Study Summary

The goal of this study is to develop a novel study design to safely and ethically conduct a long-term randomized controlled trial among patients at high risk for both sleep apnea and cardiovascular events that will examine whether effective positive airway pressure(PAP) therapy reduces cardiovascular risk. Patients with transient ischemic attack(TIA) or stroke have a high prevalence of sleep apnea(60-80%), and they are at high risk of cardiovascular events(myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, recurrent stroke, and cardiovascular death)in the first year post event, despite current prevent strategies. Therefore, the treatment of sleep apnea may represent a novel therapeutic target to reduce cardiovascular outcomes in this high risk population.

Primary Outcome

The homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). HOMA IR change is one of the measures used to assess cardiovascular risk. HOMA-IR Index (measured by calculating - fasting insulin (microU/L) x fasting glucose (nmol/L)/22.5.). The change from baseline up until the final measurement (up to 12 months) was assessed.
