, Question 1. (Single Select)
A commercial driver treated for severe obstructive sleep apnea asks the sleep programme to confirm that
they are fit to return to full duties. The download shows good use, and the patient reports feeling much
better.
What should the evaluation rest on?
A: Objective evidence of adequate use and control, since fitness turns on both together
B: The absence of any incident since therapy started, that being the outcome of interest
C: The number of hours of use alone, since adherence determines the outcome and is objectively recorded
D: The patient's own report of improvement, sleepiness being a subjective experience

B: Expiratory relief is offered only on auto-adjusting devices and bilevel only at fixed settings
