These two 4-min polysomnogram montages indicate (A) CHF pattern with CSA-CSR and a long apnoea-hyperpnoea cycle length pattern (B) non-CHF (i.e., idiopathic) pattern of CSA with short apnea hypopnea cycle length in patients with normal cardiac function. Cycle lengths greater than 45 s helps distinguish heart failure from non-heart failure patterns. CHF, congestive heart failure; CSA-CSR, central sleep apnoea with cheyne stokes respiration.
