Global Self-management Telematic Support for Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea.

"During 6 months with CPAP treatment, patients must complete some questionnaires about the presence of refreshing sleep and side effects with the frequency established, using a computing application. Patients can download this application on their own smartphone but, if they prefer, they can be provided with a tablet during the study with this application installed.~A set of variables will be collected using an automatic and wireless transmission from latest generation CPAP to control the CPAP compliance and tolerance. All data will be processed in a platform to generate alarms, which will be controled daily by a researcher, as well as solutions to the problems presented during the monitoring."

According to the SEPAR regulation, patients treated with CPAP should be evaluated by the pulmonologist one month after beginning treatment, every 3 months during the first year, every 6 months during the second year and annually from the third year.
