There is increasing epidemiological and experimental evidence that Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) is associated with cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, ischaemic heart disease, heart failure and stroke. Due to the high prevalence of SDB in the general population (5% to 10%) there is increasing demand for cost-effective and reliable diagnostic tools for the assessment of cardiovascular function during sleep in patients with SDB. The first part of this review focuses on our present knowledge about the association between SDB and cardiovascular disease. In the second part various methods for the assessment of cardiac function, blood pressure, sympathetic activity, as well as vascular and cerebrovascular function in patients with SDB are discussed. Current developments such as ECG analysis for SDB screening or arterial tonometry are introduced. Further improvements in the diagnostic tools for the investigation of cardiovascular function in patients with SDB may to advantage be coupled with epidemiological studies. This approach may demonstrate the predictive value or superiority of a specific diagnostic parameter in the diagnosis of SDB and its cardiovascular consequences.
