Background Selfadjusting CPAP therapy is mostly employed if constant CPAP does not
sufficiently suppress respiratory disturbances or is not accepted by the patient. The number …

We have previously demonstrated that upper airway obstruction in sleep apnea/hypopnea
syndrome (SAHS) can be accurately assessed in real-time by measuring respiratory …

When treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea–Hypopnea Syndrome (OSAHS) several alternatives
for standard (manual) continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) titration are feasible. A …
