We have designed and implemented a computer-controlled system that uses an adaptive control algorithm (generalized minimum variance) to buffer the breath-by-breath variations of the end-tidal CO2 fraction (FETCO2) that occur spontaneously or are exag

This study is a 12-week randomized, cross-over, single-blind comparison of the tolerance, compliance, and symptomatic improvement obtained with standard nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) vs. an auto-titrating, self-adjusting device (AP

Options for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea are varied and ever-expanding. This article reviews the currently available treatment modalities in an evidence-based format. Focus is placed on the efficacy and limitations of each particular ther

Treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has developed over the last 25 years from tracheostomy to a variety of options, including weight loss, nasal continuous positive airway pressure (N-CPAP), pharyngeal surgery, and medications. None of these o

From this review it is obvious that no one pharmacologic agent is universally useful in the treatment of OSA. However, as mentioned in the introductory remarks above, the expectation of beneficial results in a heterogenous population of patients with

Recent objective studies demonstrate relatively low hours of nightly use during nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Patients frequently complain of dyspnea or discomfort during CPAP use, especia

Research efforts to date have identified that both anatomic and physiologic variables may contribute to the pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnea. Whether specific factors within either of these two categories will be shown to predominate remain

Research efforts to date have determined that both anatomic and physiologic variables may contribute to the pathophysiology of OSA. Whether specific factors within either of these two categories will be shown to predominate remains to be seen. Surely

Evidence exists that strongly suggests that an imbalance in both the magnitude and timing of electrical activity between the upper airway and chest wall inspiratory muscles can exist during sleep. Too little or delayed activity of upper airway inspir

The purposes of this study were 1) to characterize the immediate inspiratory muscle and ventilation responses to inspiratory resistive loading during sleep in humans and 2) to determine whether upper airway caliber was compromised in the presence of
