Management of Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Patients With Heart Failure
Sleep apnea is traditionally classified as obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which occurs when the upper airway collapses due to the relaxation of oropharyngeal musculature, and central sleep apnea occurs when the brainstem cannot stimulate breathing.

Rapid eye movement dependent central apnea with periodic leg movements
Central sleep apnea is a period of at least 10 s without airflow, during which no ventilatory effort is present. Most of the central apneas occur in Non-Rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep.

Craniofacial morphology in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: cephalometric evaluation
Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea is characterized by a reduced airflow through the upper airways during sleep. Two forms of obstructive sleep apnea are described: the central form and the obstructive form.

Cardioversion of atrial fibrillation does not affect obstructive sleep apnea
Background: Sleep apnea is common in patients with atrial fibrillation, but the effect of the cardioversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm on central and obstructive apneas is mainly unknown.

Central apnea and periodic breathing in children with underlying conditions [PDF]
Central sleep apneas and periodic breathing are poorly described in childhood. The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and characteristics of central sleep apnea and periodic breathing in children with associated medical conditions, and the ...

Central Sleep Apnea is Uncommon after Stroke
Objective/Background: Stroke is often considered a risk factor for central sleep apnea (CSA). The goal of this study was to determine the prevalence and clinical correlates of CSA in patients with ischemic stroke.

Sleep apnea prevalence in chronic kidney disease - association with total body water and symptoms
Background Sleep apnea is common and associated with poor outcome in severe chronic kidney disease, but validated screening tools are not available. Our objectives were to determine the prevalence of sleep apnea in this population, to assess the validity
