Long-term exercise parameter outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea patients with and without positive airway pressure therapy

Long-term exercise parameter outcomes in obstructive sleep apnea patients with and without positive airway pressure therapy

BACKGROUND: Short-term studies have shown that positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy increases exercise capacity in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). In this study, we investigated the effect of PAP therapy on exercise parameters in OSAS patients who were followed for 2 years. MATERIALS AND...
