Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Although continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) has been established as standard therapy for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), CPAP adherence has been reported to be unsatisfactory. We consider that one of the factors affecting CPAP adherence would be differences in pressure change algorithms between CPAP manufacturing companies. However, none has done the study focused on this issue. Assumably, prescribing appropriate CPAP to the patient according to the patient's preference improves CPAP adherence. Thus, in the current study, we evaluate the associations between patient preference for the pressure change algorithm and treatment efficacy and patient profile to prove the importance of individuality in choosing CPAP devices utilizing a new CPAP device which equips three automatic pressure change algorithms. Then our goal would be personalized therapy with CPAP for patients with OSA.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

1. Patients preference for three automatic pressure change algorithms
2. Identified Cluster reflecting the patient profile. Clustering is performed using the patient characteristics, symptoms, and polysomnographic parameters.
The association between the above two factors will be evaluated.

Key secondary outcomes

1. CPAP adherence and treatment efficacy with each pressure change algorithm. Data is obtained from a CPAP memory card.
2. As for the patients who changed new CPAP from the one they used before they enrolled in this study, the association between patient preference for the pressure change algorithm and previously used CPAP device will be investigated.

Interventions/Control_1

The patient uses each mode among three automatic pressure change algorithms for every two weeks, which are soft, normal, and hard modes.
We adopted two orders as follows:
Pattern A. Soft -> Normal -> Hard
Pattern B. Hard -> Normal -> Soft
The order will be randomly assigned and blinded to the patient.

Interventions/Control_2

The patient uses each mode among three automatic pressure change algorithms for every two weeks, which are soft, normal, and hard modes.
We adopted two orders as follows:
Pattern A. Soft -> Normal -> Hard
Pattern B. Hard -> Normal -> Soft
The order will be randomly assigned and blinded to the patient.

Key inclusion criteria

1. Patients who are newly diagnosed with OSA and satisfy the eligibility for CPAP therapy.
2. Among patients who are already treated with CPAP, patients who present poor CPAP adherence or are not happy with the CPAP device.

Key exclusion criteria

1. Patients with cardiovascular diseases such as stroke, heart failure, ischemic heart disease, and arrhythmia including atrial fibrillation which may cause central sleep apnea with Cheyne-Stokes breathing.
2. Patients with severe COPD and neuromuscular diseases which might cause sleep-related hypoventilation.
3. Patients with uncontrollable other sleep-related disorders including insomnia, hypersomnia, parasomnia, and sleep-related movement disorder.
