Titration procedures for nasal CPAP: Automatic CPAP
Background: The best method for titration of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome has not yet been established. The 90th or 95th percentiles of the pressure titrated over time by automatic CPAP (A-CPAP) have been recommended as reference for prescribing therapeutic fixed CPAP (F-CPAP). We compared A-CPAP to F-CPAP, which was determined by ...
متن کاملNasal CPAP in OSA
N asal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the primary treatment for symptomatic patients with obstructive sleep apnoeahypopnoea (OSAH). The best method for determining the optimal CPAP pressure is an ongoing subject of scrutiny. Both the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the American Thoracic Society recommend supervised CPAP titration during overnight polysomnography, based on ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Nasal CPAP
It has been shown that nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nasal CPAP) significantly reduces nocturnal reflux both in patients with sleep apnea and in patients without sleep apnea but consistent abnormal nocturnal reflux. The mechanism by which CPAP is thought to reduce reflux includes the elevation of the resting lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure. In this study, we tested the ef...

any other focus, which could be the source fur the infection of the right clavicle, its involvement may be explained by the attempted right subclavian catheterization. Fever and chills were conspicuously absent, and the sole clinical finding was pain and tenderness in the involved area accompanied by the increased sedimentation rate, which is typical fur osteomyelitis caused by P aeruginosa.’#{...
متن کاملA home monitoring system for nasal CPAP.
A compact portable sensing system (PSS) was developed for home monitoring of patients with obstructive sleep apnea treated with nasal continuous positive-airway pressure (CPAP). The system consisted of a solid-state pressure sensor connected with plastic tubing to the side port of the nasal CPAP mask, a power supply, and a strip chart recorder. The device was validated against standard polysomn...
