Recent developments in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea
T Verse, W Pirsig, BA Stuck, K Hörmann… - American Journal of …, 2003 - Springer
Modern sleep medicine has been in existence for only 20 years and therefore has to be
regarded as a comparatively recent field of specialization. For this reason it is not surprising …

Transmission of oral pressure compromises oronasal CPAP efficacy in the treatment of OSA
F Madeiro, RGS Andrade, VS Piccin… - Chest, 2019 - Elsevier
Background An oronasal mask is frequently used to treat OSA. In contrast to nasal CPAP,
the effectiveness of oronasal CPAP varies by unknown mechanisms. We hypothesized that …
