European Respiratory Society (ERS)Abstract
International audienceComplaints of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) are absent in many individuals with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). The influence of EDS prior to treatment on continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) adherence has not been clearly determined [1, 2]. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate the adherence and perceived benefit during long-term CPAP therapy in a "real life" population of non-sleepy OSA patients.</p
