title: [Long-term results with nasal CPAP ventilation therapy in obstructive sleep apnea].
abstract: In 410 patients suffering from severe sleep-apnoea syndrome long-term observation was done (0.5-4 years). Treatment with CPAP-breathing normalised haemodynamic disorders. Only 1 patient discontinued the therapy. In 30% an increase of CPAP pressure and in 2% an decrease of the CPAP pressure was necessary.
