Primary outcomePrimary: Apnea/Hypopnea Index (AHI) — 3.9; 6.4 Events per hour — p=0.022
Summary
This study will determine if modified adaptive servoventilation (ASV) is as effective as the conventional ASV in treating periodic breathing. The study will determine if the modified ASV reacts appropriately to reduce apneas and hypopneas and provides suitable levels of positive airway pressure compared to conventional ASV.
