Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary end point(s): Number of apnoea/hypopnoea per hour (AHI: apnea hypopnoea index) at cardiorespiratory monitoring;Main Objective: To evaluate the clinical effects of carbon dioxide administration using a dynamic flow (cosine shape) in heart failure patients with central sleep apnea syndrome. This is a phase 2 trial evaluating the treatment efficacy.;Secondary Objective: Neurohormonal status and, in particular, adrenergic drive assessment Arrhythmias at electrocardiographic monitoring Sleep architecture Sleep quality and daytime fatigue Cardiac haemodynamics
