Common sleep problems in ICU: heart failure and sleep-disordered breathing syndromes.

Critical care clinics

Naughton MT.
PMID: 18538201
Crit Care Clin. 2008 Jul;24(3):565-87, vii-viii. doi: 10.1016/j.ccc.2008.02.004.

Ventilation during sleep is under tight metabolic control, and can be destabilized by upper airway obstruction leading to snoring or obstructive apneas, inadequate respiratory pump muscle activity leading to hypoventilation, and central control instability leading to changes in metabolic...

Neurological perspective on obstructive and nonobstructive sleep apnea.

Seminars in neurology

Abad VC, Guilleminault C.
PMID: 15449219
Semin Neurol. 2004 Sep;24(3):261-9. doi: 10.1055/s-2004-835065.

One of every 15 adults in the United States has at least moderate sleep apnea. The true prevalence is higher, as approximately 0.3 to 5% of adults with sleep apnea are undiagnosed. Sleep apnea has major health consequences; therefore,...

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome: not just another rare disorder.

Paediatric respiratory reviews

Chen ML, Keens TG.
PMID: 15276129
Paediatr Respir Rev. 2004 Sep;5(3):182-9. doi: 10.1016/j.prrv.2004.04.009.

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare syndrome, present from birth, and is defined as the failure of automatic control of breathing. Patients have absent or negligible ventilatory sensitivity to hypercapnia and hypoxaemia during sleep and wakefulness. Therefore,...

Sleep-Disordered Breathing in Heart Failure - A Therapeutic Dilemma.

Circulation journal : official journal of the Japanese Circulation Society

Haruki N, Floras JS.
PMID: 28539541
Circ J. 2017 Jun 23;81(7):903-912. doi: 10.1253/circj.CJ-17-0440. Epub 2017 May 23.

Sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) occurs in approximately 50% of patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction receiving contemporary heart failure (HF) therapies. Obstructive (OSA) and central sleep apneas (CSA) interrupt breathing by different mechanisms but impose qualitatively similar autonomic, chemical,...
