Trial summary

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is complicated by considerable cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, at least partly due to hypertension. Nocturnal hypoxia, hypercapnia and acidosis stimulate chemoreceptors and presumably increased secretion of vasoactive hormones which might be responsible for hypertension in… Read more about this study

About this study

Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is complicated by considerable cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, at least partly due to hypertension. Nocturnal hypoxia, hypercapnia and acidosis stimulate chemoreceptors and presumably increased secretion of vasoactive hormones which might be responsible for hypertension in these patients.

The aim of this study is to measure the secretion of vasoactive hormones at night and to analyse the relationship between vasoactive hormones, oxygen saturation and the blood pressure at night.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
