Obstructive sleep apnea in patients with PAD
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how common obstructive sleep apnea is in people with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Participants will have a sleep test as part of their regular care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease (PAD).
- You agree to let the researchers use your medical data without your name.
- You are scheduled to have a sleep test (polygraphy) within the next month as part of your routine care.
- You are able to do the ankle-brachial index test and sleep test (no severe physical or mental limitations).
- You have not been previously diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea and are not currently using a CPAP machine at night.

This study looks at whether sleep apnea (a condition where you stop breathing during sleep) might be linked to problems in the tiny blood vessels of the heart. By doing a sleep study and a heart scan, we hope to find ways to better diagnose and treat these heart issues.
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.
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 is improving how doctors classify obstructive sleep apnea (a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep). It focuses on sleepiness and heart-related risks to help guide treatment. If you are 40 or older and have untreated OSA, you may be able to join.
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.
This study tests whether treating sleep apnea can help women with menopause-related symptoms. It uses a home sleep test to check for sleep apnea and may offer treatment options to improve sleep and quality of life.
