Abstract:
Objective To observe whether sleep apnea ( SA) affects cardiac function in the inpatients with chronic heart failure(CHF), and the relationship of natriuretic peptide level and cardiac function in patients with CHF complicating SA. Methods Sixty-four inpatients with symptomatic CHF were divided into two groups by polysomnography; 36 inpatients with CHF and SA Capnea -hypopnea-index (AHI)≥5 episodes per hour] and 28 CHF inpatients without SA (AHI
