OSA - CPAP Compliance Survey in Ireland by ISAT - 2011/2012
For many years the Irish Sleep Apnoea Trust (ISAT) has tried
(unsuccessfully) to put figures on the numbers undergoing CPAP treatment
therapy and how compliant patients' are. Without accurate figures
it is almost impossible to plan for the future, or indeed advocate for
more support from Government and or the Health Service Executive (HSE).
Ms. Michele Dunne, an experienced Respiratory Scientist, has agreed to
undertake an Independent National Survey on behalf of ISAT on CPAP
treatment therapy compliance.
A standard questionnaire, agreed and prepared by ISAT was sent directly
by the CPAP supplier companies to their patients, who have been supplied
with a CPAP device over the past number of years. Anonymity was
guaranteed.
The completed questionnaires, which do not divulge identity are
presently being collated by Ms. Michele Dunne. The results will be
available in due course and will be published here. Only final
national totals will be published.
Other ISAT Surveys
ISAT proposes to undertake additional online
surveys.
If you are interested in partaking in these proposed surveys, please
furnish your contact co-ordinates via our
