, 2011 Publisher Summary Central sleep apnea is much less common than obstructive sleep apnea. The state-dependent CO2 apnea threshold plays a permissive role and hence hypocapnia is an important risk factor for the occurrence of central apnea in subjects at high altitude and in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF).

DeckerMed Medicine, 2020 As part 3 of the three chapters on sleep-disordered breathing, this chapter reviews central sleep apnea (CSA). CSA is defined as recurrent apneic events during sleep in the absence of respiratory muscle effort and loss of neuronal output to respiratory muscles. The most common cause of CSA is compromised cardiac function.

Orthodontic Approach to Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Cases
Turkish Journal of Orthodontics, 2005 Sleep apnea syndrome is a disease which occurs during sleeping and which is characterized by apneic and hypopneic events, low oxygen levels in lungs (hypoxia), blood oxygen desaturation, sleep arousal and/or awakening.

Altitude-Associated Central Apnea in Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Therapy
Sleep ScienceIntroduction At high altitudes, hypobaric hypoxia leads to central apneas in both healthy adults and patients with obstructive sleep apnea. This condition correlates with intermittent desaturation and disruption of sleep.

Management of Complex Sleep Apnea Syndromes (Including Treatment Emergent and Treatment Persistent Central Sleep Apnea) [PDF]
, 2022 Complex sleep apnea refers to patents with obstructive sleep apnea who develop central apneas on continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). It occurs most frequently during the first initiation of CPAP therapy, but can also evolve later on.

Identification of sleep apnea events using discrete wavelet transform of respiration, ECG and accelerometer signals [PDF]
, 2013 Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder in which patient sleep patterns are disrupted due to recurrent pauses in breathing or by instances of abnormally low breathing. Current gold standard tests for the detection of apnea events are costly and have the
