Central Sleep Apnea (CSA) Primer Central Sleep Apnea (CSA) is a sleep disorder characterized by episodes of apnea (cessation of breathing) during sleep because the brain does not cue the body to continue breathing. Cheyne-Stokes breathing is a subtype of CSA, seen in patients with severe cardiac, neurologic, or renal impairment.
