Simulated Obstructive Sleep Apnea Increases P-Wave Duration and P-Wave Dispersion.

Simulated Obstructive Sleep Apnea Increases P-Wave Duration and P-Wave Dispersion.

BACKGROUND:A high P-wave duration and dispersion (Pd) have been reported to be a prognostic factor for the occurrence of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF), a condition linked to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We tested the hypothesis of whether a short-term increase of P-wave duration and Pd can...
