decrease in the apnea-hypopnea index (45.3±13.6 vs. 2.5±3.7 events/h, P<0.0001), systolic blood pressure (121.6±11.9 vs. 113.4±8.8 mmHg, P=0.0002), and BNP level (57.7 [15.0-144.4] vs. 27.4 [8.5-111.7] pg/ml, P=0.0006).Conclusions: CPAP has the potential to reduce nocturia and risk factors for SDB such as increased blood pressure and BNP level, which may be beneficial in older men with CVD and OSA.

Prevalence and impact of nocturia in a urogynecologic population

et al. 2007

To determine the prevalence of nocturia and associated bother among patients presenting to a tertiary urogynecology clinic and to describe patient characteristics related to nocturic frequency and associated bother. Chart review of sequential new patients presenting to our clinic between June 2004 and May 2005. We recorded patients' response to a question about their frequency of nocturia, the level of associated bother, demographic data, history of chronic medical illness and clinical urogynecologic diagnosis. Seven hundred sixty patients were of mean age 56 (19-95) years. Eighty-seven percent of patients voided at least once nightly, and 60% usually voided at least twice nightly. Forty one percent of patients reported bother >or=5/10 from nocturia. High bother rating was associated with increasing number of nocturic episodes (p < 0.0005) and mixed incontinence (p = 0.012). Nocturia is common and bothersome to women presenting for urogynecologic care. Concomitant mixed incontinence significantly increases bother arising from nocturia.
