Brief Summary: Hypothesis Computer controlled continuous positive airway pressure autoCPAP is equally effective in improving obstructive sleep apnea syndrome symptoms breathing disturbances objective vigilance and it is cost-effective compared to conventional fixed continuous positive airway pressure
Detailed Description: 1 To investigate whether computer controlled continuous positive airway pressure autoCPAP improves subjective sleepiness quality of life objective vigilance and nocturnal respiration to a similar degree as conventional fixed continuous positive airway pressure in the initial phase of treatment and over the subsequent 2 years during home therapy
2 To investigate the cost of autoCPAP compared to fixed CPAP therapy
