“…Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is the most common type of sleep-related breathing disorders, which was caused by throat obstruction (1,2). The syndrome associates somnolence and one or two of the following symptoms: severe snoring, nocturnal respiratory arrest, repeated nocturnal awakening, non-recuperative sleep, diurnal fatigue, and altered concentration (3 4).…”

“…[2][3][4][5] This breathing disorder may be associated with arterial oxyhemoglobin desaturation and excessive arousals, resulting in sympathetic activation and arrhythmias. 6,7 Because sleep-disordered breathing is also observed in patients with idiopathic cardiomyopathy, 8 the pathophysiological consequences of sleep apnea may further contribute to the mortality of CHF patients with ventricular arrhythmias. Although home oxygen therapy 9 and bi-level positive airway pressure treatment 10,11 improve the clinical condition of sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) in CHF patients, few studies of SAS in CHF with ventricular arrhythmias have been reported and detailed findings and laboratory examinations for arrhythmia in SAS and CHF are needed.…”
