Obstructive Sleep Apnoea in Sarcoidosis

Sarcoidosis patients and control subjects will undergo one night of home sleep apnea testing using ApnoeaLinkTM Plus device (ResMed Corporation, Poway, Calif). The device records the patient's nasal respiratory pressure signal as a surrogate of nasal flow, respiratory movements by a thoracic impedance belt, and finger pulse oximetry. The results of the sleep study will be scored automatically with dedicated software (ResMed Corporation, Poway, Calif), and manually reviewed to ensure data accuracy.
