A 61-year-old man who was being treated with hemodialysis (HD) for end-stage renal disease presented with symptoms of severe congestive heart failure (CHF). Removing excess intravascular fluid during HD was difficult due to the patient's chronic hypotension induced by severe left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. The application of adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) increased the patient's cardiac output and blood pressure during HD, thus resulting in the effective removal of excess intravascular fluid. Therefore, ASV may be effective for treating CHF in HD patients with LV dysfunction and chronic hypotension.
