NCT02273089

Brief Summary

This study intends to determine whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) can reduce arterial stiffness (measured by pulse wave velocity) in nonsleepy as well as in sleepy patients with obstructive sleep apnea .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV)

    carotid-femoral (aortic) pulse wave velocity (PWV) measured by noninvasive piezo-electronic system with Complior(R) (Colson, France).

    Change on PWV from baseline up to three months of intervention

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Apnea-Hypopnea Index (AHI)

    Change on AHI from baseline up to three months of intervention

  • Nocturnal oxygenation

    Change from baseline up to three months of intervention

  • Excessive daytime sleepiness

    Change on ESS from baseline up to three months of intervention

Other Outcomes (2)

  • Lipidic profile

    Change from baseline up to three months of intervention

  • Glucidic profile

    Change from baseline up to three months of intervention

Study Arms (2)

OSA w/o EDS

Males with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea without excessive daytime sleepiness will be proposed nocturnal CPAP (ResMed S9 AutoSet) for three months

Device: CPAP (ResMed S9 AutoSet)

OSA w EDS

Device: CPAP (ResMed S9 AutoSet)

Interventions

nocturnal CPAP for three months
