NCT02624297

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that chemoreflex response of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) during hypoxia and hypercapnia will be increased in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients and that the presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) will potentiate these responses. And, that the exercise training would decrease the chemoreflex response of MSNA in these patients.

    baseline and after 4 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Endothelial Function

    baseline and after 4 months

  • Neurovascular Control

    baseline and after 4 months

  • Inflammatory markers

    baseline and after 4 months

  • Quality of Life

    baseline and after 4 months

  • Anxiety Trait and State

    baseline and after 4 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
