The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and/or obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) on the endothelial function, before cardiovascular surgery, compared to non COPD non OSAS patients undergoing also a cardiovascular surgery, by an observational physiological study. An interim analysis will be performed when 100 patients will be included.
