Aims Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is highly prevalent in patients with chronic heart
failure (CHF) and may contribute to CHF progression. We aimed to determine whether …

Background: The aim of the study was to study the effect of 6 months of continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) in community heart failure (HF) patients with obstructive sleep …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent among patients with congestive heart
failure (CHF) and may contribute to progression of cardiac dysfunction via hypoxia, elevated …

Patients with heart failure or OSA (obstructive sleep apnoea) have reduced HF-HRV (high-
frequency heart rate variability), indicating reduced cardiac vagal modulation, a marker of …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is an
effective treatment for sleep apnea (SA), although the evidence for improving chronic heart …

Background Therapy with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) provides several
benefits for patients with heart failure (HF) complicated by obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) …

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) causes a variable immediate reduction in the
frequency of central apnoeas and hypopnoeas in patients with congestive heart failure …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) may contribute to the pathogenesis of
congestive heart failure (CHF). Nocturnal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) …

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a serious medical condition frequently associated with
sleep-related breathing disorders, which remain underdiagnosed and undertreated. Recent …
