Compliance After Re-Prescription for Positive Airway Pressure in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients Who Failed Positive Airway Pressure Therapy [PDF]

Journal of Rhinology, 2022
Background and Objectives Little is known about studies evaluating positive airway pressure (PAP) compliance after re-prescription. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate PAP compliance after re-prescription in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA ...

Optimal positive airway pressure requirement and polysomnography indices of obstructive sleep apnea severity in the Saudi population

Annals of Thoracic Medicine, 2023
CONTEXT: Positive airway pressure (PAP) is the first-line therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Overnight PAP titration for determining optimal PAP requirements is expensive and often inconvenient.

How to choose between high-flow nasal cannula, continuous positive airway pressure, and bilevel positive airway pressure in children with acute respiratory illness

Journal of Pediatric Critical Care, 2023
In pediatric patients with acute respiratory illnesses, the widespread availability of heated humidified high-flow nasal cannula (HHHFNC) devices, ease of use, and increased compliance have increased their use in conditions such as pneumonia, acute ...

Biphasic Positive Airway Pressure or Continuous Positive Airway Pressure: A Randomized Trial [PDF]

Pediatrics, 2016
BACKGROUND: There is currently no clear evidence that nasal-biphasic positive airway pressure (n-BiPAP) confers any advantage over nasal-continuous positive airway pressure (n-CPAP). Our hypothesis was that preterm infants born before 30 weeks' gestation and <2 weeks old when extubated onto n-BiPAP will have ...

Efficacy of auto-PAP titration in obstructive sleep apnea: Single-center experience

Indian Journal of Respiratory Care, 2020
Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep-associated breathing disorder, which left untreated can cause severe morbidities or even mortality. The recommended treatment strategy for moderate-to-severe OSA is continuous positive airway pressure (

Optimal pressure in obstructive sleep apnea: auto-titrating positive airway pressure versus predictive equations

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2021
Background The prescription of equation-based predicted pressure (Ppred) using mathematical equations has been proposed as a practical strategy for the determination of effective positive airway pressure (PAP).

Comparison of the effects of continuous positive airway pressure, oral appliance and exercise training in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome [PDF]

, 2013
OBJECTIVE: There are several treatments for obstructive sleep apnea syndrome, such as weight loss, use of an oral appliance and continuous positive airway pressure, that can be used to reduce the signs and symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome ...
