Contribution of central sleep apnea to severe sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome
Abstract Purpose Central sleep apnea (CSA) is usually distinguished from obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In fact, CSA is often a component of severe sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (SAHS), rather than occurring alone. We investigated the clinical characteristics and polysomnography (PSG) parameters of CSA components in ...
