What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of hours of CPAP use by night
Time Frame: Baseline
Analyse of the data recorded by the CPAP microchip in order to assess the adherent or non-adherent status to the patient (adherent: CPAP use > 4 hours per night, non-adherent: less than 4 hours)
Baseline

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Lickert's scale to assess criteria of non-adherence
Time Frame: Baseline
Evaluation of 72 criteria by a Lickert's scale in order to assess characteristics associated with non-adherence to CPAP therapy
Baseline
