Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy provides a pneumatic splinting of the upper airways in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In spite of several CPAP therapy benefits, adherence remains a major problem than physician should monitor carrefully verify. Common interface-related side effects may contribute to therapy failure. The use of CPAP telemonitoring with automated feedback messaging is an evaluable method to improve patient's adherence.

Abstract

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy provides a pneumatic splinting of the upper airways in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). In spite of several CPAP therapy benefits, adherence remains a major problem than physician should monitor carrefully verify. Common interface-related side effects may contribute to therapy failure. The use of CPAP telemonitoring with automated feedback messaging is an evaluable method to improve patient's adherence.
