description Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is one of the most common sleep problems defined by cessation or decreased airflow despite breathing efforts. It is known to be related to multiple adverse health consequences. Positive airway pressure (PAP) is considered an effective treatment that is widely used. Various modes of PAP and other emerging treatment options are now available. A multidisciplinary approach, understanding diverse phenotypes of OSA, and shared decision-making are necessary for successful OSA treatment. Patient-centered care is an essential modality to support patient care that can be utilized in patients with OSA to help improve outcomes, treatment adherence, and patient satisfaction.
