Blood pressure dipping during REM and non-REM sleep in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea

Abstract A limited number of papers have addressed the association between non-dipping-blood pressure (BP) obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and no study has assessed BP-dipping during rapid eye movement (REM) and non-REM sleep in OSA patients. This study sought to noninvasively assess BP-dipping durin...
