ResMed's recent study highlights that sleep apnea patients can experience significant health benefits from just 2-3 hours of nightly PAP (positive airway pressure) usage.

The study suggests that health systems should adapt their guidelines, as benefits extend up to 7 hours of use. Currently, Medicare requires a 4-hour minimum for adherence, which may hinder patient care. The study aims to reshape how healthcare professionals prescribe PAP therapy.
