    Objective: To systematize evidence on the efficacy of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and heart failure. Materials and Methods: A systematic review of international research studies was conducted, obtained through searches in databases such as Epistemonikos, NCBI, PubMed, Elsevier, Google Scholar, and Scielo. These studies were selected and analyzed using the GRADE system to determine their respective levels of evidence. Articles were identified using DECS and MESH descriptors for searches in Spanish and English, respectively. Among the reviewed articles, 50% (5/10) are from the USA, 30% (3/10) from China, and 20% (2/10) from England and Japan. Results: Seventy percent of the studies reviewed indicate that CPAP treatment is effective in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and heart failure, while 30% show that CPAP treatment is ineffective in such patients. Conclusions: Seven out of ten pieces of evidence studied conclude that CPAP treatment is effective in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and heart failure, while three out of ten conclude that CPAP treatment is not effective for these conditions.
