What people are saying
The discussions reflect a careful consideration of the study's findings, mentioning the trial's negative results on cardiovascular prevention despite improvements in symptoms, and addressing factors like treatment adherence and patient risk profiles, which indicates thoughtful engagement and recognition of its significance in sleep medicine and cardiovascular health.
Most discussions highlight the trial's findings that CPAP did not significantly prevent cardiovascular events, indicating general consensus or acknowledgment of these results.
Participants show moderate interest, with some expressing curiosity and highlighting the importance of improving therapies and identifying high-risk groups.
Many posts reference specific research details, such as trial results and compliance issues, showing an active engagement with the study data.
The discourse underscores the study's influence on clinical understanding and future research directions, emphasizing the need for better treatment strategies.
Abstract in brief
- This study investigated whether using CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) can prevent major cardiovascular events like heart attacks and strokes in adults with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and existing cardiovascular disease.
- After about 3.7 years of follow-up, the results showed no significant difference in preventing cardiovascular events between those who used CPAP and those who received usual care, although CPAP did help reduce snoring, daytime sleepiness, and improve quality of life.
- Overall, the findings suggest that CPAP therapy may not effectively prevent cardiovascular events in this patient group, despite improving some symptoms related to sleep apnea.]

@SukhNijjer @DrVikasKapil - any thoughts on this trial? https://t.co/poK9Fa4RZZ
@ProfHayward ah I saw the SAVE trial found ppl in CPAP group report fewer days off work for health-related reasons, think that's a worthwhile outcome (if people like to go to work!) lol fairly tight confidence interval too. 0.82 (0.80-0.85) @AlexChaitoff @JeremySussman https://t.co/zjDTLeMTeX

@H0B0_elite Snoring can be adaptive/protective to secure venous return while sleeping. Cardiac events, even death, from poor venous return during severe stress. CPAP doesn't provide cardiac protection contrary to common belief. Many allergy sx seem protective. https://t.co/NZ6xcIQVmn

@MohitHarshMD I’ll admit, I’m a little pessimistic about the benefits of CPAP. Clear benefit in daytime sleepiness. CV benefits seem less clear. But I do always address it. https://t.co/iLuEi70Wbs

@bobepidemiology This is another multi centre study, trying to assess the benefits on cardiovascular events. When you read through the study, compliance to the treatment impacted effectiveness. https://t.co/X3hgLGelM9
@taipan168 There's a special irony in the fact that the only large trial of CPAP masks showed they don't work... "CPAP + usual care vs. usual care alone did not prevent cardiovascular events in patients with moderate-severe obstructive sleep apnea & CV disease" https://t.co/VScbf7XnRQ

@MaxJordan_N @BenMazer Good questions, check out the SAVE trial NEJM https://t.co/NaQl7M1OON they tried to find the highest risk group to see mortality or composite CV event benefit. Unfortunately no difference.

@rafabravo Curioso resultado, en pacientes de muy alto riesgo CV. Quizá el tiempo medio de uso de CPAP (2,78 h/noche) puede influir. Pero en el análisis ajustado a cumplimiento tampoco parece afectar el resultado. Ya había datos que ponían en cuestión el beneficio CV https://t.co/KY0SxQTYPh
