pathophysiology, evaluation, and treatment of congestive heart failure (CHF). Augmented …

Wright et al1 set out to assess the “health eVects” of obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and the
evidence for the eYcacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in this disorder. In …

Abstract Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), either obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) or central
sleep apnoea (CSA)/Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) and often a combination of the two, is …

It is likely sleep apnea is highly prevalent in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).
However, as awareness is low and consensus guidelines do not exist, sleep apnea is not …

Background Cheyne-Stokes respiration with central sleep apnea (CSR-CSA) is commonly

Sleep apnoea is a common and important co-morbidity in heart failure. It affects survival
adversely by:(1) causing nocturnal hypoxia and oxidative stress;(2) raising nocturnal and …

In patients with heart failure (HF), the predominant type of sleep apnoea can change over
