Effects of Treating Sleep Apnea-Induced Hypoxemia With Low-Flow Oxygen in Acute Stroke Patients: A Pilot Study

We want to determine if treating acute ischemic stroke patients who have evidence of
hypoxemia due to sleep apnea with low flow O2 during sleep might help improve clinical and
functional outcomes.

Acute stroke patients will be tested for nocturnal hypoxemia using overnight oximetry. Those
with evidence of hypoxemia will be randomized into two groups. One group will receive
standard medical care. The other group will receive standard medical care as well as
receiving low flow oxygen during sleep.
