With a low rate of CPAP adherence, healthcare professionals, especially nurses, should encourage patients to use CPAP regularly by providing them with support and education regarding the severity of the disease if untreated and the benefits of CPAP treatment on the disease. Healthcare professionals should be aware of psychological factors impacting patients' perception of sleep apnoea and CPAP treatment. Interventions dealing with these factors should be developed and implemented in practice.
