It is generally seen as an indicator for a negative prognosis, even if no distinction in degree is known or understood. This paper aims to improve on existing attempts by creating a quantification of the behavior of the dynamic desaturation process of oxygen in the blood. We performed this work on a cohort of 11 subjects with CHF, reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, and CSR. The dynamic desaturation process was evaluated according to changes to peripheral capillary oxygenation SpO2 resulting from highly nonlinear relationships in the ventilatory system perturbed by periodic breathing. Hypoxaemic burden expressed as a static index T90 was compared to a novel relative desaturation index RDI, developed in this paper. While T90 represents a single value calculated using a static cut-off value of 90%\u2008SpO2, the RDI is more sensitive to dynamic influences as it uses the specific maximum change in saturation for each CSR episode. The threshold of T90=22minper night as suggested by Oldenburg et al. could not be confirmed to predict survival, but all central apneas resulting in a relative desaturation of SpO2 above a cut-off value of 8% were a 100% positive predictor of mortality. The RDI proved sufficiently stable in intraindividual measurements across CSR epochs. Across the cohort, it showed a bimodal distribution for the deceased group, indicative of a possible aetiological difference. Hence, it is our conclusion that a dynamic approach to analyse desaturation of oxygen during Cheyne-Stokes respiration is to be strongly favoured over a static approach to analysis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1063\/1.5039601","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,11]],"date-time":"2018-10-11T16:02:50Z","timestamp":1539273770000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1063\/aip-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Is dynamic desaturation better than a static index to quantify the mortality risk in heart failure patients with Cheyne-Stokes respiration?"],"prefix":"10.1063","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Philine","family":"Granitza","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Cardiovascular Physics, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin 1 , 10099 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7529-841X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jan F.","family":"Kraemer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Cardiovascular Physics, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin 1 , 10099 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christoph","family":"Schoebel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisziplin\u00e4res Schlafmedizinisches Zentrum, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin 2 , 10117 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4304-0112","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Thomas","family":"Penzel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisziplin\u00e4res Schlafmedizinisches Zentrum, Charit\u00e9-Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin 2 , 10117 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"International Clinical Research Center, St. Anne\u2019s University Hospital Brno 3 , 656 91 Brno, Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5926-4276","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"J\u00fcrgen","family":"Kurths","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Cardiovascular Physics, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin 1 , 10099 Berlin, Germany"},{"name":"Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) 4 , 14412 Potsdam, Germany"},{"name":"Institute for Complex Systems and Mathematical Biology, University of Aberdeen 5 , Aberdeen AB24 3UE, United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Niels","family":"Wessel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physics, Cardiovascular Physics, Humboldt-Universit\u00e4t zu Berlin 1 , 10099 Berlin, Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"317","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,10,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023080802535628100_c1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"809","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehs046","article-title":"Importance and management of chronic sleep apnoea in cardiology","volume":"34","year":"2013","journal-title":"Eur.
