Abstract:Objective: In current standard practice the therapeutic pressure of CPAP is determined by manually titration under attended polysomnography (PSG).

Our goal is to compare the pressure levels obtained from home auto-CPAP with overnight PSG titration in children with OSA. Methods: We performed a prospective cohort study in 2-18 year-old children with OSA referred for CPAP titration under PSG. Children were instructed to use auto-CPAP … Show more
