Abstract

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Nocturnal blood pressure (BP) profile shows characteristic abnormalities in OSA, namely acute postapnea BP surges and nondipping BP. These abnormal BP profiles provide prognostic clues indicating increased cardiovascular disease risk. We developed a deep neural network model to perform computerized analysis of polysomnography data and predict nocturnal BP profile.
