A model of the effects of fluid variation due to body position on Cheyne-Stokes respiration
Cheyne-Stokes respiration is a distinct breathing pattern consisting of periods of hyperpnea followed by apneas, with unknown etiology. One in two patients with congestive heart failure suffer from this condition. Researchers hypothesize that key factors in CSR are the fluid shift from the standing...
