Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Objective: Set up an interoperable telemedicine system for the follow-up of patients with sleep apnea syndrome.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The medico-economics protocol will use the MAST (Methodology for Assessment of Telemedicine) criteria. 200 patients will be randomized into 2 arms (telemedicine with GPRS transmission of CPAP data from patients' home and classical follow-up) during the 3 first months of the follow-up. The main end-point is CPAP compliance with the aim of detecting a mean increase of at least 1hr in the use of CPAP.
