Journal ArticleDOI
Poor long-term patient compliance with the tennis ball technique for treating positional obstructive sleep apnea.
James J. Bignold,Georgina Deans-Costi,Mitchell R. Goldsworthy,Claire A. Robertson,D McEvoy,D McEvoy,Peter Catcheside,Peter Catcheside,Jeremy Mercer +8 more
TL;DR: Long-term patient compliance with TBT appears to be very poor, with less than 10% of patients reporting continued use approximately 30 months after prescription, with most TBT non-compliers reporting it to be too uncomfortable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of Gender on Associations of Obstructive Sleep Apnea Symptoms with Chronic Conditions and Quality of Life.
Sarah Appleton,Tiffany K. Gill,Anne W. Taylor,D McEvoy,Zumin Shi,Christopher Hill,Amy C. Reynolds,Robert J. Adams +7 more
TL;DR: Men are less likely than women to be diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) compared to women with typical OSA features in women, including obesity, depression, and loud snoring.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comorbid insomnia and sleep apnoea is associated with greater neurocognitive impairment compared with OSA alone
Journal ArticleDOI
Population-based analysis of sociodemographic predictors, health-related quality of life and health service use associated with obstructive sleep apnoea and insomnia in Australia
Elizabeth Hoon,David Alejandro González-Chica,Andrey Vakulin,D McEvoy,Nicholas Zwar,Ronald R. Grunstein,Ching Li Chai-Coetzer,Leon Lack,Roger Adams,Phillipa Hay,Stephen Touyz,Nigel Stocks +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, a large representative community-based study (n=2977 adults) used logistic regression models to examine predictors of self-reported sleep apnoea and current insomnia and linear regression models were used to examine the association of these sleep conditions with both mental and physical components of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and health service use.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in men varies markedly according to definition criteria
Robert J. Adams,Sarah Appleton,Andrew Vakulin,D McEvoy,Nick A. Antic,Peter Catcheside,Anne W. Taylor,Gary A. Wittert +7 more
TL;DR: Inclusion of co-morbidities in the ICSD-3 criteria does not notably increase OSAS prevalence over that determined by OSA symptoms alone, and better identification of who is at long-term risk from OSA-related complications is needed to define significant OSA.
