About the research project

The Register of Sleep Medicine at Haukeland University Hospital primarily comprises patients with sleep apnea, but also a minor patient group with severe hypersomnia is included. Furthermore, the register contains follow-up data from patients who have received CPAP- or other treatments at the clinic. Several articles have been published and many PhD candidates are working with data from the register.
