aldosterone and Sleep Apnea Syndromes

aldosterone has been researched along with Sleep Apnea Syndromes in 13 studies

Sleep Apnea Syndromes: Disorders characterized by multiple cessations of respirations during sleep that induce partial arousals and interfere with the maintenance of sleep. Sleep apnea syndromes are divided into central (see SLEEP APNEA, CENTRAL), obstructive (see SLEEP APNEA, OBSTRUCTIVE), and mixed central-obstructive types.

Trial Outcomes

Epworth Sleepiness Score (ESS)

Epworth Sleepiness Score (ESS) is a scale to assess sleepiness during waking hours. The scale ranges from 0-24 with higher scores indicative of greater sleepiness. (NCT01196117)
Timeframe: Difference between Baseline(Day 0) and Average of Day 1,7,14.
