Introduction: This guideline establishes clinical practice recommendations for positive airway pressure (PAP) treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults and is intended for use in conjunction with other American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM) guidelines in the evaluation and treatment of sleep-disordered breathing in adults.
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep-related breathing disorder that involves a decrease or complete halt in airflow despite an ongoing effort to breathe. It occurs when the muscles relax during sleep, causing soft tissue in the back of the throat to collapse and block the upper airway.
24 Σεπ 2013 · The American College of Physicians (ACP) developed this guideline to present the evidence and provide clinical recommendations on the management of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adults.
The Board of Directors of the AASM assembled the Adult Obstructive Sleep Apnea Task Force in January 2007 to review available literature and produce a clinical guideline for the evaluation, management and long-term care of adult pa-tients with OSA. This guideline is meant to assist primary care.
Positional therapy, accomplished by sewing tennis balls into the back of a night shirt, sleeping laterally against a full body pillow, or wearing an anti-supine belt, is available for supine-predominant OSA.
