Zusammenfassung

Aufgrund der Interaktion zwischen den Organsystemen und wegen gemeinsamer Risikofaktoren leiden Patienten mit Lungenerkrankungen häufig zusätzlich an extrapulmonalen Erkrankungen. Im Rahmen dieses Beitrags sollen daher die Auswirkungen ausgewählter Erkrankungen des respiratorischen Systems auf das Herz-Kreislauf-System und die Niere genauer betrachtet werden. Eine fortgeschrittene chronisch-obstruktive Lungenerkrankung (COPD) führt häufig zu einer prognostisch ungünstigen Druckerhöhung im Lungenkreislauf. Therapeutisch steht diesbezüglich die Therapie der zugrunde liegenden Lungenerkrankung im Vordergrund, die gezielte Therapie der pulmonalen Hypertonie sollte nur gemäß der invasiven Diagnostik und individualisiert erfolgen. Bislang völlig unbeachtet bleibt, dass es erhebliche Überschneidungen von COPD und Herzinsuffizienz mit erhaltener Ejektionsfraktion gibt, was beim diagnostischen Prozedere berücksichtigt werden sollte. Die obstruktive Schlafapnoe (OSA) wirkt sich auf vielfältige Weise ungünstig auf das Herz-Kreislauf-System aus und ist ein unabhängiger Risikofaktor für kardiovaskuläre Erkrankungen. „Continuous positive airway pressure“ stellt die etablierte Therapie der OSA dar und verbessert Tagesmüdigkeit und Lebensqualität, ein Effekt auf kardiovaskuläre Ereignisse konnte in randomisierten Studien insbesondere für asymptomatische Patienten bislang allerdings nicht nachgewiesen werden. Patienten mit chronischer Hyperkapnie leiden häufig unter peripheren Ödemen. Pathophysiologisch sind hier neben der pulmonalen Vasokonstriktion auch direkte Auswirkungen der Hyperkapnie auf die renale Durchblutung von Bedeutung. Die Rekompensation dieser Patienten erfordert neben der Gabe von Diuretika immer auch die Korrektur der Hyperkapnie mittels nichtinvasiver Beatmungstherapie.

Abstract

Comorbidities are frequently observed in patients suffering from pulmonary diseases due to shared risk factors and intricate interactions between various organ systems. This article aims to characterize the effects of selected diseases of the respiratory system on the cardiovascular system and kidneys. Advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) often leads to a prognostically unfavorable increased pressure in the pulmonary circulation. In this respect treatment of these patients is primarily aimed at the underlying pulmonary disease and targeted treatment of the pulmonary hypertension should only be carried out according to invasive diagnostics and in an individualized manner. So far, the fact that there is a substantial overlap between COPD and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction has been completely ignored, which should be considered in the diagnostic procedure. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has several unfavorable effects on the cardiovascular system and has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. The established treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been shown to improve daytime sleepiness and the quality of life; however, an effect of CPAP on the occurrence of cardiovascular events, especially in asymptomatic patients, has so far not been demonstrated in randomized trials. Peripheral edema is frequently observed in patients suffering from chronic hypercapnia, which can be explained by several pathophysiological mechanisms, including pulmonary vasoconstriction and a direct effect of the hypercapnia on renal blood flow. Apart from the administration of diuretics, recompensation of such patients always requires treatment of the hypercapnia by noninvasive ventilation.
