A Case Of Treatment Emergent Central Sleep Apnea
Abstract
AbstractTreatment emergent central sleep apnea (CSA)  is defined as the persistence or emergence of central apneas and hypopneas during the CPAP titration for the treatment of OSA. It is a main cause for no improvement  with CPAP therapy in an OSA patient. Here we report a case of treatment emergent CSA who presented initially  with obstructive sleep apnea  and later he developed central apnea with CPAP therapy.References
