| Abstract | The dynamic interactions among the peripheral inputs that originate from the chemoreflexes, baroreflexes and pulmonary stretch receptors, together with central autonomic coupling between respiratory and cardiovascular efferents, play important roles in determining the physiological effects that accompany sleep apnea. However, previous modeling studies have focused primarily on specific regions of interest. The purpose of this research is to integrate key features of existing cardiovascular and respiratory models into a comprehensive model ("PNEUMA") capable of simulating the dynamics of cardiorespiratory control in wakefulness and sleep.; The model incorporates a realistic simulation of the wake-sleep cycle, which interacts with the respiratory and cardiovascular subsystems. PNEUMA's predictive capability is validated in both time and frequency domains by simulating physiological responses for different cardio-respiratory states, such as Valsalva breathing maneuver, hypoxia and hypercapnia, obstructive and central sleep apneas, Cheyne-Stokes respiration that emerge spontaneously from combined interaction of separate control systems, as they do in the real patient.; A secondary goal of this study was the investigation of the cardiorespiratory regulation mechanisms leading to heart rate and blood pressure fluctuations during sleep in conditions with normal and disordered breathing. Spectral analyses of the model-simulated variability in heart rate and blood pressure suggest that our model correctly accounts for the key aspects of autonomic cardiovascular control.; The comprehensive cardiorespiratory model is implemented using SIMULINK® (The Mathworks, Natick, MA). The advantages of this form of implementation lie in its modularity, flexibility and platform-independence. |
