What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that intensive CPAP support helps stroke patients use their therapy more consistently, potentially improving their recovery.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial focused on adherence, not a direct test of a new drug or cure. Results may not apply to all stroke patients, and CPAP can be uncomfortable for some.
