Despite the importance of treating sleep-disordered breathing, positive airway pressure adherence rates in children are low. Identifying readily available predictors of nonadherence would enable the development of targeted interventions and supports, but literature is limited. Our objective was to identify baseline clinical predictors of 6-month positive airway pressure therapy nonadherence in children with SDB through a retrospective cohort study.
