| Abstract: | Purpose Due to inconsistent definitions used in the literature, the prevalence of rapid eye movement (REM)-related sleep-disordered
breathing (SDB) has been quite variable and its clinical significance remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the prevalence
of and clinical characteristics between various criteria for defining REM-related SDB. We also investigated how frequently
CPAP therapy was recommended in patients with REM-related SDB and if they had lower CPAP adherence compared to non-stage-specific
SDB. |
