Access to medical care for patients with breathing disorders during sleep is a major problem
for Canadians. Recently, there has been increasing interest in how health care providers who
are not physicians can help to improve access to medical care for these patients, but it is
unclear whether patients with severe sleep-disordered breathing who receive care from these
non-physician providers have the same response to treatment as patients who receive care from
physicians. Since these severe have a high risk of developing cardiac and respiratory
complications and of being hospitalized, an initiative to improve access such as the use of
non-physician providers could be of great benefit to individual patients and the health care
system.
The objectives of this project are:
1. to determine whether patients with severe breathing disorders during sleep have the same
response to treatment when cared for by non-physician health care providers (respiratory
therapists) as they do when cared for by physicians;
2. to determine the effects of non-physician health care provider treatment to patient
access;
3. to determine health care utilization and related costs associated with non-physician
health care provider treatment.
