PAP in pregnancy: inconsistent findings

A trial of positive airway pressure for the treatment of sleep apnea in pregnancy
American journal of obstetrics & gynecology MFM

Randomised trial · 89 participants with OSA and obesity · Assessment at 28–31 weeks

Findings: There was no significant difference in the primary composite cardiometabolic risk outcome between treatment and control groups.

Points to consider: Treatment adherence was low; the control design changed between phases. Read this study alongside the Tantrakul trial, rather than selecting only positive findings.

Device & relevance: Brand/model match has not been verified.
