Study Objectives: To evaluate continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment in patients with moderate to severe sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) after an ischemic stroke. Methods: We identified patients included in the Acute Stroke Registry and Analysis of Lausanne (ASTRAL) who underwent polysomnography after an ischemic stroke. We compared patients without significant SDB (apnea-hypopnea index [AHI] < 15 events/h: SDB-), with AHI >= 15 events/h who refused CPAP or with poor CPAP adherence (SDB+ CPAP-), and patients with SDB effectively treated by CPAP (SDB+ CPAP+). Results: We analyzed data from 101 patients (age 68.5 +/- 11.1 years, 84.1%men). In multivariate analysis the SDB+ CPAP+ group was associated with a significant reduction of stroke recurrence and mortality (odds ratio 0.13, 95%confidence interval 0.00-0.86, P = .031), whereas atrial fibrillation was independently associated with a higher risk (odds ratio 4.32, 95% confidence interval 1.51-12.33, P= .006). Event-free survival analysis (stroke recurrence and death) after 2-year follow-up showed that those in the SDB+ CPAP+ group had significantly higher cardiovascular survival, and Cox proportion hazard model identified CPAP treatment as significantly associated with survival time (P = .025). The AHI and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale subacute score were independently associated with CPAP adherence among patients with SDB. Conclusions: This observational study shows that CPAP treatment in stroke patients with moderate to severe SDB is associated with lower rates of stroke recurrence and death.
