The hypothesis of this work is that the COVID 19 pandemic and the associated lockdowns are likely to modify the adherence to positive airway pressure (PAP) treatments among patients with sleep apnea. Identifying these patients and identifying adherence "trajectories" over time would help mobilize human and telemedicine resources on the patients most in need.
The primary objective of this study is to compare PAP adherence during lockdowns in 2020 with the corresponding weeks during 2019.
