Five-Minute Awake Snoring Test for Determining CPAP Pressures (Five-Minute CPAP Test): A Pilot Study

Table 5

CPAP prescription based on the Five-Minute CPAP Test Quiet Pressures ±2 cm of water pressure (cwp). Note: at our institution we selected 7–11 cwp as the lowest prescription.

Quiet Pressure	CPAP prescription
≤8 cwp	6–10 cwp
9 cwp	7–11 cwp
10 cwp	8–12 cwp
11 cwp	9–13 cwp
12 cwp	10–14 cwp
≥13 cwp	11–15 cwp
