Multidimensional Evaluation of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Treatment for Sleep Apnea in Different Clusters of Couples

Abstract: Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most efficient treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Little is known about the impact of spousal relationship profiles on CPAP adherence. We aimed to identify clusters of couples of OSA patients, and their association with CPAP adherence 120 days after CPAP initiation. In a multicenter prospective study, OSA patients recently prescribed CPAP were enrolled with their spouses. Data about spousal relationships were collected at inclusion and at day 120.

“…This is in line with several other studies. Most European studies carried out in the last 10 years show that adherence to CPAP can vary from 50 to 90% [18][19][20][21]. A review of 82 studies showed that about a third of treated patients had poor adherence [22].…”

“…Prior to the delivery of the interventions, the authors built multiple clusters to give personalized interventions to the couples and patients. Mendelson et al explores deeper this clustering for the patients and their partners with advanced and automatic clustering methods [22]. Another study carried out by Ye et al also involved the partners [23].…”
