NCT02078778

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect on blood pressure of 3 months of treatment with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Hypothesis:

  1. 1.Central 24-h blood pressure (BP) monitoring hedges day fluctuations in blood pressure more accurately than peripheral 24-h BP monitoring, because the measurement is painless and does not interfere with the patient / subject's activities during the daytime or nighttime sleep.
  2. 2.Blood pressure is elevated in patients with OSA and falls during treatment with CPAP.
