Exercise program to lower blood pressure in sleep apnea
Part of Brain & nervous system, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a supervised physical activity program can help lower blood pressure in people with obstructive sleep apnea and resistant high blood pressure. It may help you control blood pressure when it has not improved despite multiple medications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have obstructive sleep apnea, based on a sleep study score of 15 or higher
- Your blood pressure stays too high even after trying 3 or more blood pressure medicines
- You can get around on your own (you are able to participate as an ambulatory patient)
- You do not have serious, sudden liver/bile problems (like acute liver failure or biliary cirrhosis)
- Your blood pressure is not dangerously high right now (no readings ≥180 top number or ≥110 bottom number)

This study tests whether treating obstructive sleep apnea can help control blood pressure in people with chronic kidney disease. If your sleep apnea is not currently being treated, participation may help your care team see whether safer breathing at night improves blood pressure control.
This trial tests whether treating sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea) can help lower blood pressure in people with high blood pressure. You may join if you have high blood pressure and haven't been diagnosed with a sleep disorder before.
This trial studies whether CPAP treatment can improve blood pressure in people with obstructive sleep apnea. It aims to find out who benefits most from CPAP in terms of blood pressure control.
This study tests whether using CPAP (a breathing machine) for obstructive sleep apnea can improve blood pressure and heartbeat timing. You’ll have blood pressure checked at the start and again after 6 months, along with a sleep evaluation to confirm eligibility.
This study tests a lifestyle and physical activity program as a treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. It is for people who have not tried CPAP and want to see if exercise and healthy habits can help.
This study is looking at a specific sleep-related condition (obstructive sleep apnea) in adults whose blood pressure is not high, and how their blood pressure rhythm changes over the day. If you have sleep apnea, participating could help researchers understand patterns that may affect long-term health.
