Abstract

The article provides the results of the clinical follow-up of 20 patients with arterial hypertension and moderate/severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The patients received CPAP treatment for 1.5 months. We studied the effects of CPAP therapy on circadian blood pressure profile and renal function. We found that CPAP treatment significantly reduced the severity of sleep apnea. Additionally, CPAP therapy has been shown to significantly lower blood pressure during the day, and decrease urinary albumin excretion.
