Evaluation of the Apnea-Hypopnea Index Determined by Adaptive Servo-Ventilation Devices in Patients With Heart Failure and Sleep-Disordered Breathing [PDF]
Introduction: Adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) devices are designed to suppress central respiratory events, and therefore effective for sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) in patients with heart failure (HF) and provide information about their residual ...
