SchlaHF-XF- Register. Sleep Disordered Breathing in Heart Failure Register

The SchlaHF XT Registry is a longitudinal study of patients with heart failure (HF). The study aims to understand the importance of diagnosis and treatment of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) on HF with the following questions:

How often does SDB occur in HF? What forms of SDB occur and how are they treated? How does SDB develop over time? How does the heart failure therapy affect SDB? What is the treatment adherence of patients treated? Does SBD and its treatment affect the survival of heart failure patients?
