AI Model Suggests CPAP Can Massively Swing Heart Risk in Sleep Apnea
Mount Sinai researchers developed a machine‑learning model that predicts how continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy will affect cardiovascular risk in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. Using data from the SAVE trial and more than 100 baseline variables, the algorithm identified subgroups where CPAP reduced heart‑related events by up to 100‑fold, and others where it increased risk by a similar magnitude. The study, published in Communications Medicine, marks the first effort to estimate individualized treatment‑effect scores for CPAP, signaling a shift toward precision medicine in sleep‑disorder care. Researchers caution that extensive validation is needed before the tool can guide routine clinical decisions.
