Obstructive sleep apnea and objective sleep quality in non-dialyzed patients with chronic kidney disease: an ESADA study

Conclusions: In subjects with eGFR>60 and in patients with stage 3 CKD, objective sleep duration and quality did not differ, and changed in parallel with AHI. Previously reported poor sleep quality and duration in CKD may partly be due to a high prevalence of OSA.
