Abstract
Background: Central sleep apnea (CSA) has been shown to improve with beta-blocker use in heart failure patients. It is unknown if the overall prevalence of CSA has decreased since the introduction of beta-blockers. Recent publications have reported that the addition of beta-blockers to the medical regimen of a patient with CSA has been shown to decrease the severity of CSA (Tamura 2009). Therefore, it is possible that CSA and SDB has decreased in overall prevalence with the use of beta-blockers.
