Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether adaptive servo-ventilation (ASV) or continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is better at treating complex sleep apnea over time.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosis of complex sleep apnea syndrome (CompSAS)
  • Naive to PAP therapy
