Transmitral flow velocities and times during stress transthoracic echocardiography in patients with myocardial ischaemia.

abstract：AIMS:Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is highly prevalent in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and may contribute to CHF progression. We aimed to determine whether treatment of OSA with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) would improve subjective and objective measures of heart failure severity in patients...
