BACKGROUND Nasal continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) in the treatment of choice for adult obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The diagnosis is established with polysomnography, but this study is expensive and must be repeated in those patients that require CPAP, to titrate the pressure of the therapy.

No single factor has been consistently identified as predictive of continued CPAP use. METHODS Adherence to and associations with objective CPAP use were examined in 639 of 3900 patients in whom CPAP treatment was started between 1994 and 2005. Kaplan-Meier survival...

We consider the study to be of particular importance because it shows that we now have to...
