Central sleep apnea due to periodic breathing

A sleep-related disorder characterized by cyclical breathing patterns where periods of shallow or absent breathing (apneas or hypopneas) alternate with periods of deeper breathing (hyperpnea). This cyclical pattern is caused by an instability in the body's respiratory control system, where the brain doesn't properly regulate breathing effort.

Also known as: central sleep apnea due to periodic breathing, Cheyne–Stokes breathing, central sleep apnea with Cheyne–Stokes breathing
