Title: The prediction of treatment failure of the continuous positive airways pressure | ||
Author: D. Slouka, M. Honnerova, V. Hrabe, A. Matas | ||
Abstract: Objective: The aim of study was to find predictive factors for treatment failure of the continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). Methods: Totally, 983 patients with moderate to severe SAS (AHI ≥ 15, apnea/hypopnea index) were treated with CPAP during 2005–2010 in a tertiary hospital. 506 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. In all patients, sleep monitoring was performed and AHI, the presence of hyposaturation T90 (oxygen saturation less than 90 %) and ODI (oxygen distress index) were recorded and a comparison was made between CPAP-effective and CPAP-failure treatment groups. |
