Summary

This study looked at 40 adults who had a blood clot in their lungs (pulmonary embolism). Researchers compared those who also had sleep-disordered breathing (like sleep apnea) with those who did not. The goal was to see if sleep problems affect short-term recovery and the chance of having another clot within one year.
