Chairs:  
Aims: Epidemiological and clinical studies show that patients with sleep apnoea have an increased risk of stroke, but the sleep apnoea is usually recognised after the stroke rather than before it. The aim of this session is to provide an update on this important topic by discussions led by a world-expert in the field.
