Abstract Obejctive  Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) increases left ventricular transmural pressure more than central sleep apnoea (CSA) owing to negative intrathoracic pressure swings. We tested the hypothesis that the severity of OSA, and not CSA, is therefore associated with spheric cardiac remodelling after acute myocardial infarction. Methods  This sub-analysis of a prospective observational study included 24 patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention. Spheric remodelling, calculated according to the sphericity index, was assessed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging at baseline and 12 weeks after acute myocardial infarction. OSA and CSA [apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI) ≥ 5/hour] were diagnosed by polysomnography. Results  Within 12 weeks after acute myocardial infarction, patients with OSA exhibited a significant increase in systolic sphericity index compared to patients without sleep-disordered breathing (no SDB) and patients with CSA (OSA vs. CSA vs. no SDB: 0.05 ± 0.04 vs. 0.01 ± 0.04 vs. − 0.03 ± 0.03, p = 0.002). In contrast to CSA, the severity of OSA was associated with an increase in systolic sphericity index after accounting for TIMI-flow before percutaneous coronary intervention, infarct size, pain-to-balloon-time and systolic blood pressure [OSA: B (95% CI) 0.443 (0.021; 0.816), p = 0.040; CSA: 0.193 (− 0.134; 0.300), p = 0.385]. Conclusion  In contrast to CSA and no SDB, OSA is associated with spheric cardiac remodelling within the first 12 weeks after acute myocardial infarction. Data suggest that OSA-related negative intrathoracic pressure swings may contribute to this remodelling after acute myocardial infaction.
