Özet

Background: Prediction of effective CPAP level to treat obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) before CPAP titration helps the effectiveness of titration. Several algorithms that predict the optimal continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) level have been developed. However, a standard algorithm has not been composed.
