Sleep apnea treatment for better blood pressure control
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have been diagnosed with high blood pressure (hypertension)

This study keeps a record of people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) who also have high blood pressure, to better understand how CPAP is used and what outcomes happen. It may help your care team by contributing your information to a large multi-center study in China.
This study looks at how to manage high blood pressure specifically during sleep, aiming to lower the risk it can cause over time. It may help you if your blood pressure readings stay high at night even if you’re otherwise able to function normally.
This study looks at how improving sleep might affect blood vessel health in people with high blood pressure who don't sleep well. You might join if you have high blood pressure and poor sleep quality.
This study tests whether a simple heart-rate measurement can help detect obstructive sleep apnea (a breathing condition during sleep) in people with high blood pressure. The goal is to find an easier way to screen for sleep apnea, which often goes undiagnosed but can worsen heart health.
This study looks at different types of sleep apnea to find the best treatment for each person. If you are newly diagnosed and haven't tried CPAP yet, your participation could help doctors personalize therapy for better results.
This study compares blood samples from people with moderate-to-severe sleep apnea and those without sleep apnea to find markers that could help diagnose or treat the condition. Half of those with sleep apnea will start CPAP therapy right away, while others wait before starting.
