SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: 1-time: At baseline the ischemic etiology was determined in the medical institution or taken retrospectively from the medical records.Ischemic etiology describes a condition where a weakening or disease of the heart muscle is caused by reduced supply of blood (underlying cause might be the coronary artery). Secondary outcome ischemic etiology describes the cause of heart failure (HF) "ischemic" in HF patients without and with sleep-disordered breathing in percent of the respective study arm/group: e.g. x% of patients without SDB have HF with an ischemic etiology.
