Brief Summary

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

Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is common in cardiovascular patients. Patients after cardiac surgery will be screened for SDB with the ApnoeLink device at the beginning of cardiac Rehabilitation and then after 3 weeks and 3 months.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Objective(s) of the project

* Evaluate the prevalence of sleep apnea after cardiac surgery
* Compare results interindividually (group A vs. group B) and intraindividually (longitudinal assessment after 3 months)

Outcome(s)

* Prevalence of sleep apnoe at day 1 and 20 of rehabilitation and 3 months after cardiac surgery
* composite endpoint of events at 3 months (cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal cardiac arrest, revascularisation procedure, new atrial fibrillation and stroke)
* change in 6-minute walking test (6-MWT)
* impact of heart surgery on sleep apnoe
