Long term effects of continuous positive airway pressure treatment of obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome in multiple sclerosis patients.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea (OSAH) is common in MS patients and is associated with fatigue. We recently published a randomized, controlled trial (RCT) of active vs sham continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in MS patients with fatigue, poor sleep quality, and (OSAH) (Mult Scl J 2022;28:82-92). Our aim was to evaluate the long-term effects of CPAP treatment on fatigue (Fatigue Severity Scale, FSS, primary outcome) and other clinical outcomes in MS patients with OSAH.
