Three hundred patients of obstructive sleep apnea were selected for this study. Subjective (questionnaire-based) and objective (usage-profile report based) assessments of usage of nasal CPAP in this population were carried out. Several factors responsible for non acceptance and poor compliance were identified, which included causes related to social, economic, cultural and geographical parameters peculiar to our country. In conclusion, some remedial measures are suggested.
