Study objectives To evaluate the effects of humidification on nasal symptoms and
compliance in sleep apnea patients using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) …

Cold passover and heated humidifiers are employed for the prevention of side-effects
associated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. However, to date, it …

Heated humidification of nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) reduces upper
airway symptoms and improves initial use in obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS) …

Study objective To determine whether the addition of heated humidification at treatment
initiation with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) would lead to better CPAP …

Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is an effective treatment for obstructive
sleep apnea (OSA). It is usually prescribed for nightly use; however, recent studies show that …
