Positive Airway Pressure Therapy for Sleep Disordered Breathing in Congestive Heart Failure is Associated with Reduction in Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure
Author(s): Tan M , Tavela R , Lee K , Willes L , Mather P and Sharma S
Background: Sleep disordered breathing and pulmonary hypertension are both highly prevalent in patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Since (SDB) has been shown to increase pulmonary pressures, we hypothesized that initiation of positive airway pressure (PAP) may reduce pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) in compliant patients.
Methods: A total of 125 consecutive CHF patients admitted for decompensation were screened. Of these patients, 18 met inclusion criteria for the s... view more»
