Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The investigators would like to determine the effect of CPAP compliance in reducing postoperative hypoxia and other complications in the surgical patients with OSA. The results from this study would provide valuable data on the rate of non-compliance to CPAP in the surgical patients with a history of diagnosed OSA and a CPAP prescription and the impact of non-compliance to CPAP on postoperative outcomes, especially oxygen saturation.
In this study, all diagnosed OSA surgical patients with or without a CPAP prescription will be approached for informed consent to enroll in the study. All study participants will be monitored for O2 desaturation by using wrist-watch pulse oximeter at home for one night preoperatively and first 3 nights post-operatively at the hospital.
The subjects enrolled will bring their own CPAP units (certified by the hospital engineering department as per hospital policy) and mask to the hospital. The OSA patients without a CPAP prescription will be followed up perioperatively to determine the severity of their OSA and to ascertain the rationale of no CPAP prescription.
Pre and post-operative CPAP usage data will be collected through interviewing the patient, chart review and monitoring recording in the smart CPAP device.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
CPAP prescription group
Patients with a CPAP prescription (both compliant and noncompliant)
No interventions assigned to this group
Without a CPAP prescription
Patients without a CPAP prescription to satisfy our primary goals/objectives.
No interventions assigned to this group
Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Scheduled for a non-cardiac surgery (general surgery, orthopedics, urology, plastic surgery and spine) that is expected to require a postoperative hospital stay of more than one night.
Exclusion Criteria
2. They are on supplemental oxygen preoperatively (daytime or nocturnal).
3. They are pregnant.
4. Surgery included tonsillectomy, septoplasty, uvuloplasty, pharyngoplasty, tracheostomy, or prolonged (\> 48 hrs) postoperative mechanical ventilation of the lungs is anticipated. These procedures/interventions are likely to cure or at least modify the severity of OSA.
