Sleep apnea may be hidden danger in leg artery disease patients
NCT ID NCT07283289
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at how often sleep apnea occurs in people with peripheral artery disease (blocked leg arteries). Researchers will monitor 295 adults with leg artery disease using a sleep test. The goal is to better understand the connection between these two conditions, which may help improve future care.
