Predictors of CPAP adherence following stroke and transient ischemic attack

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been shown to improve functional, motor and cognitive outcomes in post-stroke obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Our objective was to determine predictors of CPAP adherence in patients who had a stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).
