The ability to remotely monitor positive airway pressure therapy adherence and efficacy provides a unique opportunity for the field of sleep medicine to quickly and efficiently improve patient adherence. Smaller randomized studies and larger-scale retrospective evaluations show that telemedicine interventions leveraging these data can increase average usage and efficiency of care. However, more evidence on the impact of these programs on longer-term adherence and improving patient-reported outcomes is needed. Combining data from remote monitoring with clinical information in electronic health records may prove to be invaluable to the future of clinical sleep medicine practice and research.
远程监测正压通气治疗依从性和疗效的能力为睡眠医学领域提供了一个独特的机会,可以快速有效地提高患者的依从性。较小的随机研究和更大规模的回顾性评估表明,利用这些数据的远程医疗干预可以增加护理的平均使用率和效率。然而,需要更多关于这些方案对长期依从性和改善患者报告结果的影响的证据。将远程监测数据与电子健康记录中的临床信息相结合,可能对临床睡眠医学实践和研究的未来具有重要意义。
