The objective was to assess the effect of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on symptoms anxiety and depression in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We hypothesized a decrease at follow-up, but that improvement relied CPAP adherence.
Objective: To assess the prevalence of parasomnias in relation to presence and severity obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). We hypothesized higher parasomnia with OSA severity. Methods: The sample comprised 4,372 patients referred a Norwegian university hospital suspicion (mean age 49.1 years, 69.8% males). was diagnosed categorized by standard respiratory polygraphy (type 3 portable monitor). completed comprehensive questionnaire prior study, including questions about different during last three...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and insomnia are the two most common disorders. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is considered first-line treatment for OSA. In present study, we assess effect of CPAP on symptoms prevalence in patients with We hypothesized a decrease from initiation to follow-up, that this would depend adherence.The sample included 442 diagnosed OSA [mean age 54.9 years (SD = 12.1), 74.4% males] who started at university hospital. was according standard respiratory...
