First of all&#44; some of the patients&#44; because of problems due to reimbursement&#44; were not treated with ASV although they had indication to start that mode of ventilation mode&#44; so the number of the patients in the ASV group was small&#46; Furthermore&#44; as the study is retrospective&#44; not all the patients had previously had an echocardiogram before PAP therapy so the comparison between the two ventilator modes concerning cardiac function cannot be made with confidence because of the small number of patients who had echocardiogram before and after PAP therapy&#46;</p><a name="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs"></a><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle">Conclusion</span><p class="elsevierStylePara">ASV is an effective treatment in patients with treatment-emergent CSA&#44;
