We investigated the relationship between ambulatory blood pressure (BP) and oxygen desaturation index (ODI), while accounting for pulse rate and age. ODI was assessed by overnight finger pulse oximetry in 2342 participants on the day of ambulatory BP monitoring, and calculated as the number of desaturation episodes per sleeping hour. Both BP and pulse rate increased significantly (P ≤ .006) from normal (< 5 events/h) to mildly (5-14), moderately (15-30), and severely (≥ 30 events/h) elevated ODI ...[more]
