Brief Summary: Targeted population: Sleep apnea patients at low cardiovascular risk newly treated by CPAP Hypothesis: Six months CPAP compliance might be greater in the telemonitoring arm compared to usual CPAP care. Main goal: To compare 6-months CPAP compliance when Sleep Apnea patients at low cardiovascular risk are randomly allocated to usual CPAP care or a multidisciplinary and coordinated follow-up based on a telemonitoring web platform.
Detailed Description: Study procedures: The telemonitoring system will involve respiratory physicians, home care providers and include regular assessments of oximetry, CPAP compliance, side effects and residual events. Secured data transmission to medical staff computers and secured websites will allow easy telemonitoring. Automatic algorithms have been built-up for early adjustment of CPAP treatment in case of side effects, leaks and persistent residual events. An interim analysis will be performed when 200 patients will be included.
