Effect of adaptive servo-ventilation for central sleep apnoea in systolic heart failure on muscle sympathetic nerve activity: a SERVE-HF randomised ancillary study

Résumé

Rationale: Adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) effectively suppresses central sleep apnoea (CSA) but has been associated with increased all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in chronic heart failure (HF) patients with reduced ventricular ejection fraction (HFrEF). All-cause and, especially, cardiovascular mortality in chronic HF is highly correlated with sympathetic tone. This analysis of SERVE-HF data investigated the effect of ASV on sympathetic tone in patients with HFrEF and CSA. Methods: HFrEF patients in the SERVE-HF trial (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] ≤45%, apnoea-hypopnea index [AHI] ≥15/h with predominant CSA) were randomly assigned to receive guideline-based HF treatment alone (controls) or plus ASV. For this analysis, the primary outcome was change in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) at 3-month follow-up. The effects of baseline MSNA and change in MSNA over time on mortality in the main study were also assessed. Results: 40 patients with HFrEF were included in this analysis (age 71.3±11.7 years, LVEF 34.2±7.7%, 57.5% in NYHA class II, 42.5% in NYHA class III, AHI 35.2±11/h). Sympathetic tone evolution during follow-up did not differ between groups (controls: 47.6±8.3 bursts·min-1 at baseline to 44.6±11.2 bursts·min-1; ASV group: 43.0±9.0 to 42.74±9.45 bursts·min-1). The reduction in sympathetic tone was associated with significantly increased cardiovascular mortality in the ASV group, whereas in the control group reduced sympathetic tone appeared to be protective. Conclusions: Suppression of CSA with ASV did not seem to have a significant effect on chronic HF-related sympathetic activation. Simultaneous suppression of CSA and reduction in MSNA was associated with increased cardiovascular mortality.
