Obstructive sleep apnea: one more target in cardiac rehabilitation

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder, often unrecognized and undiagnosed, in patients with established cardiovascular diseases. Considerable evidence is now available in support of a significant association between OSA and increased risk for cardiovasc...

OSA might be a modifiable risk factor and screening for OSA should be implemented in cardiac rehabilitation settings.https://www.monaldi-archives.org/index.php/macd/article/view/57cardiac rehabilitationobstructive sleep apneacardiovascular risk
