Objective
To evaluate the relation of central sleep apnoea (CSA) to the severity and short-term prognosis
of patients who experience acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods
Observational study with cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses. Patients acutely admitted
to participating hospitals because of ACS underwent respiratory polygraphy during the
first 24 to 72 h. CSA was defined as an apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) >15 events·h-1
(>50% of central apnoeas). ACS severity (Killip class, ejection fraction, number of diseased
vessels and peak plasma troponin) was evaluated at baseline, and short-term prognosis
(length of hospitalization, complications and mortality) was evaluated at discharge.
