Prevalence of Sleep Apnea and Echocardiographic Correlates in a Community-Based Cohort of Cardio-Oncology Patients
Authors' conclusion
These observations suggest OSA be considered in risk algorithms for CTRCD.
Study context
- Population
- Community-based cardio-oncology patients
- Participants
- 218 patients
- Exposure
- Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) status
- Outcome
- Prevalence of OSA and association with pretreatment LVEF and GLS
Methodological detailscommunity-based cohort
- Community-based cohort
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
OSA prevalence
Prevalence of OSA (84/218)
38.5%
Observational data: associations, not effects.
