A major scientific breakthrough has just reinforced the importance of sleep apnea treatment! A meta-analysis published on March 18th, 2025, in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine confirms, with an unprecedented level of certainty, that the use of CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) significantly reduces the risk of mortality from all causes, including cardiovascular-related deaths.
This study, which analyzed randomized controlled trials and observational studies adjusted for confounding factors, demonstrates that CPAP treatment does more than just improve sleep quality. It also plays a crucial role in protecting against severe complications, particularly cardiovascular diseases.
What this means for you:
- People with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) who use CPAP have a 37% lower risk of death from all causes.
- The treatment reduces the risk of severe cardiovascular complications by 55%.
- Regular follow-ups and good adherence to treatment are essential to maximize these benefits.
