Autotitrating positive airway pressure therapy in OSA.
I read with interest the article by O’Gorman et al 1 in a recent issue of CHEST (July 2013) on autotitrating positive airway pressure (APAP) therapy in postoperative patients. It is not surprising that APAP did not show any benefi t for patients postoperatively at high risk for sleep apnea. For positive airway pressure therapy to be of benefit, it probably should have been used for at least 1 t...
متن کاملSleep structure correlates of continuous positive airway pressure variations during application of an autotitrating continuous positive airway pressure machine in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To evaluate the relationship between sleep structure and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) delivered by an automatic CPAP (auto-CPAP) machine in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). DESIGN Nocturnal polysomnography was performed during CPAP administration by an auto-CPAP machine (Autoset Clinical 1; ResMed; Sydney, Australia). SETTING Sleep-disord...
متن کاملResidual sleep-disordered breathing during autotitrating continuous positive airway pressure therapy.
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is often treated with autotitrating continuous positive airway pressure (autoCPAP) devices. Clinical and bench tests of these devices have suggested performance limitations. These studies do not indicate whether this is a failure to detect or a failure to respond to airway obstruction. In this randomised, crossover trial, 34 patients with moderate-to-severe OSA un...
متن کاملWhen pressure is positive: a literature review of the prehospital use of continuous positive airway pressure.
BACKGROUND Heart failure poses a significant burden of disease, resulting in 2,658 Australian deaths in 2008, and listed as an associated cause of death in a further 14,466 cases. Common in the hospital setting, continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy is a non-invasive ventilation technique used to prevent airway collapse and manage acute pulmonary edema (APO). In the hospital settin...
متن کاملInitial Adherence to Autotitrating Positive Airway Pressure Therapy: Influence of Upper Airway Narrowing
OBJECTIVES There 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 of upper airway narrowing. METHODS The patients were divided into two groups according to the continuation of therapy within the first three ...
