Objective To assess the accuracy of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) in verifying
the level of collapse in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients. Methods A prospective …

Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is becoming increasingly prescribed for nonobstructive sleep
apnea–related conditions 1–3 including neuromuscular disease, 4 thoracic cage disorders …

Sleep apnoea is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The treatment goal is to
reduce the neurocognitive and cardiovascular sequelae. CPAP therapy in sleep apnoea is …

Background and objective: Several algorithms that predict the optimal CPAP have been
developed for Caucasian patients with OSA syndrome, but these algorithms do not allow for …

BACKGROUND: The duration of automatic computer-controlled continuous positive airway
pressure device (autoCPAP) initiation at home varies largely between sleep centers. Our …

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

The prevalence of obesity and overweight is growing in adults and children worldwide. With
the failure of diets and lifestyle factors, more people are looking to bariatric surgery to …

BACKGROUND: The best method for titration of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
therapy in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome has not yet been established. The 90th …

During sleep, the development of a plateau on the inspiratory airflow/time contour provides a
non-invasive indicator of airway collapsibility. Humans recognize this abnormal contour …
