Severe CCS has a significant impact on short-long-term HRV in OSA patients. Further studies in OSA patients with less-severe CCS may shed more light onto the involved mechanistic processes. If confirmed in future larger studies, this physiologic metric has the potential to provide a robust surrogate marker of severe CCS in OSA patients.
