Autonomic Cardiovascular Assessment in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Using Beat-to-Beat Blood Pressure: A Pilot Study
A small sample of patients with untreated moderate-to-severe OSA had autonomic abnormalities in tests using beat-to-beat blood pressure. Sympathetic overdrive in long-term daytime was manifested as orthostatic hypertension. Emerging technologies contributed to diagnosing the OSA-related autonomic dysfunction beyond the polysomnographic approach.
