Effect of Intermittent Hemodialysis on Sleep Apnea Syndrome in End Stage Renal Disease Patients (SASinHD)

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of decreasing fluid overload by hemodialysis on the severity of obstructive sleep apnea, in patients with end stage chronic kidney disease on intermittent hemodialysis. It aims further to investigate the relationship between overhydration, nocturnal rostral fluid shift and the severity of sleep apnea.
