“…Schulz and colleagues 40 recommended sleep studies in all HFrEF patients with LVEF <0.40; however, this idea has not been generally accepted, because of uncertainty about whether and how to treat OSA in this population and the need for treatment goals. 75 Currently, because of no guidelines, the indications for sleep studies to evaluate OSA in patients without HF apply equally to patients with HF: obesity, habitual snoring, witnessed apnea, unrefreshing sleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, and hypertension. Second, subjective excessive daytime sleepiness may be absent in patients with OSA and HF, so do they need CPAP treatment?…”

However, such an approach is not part of the current standard of care [20, 21]. In the subsequent portion of this review, we will first discuss the effect of decompensated heart failure on SDB, followed by the role of SDB in worsening existing cardiac dysfunction.…”
