Rationale Obstructive sleep apnea is common among patients with acute ischemic stroke
and is associated with reduced functional recovery and an increased risk for recurrent …

Sleep apnea affects more than half of patients with acute ischemic stroke and is associated
with poor stroke outcome. This pilot study assessed the feasibility of a randomized, sham …

Background New approaches are needed to treat patients with stroke. Among acute
ischemic stroke patients, our primary objectives were to describe the prevalence of sleep …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) occurs in about 70% of stroke and transient
ischemic attack (TIA) patients and is associated with poor function and recurrent vascular …

Few randomized controlled trials have evaluated the effectiveness of continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) in reducing recurrent vascular events and mortality in poststroke …

Objective/background The benefit of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) treatment
following ischemic stroke in patients with obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) is …

Study Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is an independent risk factor for stroke.
The objective of this study was to assess the effect of continuous positive airway pressure …

Background Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common among patients with acute ischemic
