Early Identification of Patients With Coexisting Atrial Fibrillation and Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The purpose of this research study is to learn about arrhythmia detection in obstructive
sleep apnea (OSA). For several years patients with OSA have an increased likelihood of having
irregular heartbeats. This study will determine how often patients with OSA have irregular
heartbeats. This study will also define which OSA patients are most likely to have irregular
heartbeats.
The participant is being asked to be in the study because the participant has been diagnosed
with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
