    Abstract Continuous positive airway pressure is the gold standard treatment for obstructive sleep apnea. Different interfaces with distinct characteristics, advantages, and disadvantages are available, which may influence long-term adherence. Oronasal masks have been increasingly used. However, recent evidence suggest that nasal masks are more effective when continuous positive airway pressure is used to treat obstructive sleep apnea. The main objective of this review is to describe the basis for the selection of the interface for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea with continuous positive airway pressure.

    Abstract Insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are common sleep disorders and frequently coexist (COMISA). Arousals from sleep may be a common link explaining the frequent comorbidity of both disorders. Respiratory arousal threshold (AT) is a physiologic measurement of the level of respiratory effort to trigger an arousal from sleep. The impact of COMISA on AT is not known. We hypothesized that a low AT is more common among COMISA than among patients with OSA without insomnia. Participants referred for OSA diagnosis underwent a type 3 sleep study and answered the insomnia severity index (ISI) questionnaire and the Epworth sleepiness scale. Participants with an ISI score ≥ 15 were defined as having insomnia. Sleep apnea was defined as an apnea hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 15 events/h. Low AT was determined using a previously validated score based on 3 polysomnography variables (AHI, nadir SpO

    Abstract Study objectives: Although obstructive sleep apnea results from the combination of different pathophysiologic mechanisms, the degree of anatomical compromise remains the main responsible factor. The passive pharyngeal critical closing pressure (Pcrit) is a technique used to assess the collapsibility of the upper airway and is often used as a surrogate measure of this anatomical compromise. Patients with a low Pcrit (ie, less collapsible airway) are potential candidates for non-continuous positive airway pressure therapies. However, Pcrit determination is a technically complex method not available in clinical practice. We hypothesized that the discrimination between low and high Pcrit can be estimated from simple anthropometric and polysomnographic indices.
    Methods: Men with and without obstructive sleep apnea underwent Pcrit determination and full polysomnography. Receiver operating characteristics analysis was performed to select the best cutoff of each variable to predict a high Pcrit (Pcrit ≥ 2.5 cmH₂O). Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to create a clinical score to predict a high Pcrit.
    Results: We studied 81 men, 48 ± 13 years of age, with an apnea-hypopnea index of 32 [14-60], range 1-96 events/h), and Pcrit of -0.7 ± 3.1 (range, -9.1 to +7.2 cmH₂O). A high and low Pcrit could be accurately identified by polysomnographic and anthropometric indices. A score to discriminate Pcrit showed good performance (area under the curve = 0.96; 95% confidence interval, 0.91-1.00) and included waist circumference, non-rapid eye movement obstructive apnea index/apnea-hypopnea index, mean obstructive apnea duration, and rapid eye movement apnea-hypopnea index.
    Conclusions: A low Pcrit (less collapsible) can be estimated from a simple clinical score. This approach may identify candidates more likely to respond to non-continuous positive airway pressure therapies for obstructive sleep apnea.
