Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Recent evidences suggest that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can contribute to cardiovascular disease even in the absence of hypertension. However, there are few data regarding the impact of OSA on the preHypertension and Masked Hypertension in apparently normotensive patients with OSA as well as the impact of treatment with continuous positive airway pressure.
