In addition to covering the diagnosis of these conditions, the book discusses coexistent pathologies such as arrhythmias and heart failure. It is the first to focus on the effects of surgical and transcatheter techniques on sleep-disordered breathing. The positive impact of these interventions on sleep respiration and the resulting benefits for mitral valve repair are meticulously analyzed, making it a valuable resource for understanding and treating these interconnected conditions.
- Provides a comprehensive update regarding the pathophysiological interplay between cardiovascular disease and sleep-disordered breathing
- Covers the diagnosis and treatment of mitral regurgitation and sleep disordered breathing, as well as therapies affecting both pathologies
- Presents novel concepts on the interventional management of mitral regurgitation and its effects on sleep patterns and sleep-disordered breathing
