Abstract
Recurrent nocturnal hypoxaemia, suggestive of sleep-disordered breathing, is frequent in systemic AL amyloidosis. The higher incidence in cardiac amyloidosis highlights CSA and recurrent hypoxia as possible mechanisms for morbidity/mortality in these cases. A detailed polysomnography study is planned to clarify and further investigate these findings.
