RehaSleep Register - Prevalence of Sleep Apnea in Cardiac Rehabilitation (RehaSleep)

September 22, 2015 updated by: RWTH Aachen University

Prevalence of sleep-related breath disturbance in patients in cardiac rehabilitation.

The aim of the register is to enable a better diagnosis and early treatment initiation in the context of secondary prevention. In addition to the prevalence, the further course of the patients shall be documented after hospital discharge to verify any gaps (sleep laboratory, therapy introduction) and emphasize the importance of rehabilitation and to examine the possibility of initiating therapy in rehabilitation.
