The dependent variables are adherence to treatment (% patients who continue using CPAP one year after initiation of treatment) and objective compliance with treatment (defined as use of ≥4h / night).

This number foresees a possible abandonment rate of 5%. For the statistical analysis of the data related to compliance with the therapy and compliance with the follow-up process, descriptive analysis of the data with means, median and 95% CI, or percentages with 95% CI. For the statistical analysis of the factors influencing compliance: multivariate logistic regression.
