Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA) is a prevalent sleep-related respiratory disorder characterised by recurrent upper airway obstruction during sleep, resulting in intermittent pauses in breathing. This leads to fragmented sleep, excessive daytime sleepiness, and significantly increases the risk of developing serious comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and stroke. OSA affects approximately 5% of the population, with a substantial proportion remaining undiagnosed.

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy is the first-line treatment for OSA, delivering a constant flow of air via a mask to maintain airway patency during sleep.

At Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (GHNHSFT), there are currently around 5, 500 patients utilising CPAP therapy and a further 300 patients using other forms of non-invasive ventilation.
