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

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

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 …

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 …

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

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 …

Purpose Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the therapy of choice for the
treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Not all patients can use CPAP therapy with …

Abstract Study Objectives: To determine if auto-adjusting positive airway pressure (APAP)
would be better tolerated on the basis of delivering a lower mean pressure in patients with …

Background: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) remains the treatment of choice
for obstructive sleep apnea–hypopnea (OSAH). Auto-titrating CPAP (APAP) devices …

Purpose Non-invasive measurements of arterial stiffness including the augmentation index
(AIx) and central blood pressure (BP) have been used to assess the cardiovascular health of …
