COLLAPSE, PREECLAMPSIA, ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION
Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality [OSA is characterized by repetitive upper airway collapse during sleep leading to apneas/hypopneas, causing oxygen desaturation, arousals, sympathetic activation, and endothelial dysfunction [Although, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a standard treatment for OSA in general population [CPAP treatment, with the elimination of airflow limitation in preeclamptic women, resulted in significant reduction of blood pressure (BP) [
