Abstract
Breathing disorders during sleep are common in congestive heart failure (CHF). Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in CHF can be broadly classified as 2 types: central sleep apnea with Cheyne-Stokes breathing, and obstructive sleep apnea. Prevalence of SDB ranges from 47% to 76% in systolic CHF. Treatment of SDB in CHF may include optimization of CHF treatment, positive airway pressure therapy, and other measures such as theophylline, acetazolamide, and cardiac resynchronization therapy. Periodic limb movements are also common in CHF.Entities:
