INTRODUCTION UnfortunatelyEgypt is ranked the 3rd country in the world with highest mortality rates (41.6 deaths/100.000 population) due to road traffic accidents (RTA) based on a revision of the 2007 statistics done by WHOand WHO Global Status Report on Road Safety, 2009
INTRODUCTION According to the Central Authority for Public Mobilization and Statistics the commonest cause of accidents was inattention of the driver (18%) which is failure to pay attention to a particular task (due to distracting influences or to an inability related to a physiologic factor such as sleepiness)
INTRODUCTION Several risk factors for the occurrence of sleepiness at the wheel exist, including: • long periods of wakefulness • time of day while driving • alcohol and drug consumption • work hours • reduced sleep time • sleep disorders resulting in excessive daytime sleepiness, such as obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS)
INTRODUCTION Untreatedsleep disordered breathing is common in commercial drivers and associated with 2 to 7 folds increased risk of motor vehicle crashes.
Sleep Related Breathing Disorders The sleep related breathing disorders are characterized by abnormalities of respiration during sleep. In some of these disorders, respiration is also abnormal during wakefulness.
Sleep Related Breathing Disorders Classification according to ICSD-3
Sleep Related Breathing Disorders Classification according to ICSD-3 Isolated Symptoms and Normal Variants Snoring Catathrenia
Patients with OSAS show deficits across a wide range of cognitive functions including: • attention • memory • psychomotor speed • visuospatial abilities • constructional abilities • executive functions • language abilities (Andreou & Agapitou, 2007)
AIM OF THE WORK Estimate the prevalence and the predictors of sleep related road traffic accidents in commercial drivers attending Mansoura Sleep Disordered Breathing Unit (EGYPT).
METHODOLOGY Cross-sectional descriptive study including 110 commercial drivers attending to sleep disordered breathing unit clinic (pulmonology department - faculty of medicine - mansoura university – EGYPT) during the period of November 2013 to October 2014 where they had diagnostic in lab attended full night PSG . we assess history of sleep related accident or near accidents followed by a nested case-control study where case is those with history of accidents and control without history of accidents
METHODOLOGY The following data was collected: The behavioral history of driving including: mean daily driving hours; mean daily sleep duration, Shift work, Tea/coffee while driving was taken. The clinical examination was done using: Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), Functional outcome of sleep questionnaire (FOSQ), Berlin questionnaire, STOP Bang questionnaire, OSAS score and wake erect Pulse oximetry (SPO2).
METHODOLOGY The polysomnographic results reviewed using: • Apnea Hypopnea Index (AHI), • Basal and lowest oxygen saturation • oxygen desaturation index • Sleep efficiency % • slow wave sleep% • REM % • Arousal index Final diagnosis: obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) or obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS).
METHODOLOGY Then variables analyzed by SPSS version 16. Bivariate analysis was done followed by multivariate logistic regression to detect independent variables of accidents.
RESULTS Prevalence of accidents or near accidents in those with SDB versus those without SDB
RESULTS Behavioral predictors of accidents or near accidents in those with SDB
RESULTS Clinical predictors of accidents or near accidents in those with SDB
RESULTS Polysomnographic Predictors of accidents or near accidentsin those with SDB
RESULTS Multiple logistic regression analysis of independent predictors of Accidents or near accidents in those with SDB
CONCLUSION RED SEA BOTTOM
CONCLUSION The prevalence of accidents or near accidents was found to be high (46.7%) in drivers with SDB .
CONCLUSION • lower Sleep efficiency% • lower mean daily sleep hours • lower slow wave sleep% • lower REM% could be of predictive importance in detection of SDB related accidents among commercial drivers.
