In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the causes, treatment and health implications of OSA. Topics include the risk factors and interventions for non-adherence to CPAP; the benefits of CPAP therapy; a discussion on whether primary snoring is a benign symptom of OSA?; mechanisms underlying endothelial dysfunction in OSA; and the efficacy of intraoral devices for OSA.
