This study is looking at how obstructive sleep apnea—a condition where your breathing stops and starts during sleep—affects people who have chronic kidney disease. Researchers want to understand how common sleep apnea is among kidney disease patients and whether it makes kidney disease worse over time. By studying a large group of patients, they hope to find better ways to identify and treat sleep apnea early in people with kidney problems.
Sleep apnea is very common in people with kidney disease, but doctors don't fully understand how it impacts kidney health or how to best catch it early. This study exists to fill that gap and help doctors better support kidney disease patients who also have sleep apnea.

You would be part of a long-term study comparing people with kidney disease who have sleep apnea to those who don't. The study will involve sleep monitoring tests (likely including a home sleep test or clinic visit), kidney function measurements, and regular follow-up visits to track how your kidneys are doing over time. Researchers will collect information about your health history, lifestyle, and any symptoms to better understand the connection between sleep apnea and kidney disease.
