Researchers investigate hidden sleep disorder risk in cancer survivors

NCT ID NCT03361020

Summary

This study aims to understand how common obstructive sleep apnea is in adult survivors of Hodgkin lymphoma who were treated with chest radiation. Researchers will compare 220 survivors to a group of healthy people matched for age, gender, race, and weight. The study involves sleep studies, brain scans, and strength tests to see if survivors have a higher risk of sleep apnea and related heart and brain health problems.
