We studied 44-year old man with heart failure (ejection fraction -25%). Obesity, arterial hypertension, snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness suggested concomitant obstructive sleep apnoea. Limited polysomnography with Polymesam revealed typical Cheyne-Stokes respiration with mainly central apnoeas (RDI=48/hour). We did not find any obstructive episodes during sleep study. Patient responded to CPAP therapy and apnoea hypopnoe index decreased to 12/hour on 8 mbar pressure.
我们研究了一名44岁的心力衰竭男性患者（射血分数为25%）。肥胖、动脉高血压、打鼾和日间过度嗜睡提示合并阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停。使用Polymesam进行的有限多导睡眠图检查显示典型的潮式呼吸，主要为中枢性呼吸暂停（呼吸紊乱指数=48次/小时）。在睡眠研究期间，我们未发现任何阻塞性发作。患者对持续气道正压通气（CPAP）治疗有反应，在8毫巴压力下，呼吸暂停低通气指数降至12次/小时。
