Initial Adherence to Autotitrating Positive Airway Pressure Therapy: Influence of Upper Airway Narrowing [PDF]
Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2009 ObjectivesThere is still debate concerning the reason for the high initial failure rate of positive airway pressure (PAP) treatment. The objective of this study is to investigate the factors of the initial adherence to PAP, with an emphasis on the role ...

An innovative nasal continuous positive airway pressure assembly
Indian Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2013 Continuous positive airway pressure is required by patients of obstructive sleep apnea to prevent any obstruction of airways. This requires CPAP machines which are costly, have electrical dependence and are not readily available. The nasal CPAP assembly devised by us overcomes most of these limitations and can be made from easily available materials.
