Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a disorder that severely disrupts sleep and may lead to
severe long-and short-term health consequences. Continuous positive airway pressure …

Adherence to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for obstructive sleep
apnoea (OSA) is often poor. Biomedical indices explain little of the variance in CPAP use …

Purpose Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a common disorder, for which continuous
positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is a standard treatment. Despite its well …

Abstract Adherence to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure for obstructive sleep apnoea
(OSA) can be improved by behavioural interventions which modify patients' beliefs and …

Background Compliance with CPAP treatment for OSAS is not reliably predicted by the
severity of symptoms or physiological variables. We examined a range of factors which …

Background: The reasons that a patient has to start treatment, their “Cues to Action,” are
important for determining subsequent health behaviors. Cues to action are an explicit …

Objectives To assess the utility of a tailored intervention program to improve continuous
positive airway pressure (CPAP) use and self-efficacy in individuals with obstructive sleep …

The present study objective was to establish whether pretreatment social cognitive variables
may contribute to the explanation of variance in adherence to continuous positive airway …

STUDY OBJECTIVES: We examined whether psychological variables enable us to predict
adherence to CPAP in order to construct a predictive model to identify patients at risk of …

Background and purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) disorder has a deleterious impact
on health. Using the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device effectively lessens …
