Background: Measurement of impedance using forced oscillation technique is a sensitive
means of detecting airway obstructions, including the obstructive sleep apnea syndrome …

Background: The measurement of impedance permits reliable detection of obstructive
apneas, hypopneas and upper airways resistance syndrome. Objective: To establish …

Study objective Automatic titration using the forced oscillation technique (FOT) has recently
been developed for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). So far, it is …

Constant continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the treatment of choice for the
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). To enable the pressure to be matched more …

Study objectives: Autoadjustable continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) devices are
increasingly used in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Since different …

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 …

Continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) represents the standard treatment for
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). With the aim of achieving optimal adaptation of …

Background: Although continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) is the treatment
of choice for obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS), there is a portion of patients in …

Abstract Purpose Auto-CPAP devices (APAP) are controlled, eg, by the respiratory flow and
pressure to adjust the treatment pressure to the variable obstruction in sleep apnea …

Although continuous airway pressure therapy (CPAP) represents the standard treatment for
obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) auto-adjusting CPAP (APAP) devices were …
