Non-inferiority of sleep position therapy compared to positive airway pressure therapy with regard to daytime sleepiness in patients with mild to moderate position-dependent obstructive sleep apnoea (POSA): study protocol for a multicentre randomised cross-over trial

Non-inferiority of sleep position therapy compared to positive airway pressure therapy with regard to daytime sleepiness in patients with mild to moderate position-dependent obstructive sleep apnoea (POSA): study protocol for a multicentre randomised cross-over trial

Abstract Background First-line therapy for patients with clinically relevant obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) is positive airway pressure therapy (PAP). At least one half of patients with mild to moderate OSA (apnoea-hypopnoea-index (AHI) 5-30/h) have positional OSA (POSA), where apnoea occurs mostly...
