Long-term adherence to ambulatory initiated continuous positive airway pressure in non-syndromic OSA children.
CONCLUSION: In our population, mean CPAP adherence defined in hours per night was high and did not decrease during the 24-month follow-up. These findings support the feasibility of ambulatory CPAP initiation in non-syndromic OSA. The high CPAP adherence is expected to be associated with improvements in neurocognition, and in metabolic and cardiovascular parameters.
