“…In our study, only fatigue was an independent predictor for good CPAP compliance. A previous study from Belgium showed that fatigue was also a predictor for CPAP purchase with a coefficient of 0.538 ( p=0.008) [18]. Additionally, fatigue is a common symptom of OSA, resulting in the limitation of physical activity and/or poor quality of life [19].…”

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is a common disease that can be treated with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). CPAP tolerance may be associated with its compliance. Even though there are several predictors for good CPAP compliance, there are limited data available on the correlation between CPAP compliance and OSA symptoms. This study aimed to evaluate this correlation. We conducted a cross-sectional study and enrolled adult patients diagnosed with OSA through polysomnography who had experience using a CPAP machine. A self-report questionnaire was used to evaluate CPAP compliance and study variables. Predictors of CPAP compliance were analysed using stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis. There were 68 patients with OSA who completed the questionnaire during the study period. Of those, 14 (20.59%) exhibited good CPAP compliance. Only fatigue as a symptom was an independent factor associated with good CPAP compliance, with an adjusted odds ratio of 5.380 (95% CI 1.274–22.719). In conclusion, fatigue was the only symptom associated with good CPAP compliance in patients with OSA.

“…A widely recognized definition of good compliance to PAP therapy is PAP device usage for an average of 4 hours per night for ≥70% of the monitoring days [ 7 ]. Cost-related issues are significant barriers to PAP compliance that are directly affected by the national insurance coverage system applied to PAP therapy [ 8 - 10 ]. In South Korea (hereafter, Korea), before July 2018, patients with OSA requiring PAP therapy had to purchase or rent the PAP device at their own expense.…”

Objectives Compliance with positive airway pressure (PAP) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) directly affects its treatment efficacy. Since July 2018, polysomnography and PAP therapy have been covered by the national health insurance (NHI), which has reduced the price barrier and promoted PAP therapy in Korea. This study aimed to compare changes in PAP compliance before and after NHI implementation.MethodsThis study is a retrospective analysis in a tertiary hospital setting in Korea. From 2011 to 2019, patients with OSA (apnea-hypopnea index

Impact of purchasing the CPAP device on acceptance and long-term adherence: a Belgian model

Abstract: CPAP reimbursement influences the purchase of CPAP but once the device becomes available there is no difference with reimbursed patients in long-term adherence.
