NCT ID NCT00743561
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a portable sleep monitor used during a short hospital stay can accurately diagnose sleep apnea in people with multiple system atrophy (MSA), compared to the standard overnight lab test. Thirty adults with probable MSA took part. The goal was to see if the simpler test could replace the more complex one, making diagnosis easier for patients.
