Mathematical modelling of periodic breathing in chronic heart failure to design novel real-time dynamic therapy

Periodic breathing (PB) is common in chronic heart failure (CHF) and has poor prognosis. The most commonly used therapy option involve continuous positive airway pressure, which is not acceptable to all patients. In this thesis I present a mathematical model providing a novel approach to treat PB wi...
