In this bonus episode of the EMJ podcast, Dr. Douglas Bradley is joining our host Dr Hannah Moir to discuss the recent outcomes from the ADVENT-HF randomised clinical trial. The discussion revolves around the relationship between heart failure and co-existing obstructive and/or central sleep apnoea. Dr Bradley considers the use of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV), a non-invasive positive airway therapy, and provides insights on the trial outcomes. He also delves into the mechanism of action underlying ASV and discusses future developments in the sleep and cardiovascular space.
