Careful ini<al educa<onal and CPAP and mask training session. Effort to reach pa2ent s awareness of the need of treatment Adequate mask choice SUPPORT DURING CPAP TITRATION (2tra2on is an art) Some<mes a slow increase of pressure is needed depending of the pa<ents Assistance and guidance through the night (awake periods, percep<on of pressure, mask leaks or asynchronies) A number of <mes not all the events can be corrected Pleasant night is probably the most important point Discussion of the procedure and problems in the morning POST- CAP TITRATION FOLLOW- UP The intervals of the visits depend of the side effects, compliance, characteris<cs of the pa<ents and associated diseases. Early detec2on and treatment of side effects is one of the most important points as control during the first weeks Con<nuous educa<onal and psychological support First visit (1-2 weeks): individual face- to- face, group support or teleconsulta<on Second visit (4-6 weeks): individual face- to- face, group support or teleconsulta<on Next visits depend on the pa<ent s characteris<cs, comorbidi<es, side effects, residual symptoms/ events detected and compliance All the procedure can be performed by face to face or groups visits as by videoconferences

31 CONCLUSIONS Application of nasal CPAP is very effective in normalizing breathing and sleep architecture. A-CPAP technology is at present not well defined and the commercially available devices exhibit considerable differences. Split night and automatic CPAP represent an useful option in a high suspicion patients. A-CPAP probably is more costefectiveness There are no data clearly showing that automatic CPAP is better than fixed-cpap for the home treatment of the general OSA population.

32 IN THE END, the fundamental issue is not whether ambulatory studies are better or worse than PSG, but rather under what conditions use of home studies are appropriate. Large randomized trials of different diagnostic strategies in different groups of patients with collection of concomitant economic information are required to address this important issue. It is unlikely that one diagnostic strategy will be superior in all the different clinical scenarios that are encountered. SLEEP, Vol. 34, No. 6, 2011
