Predictors of CPAP Non-Compliance One Year Post-Discharge in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome Patients

Comprehensive Positive Airway Pressure Titration Parameters as Predictors of Therapeutic Adherence in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Among the physiological parameters recorded during PAP titration, the lowest SpO2 was the most robust predictor of short-term adherence, independent of both baseline disease severity and baseline hypoxemia.

Sense of Coherence and Its Association With Adherence to Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Therapy in Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnoea

It is suggested that low SOC is a risk factor for non-adherence to treatment and is a key clinical predictor for developing motivational strategies to improve treatment persistence in patients with OSA.

Can Sleep Hypoxic Measures Predict Long-Term Adherence to Positive Airway Pressure Treatments?

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by recurrent upper airway collapse. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard treatment but is burdened by low adherence rates. Nighttime hypoxia may alter sleep structure and OSA symptoms, potentially affe...

Long-term CPAP adherence in elderly patients after ambulatory initiation

Quality of life in patients with obstructive sleep apnea by CPAP therapy status

Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a frequently underdiagnosed condition characterized by symptoms such as excessive daytime sleepiness, fatigue, and reduced quality of life (QoL), while continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the gold standard treatment. This study aimed to examine the impact of CPAP...

CPAP adherence and depressive symptoms in post-stroke/TIA patients with OSA.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is highly prevalent among patients with stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) and is associated with poor outcomes including post-stroke depression. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard treatment for OSA, however, adherence is low. The relationship between CPAP a...
