NCT ID NCT04630535

First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether having obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) might protect the body from damage during surgery to repair a large blood vessel (aortic aneurysm). The idea is that the short, repeated drops in oxygen from sleep apnea might train the body to handle the stress of surgery better. Researchers will compare 100 patients with and without sleep apnea who are having this surgery to see if those with OSA have fewer complications and less organ damage.
