Sleep apnea and cardiovascular disease: an American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology Foundation Scientific Statement from the American Heart Association Council for High Blood Pressure Research Professional Education Committee, Council on Clinical Cardiology, Stroke Council, and Coun (2008, background): “Although longitudinal data regarding independent effects of sleep apnea on stroke, cardiac ischemia, and lethal ventricular arrhythmias are limited, recent evidence suggests that in patients experiencing sudden cardiac death, those proven to be free of OSA have the greatest likelihood of death betwe”
The epidemiology of adult obstructive sleep apnea. (2008, background): “There is now a wealth of information indicating that untreated obstructive sleep apnea is associated with an increased risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular event (4), a higher propensity of sudden death during sleep (98), and a greater risk for stroke and all-cause mortality (99).”
Association of nocturnal arrhythmias with sleep-disordered breathing: The Sleep Heart Health Study. (2006, background): “nocturnal cardiac arrhythmias of individuals with SDB and provide an explanation for the observed increase in sudden nocturnal death recently reported with sleep apnea (23).”
