Official Title: Identification of Desaturation Episodes by Means of Continuous Measurement of Oxygen Saturation During Hemodialysis

Brief Summary: The clinical diagnosis of sleep apnea is difficult among ESRD patients since the characteristic clinical features of sleep apnea may be absent and since sleep-related symptoms, such as fatigue and sleepiness, may be attributed to kidney failure. However, the evaluation of patients with possible sleep apnea is the same among ESRD patients as in the general population.
