Positive airway pressure (PAP) is the treatment of choice for patients with moderate-to-
severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that …

Background and objective Whether the therapeutic nasal continuous positive airway
pressure (CPAP) derived from manual titration is the same as derived from automatic …

These practice parameters are an update of the previously published recommendations
regarding the use of autotitrating positive airway pressure (APAP) devices for titrating …

Study objectives: To compare the efficacy and patienttolerance, compliance, and preference
between auto-continuous positiveairway pressure (CPAP) and constant CPAP. Design …

Background Poor compliance and initial intolerance limit the effectiveness of continuous
positive airway pressure (CPAP) in obstructive sleep apnea. Short-term compliance has …

apnea (OSA) in patients who are clinically asymptomatic with continuous positive airway …

Objective To assess continuous positive airwaypressure (CPAP) compliance and factors
associated with CPAP complianceamong Chinese patients with obstructive sleep apnea …

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is currently the treatment of choice for the
majority of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). After a CPAP trial, the initial …
