    Sleep for Stroke Management and Recovery Trial

    Active recruiting

    The primary goals of this study are to determine whether treatment of obstructive sleep apnea with positive airway pressure starting shortly after accute ischemic stroke or high risk TIA (1) reduces recurrent stroke, acute coronary syndrome, and all-cause mortality 6 months after the event and (2) improves stroke outcomes at 3 months in patients who experienced ischemic stroke.

    Sleep for Stroke Management and Recovery Trial

    Active recruiting

    The primary goals of this study are to determine whether (1) treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with positive airway pressure after acute ischemic stroke or high risk TIA reduces recurrent stroke, acute coronary syndrome (ACS), and all-cause mortality 6 months after the event, and (2) treatment of OSA shortly after acute ischemic stroke improves stroke outcomes at 3 months.
