賴又嘉 技師
Positive airway pressure (PAP) therapy is an effective and common treatment for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Before the patient start PAP therapy, PAP titration should be executed to determine the optimal setting of PAP. If in-laboratory titration is the first time for the patient to experience the PAP device. Successful titration is crucial to improve the acceptance of CPAP. In this section, we will demonstrate the preparation, titration rules from AASM, introduction of ventilatory modes, titration techniques and common troubleshooting during titration. In addition, we provide the clinical experience to increase the efficacy of PAP titration.
