This analysis determined ∼5-year incident hypertension rates using the 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association blood pressure (BP) guidelines in individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) with hypopneas defined by a ≥ 3% oxygen desaturation or arousal but not by a hypopnea criterion of ≥ 4% oxygen desaturation (4% only).
