To conclude, the results of this study suggest that a
multi-modality educational approach combining individual
and group education using written documentation
and a standardized slide presentation results in an
improved CPAP acceptance and adherence. This opens
perspectives for further research. Perhaps – as shown
by Richards et al. (19) – a similar (individual plus
group) educational session before CPAP start, whether
or not in the presence of their spouse, could further
improve the acceptance and adherence.
