Background Ischaemic heart disease including heart failure is the most common cause of
death in the world, and the incidence of the condition is rapidly increasing. Heart failure is …

Background: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has interdependently been related to the
onset and progression of a large portion of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disorders. In due …

Purpose Recent studies found that the non-contact screening device SleepMinder (ResMed
Sensor Technologies, Dublin, Ireland) detects sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) with high …

Background and objective Increases in Cheyne–Stokes respiration (CSR) cycle length (CL),
lung‐to‐periphery circulation time (LPCT) and time to peak flow (TTPF) may reflect impaired …

Abstract Aims The Treatment of Sleep‐Disordered Breathing with Predominant Central
Sleep Apnoea by Adaptive Servo Ventilation in Patients with Heart Failure trial investigated …

The relationship between heart failure (HF), sleep-disordered breathing and cardiac
arrhythmias is complex and poorly understood. Whereas the frequency of predominantly …

Central sleep apnoea (CSA) occurs in∼ 30–50% of patients with heart failure (HF) with
reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and in as much as in 18–30% of patients …

Purpose This study tested the hypothesis that a reduction of pulmonary congestion achieved
by a reduction of mitral regurgitation (MR) severity in heart failure (HF) patients is associated …

Background Unlike the well-established association between sleep disordered breathing
(SDB) and chronic heart failure, the relationship between SDB and severe aortic stenosis …

Objectives Poor sleep quality is common in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). This
study tested the hypothesis that adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) therapy in CHF patients …
