The CPAP does not "fix it completely" for everyone. That is FALSE. Granted, the machine should make a noticeable difference, but it does not restore "normal" sleep in all patients. I would be interested to see statistics from a "CPAP satisfaction" survey. Instead of solely looking at AHI, ask patients to rate their sleep. There are at least a couple of commenters in this thread who are telling us the CPAP has not restored their sleep to "normal". CPAP may be the "Gold Standard" in OSA treatment but it is not the "Holy Grail" for everyone suffering from sleep disordered breathing.
