The most common treatment is continuous positive airway pressure, with nasal mask usage being important, but not always optimal. While most research on treatment adherence focuses on the patient, the bed partner's involvement may be detrimental. Our study aim is to obtain a European\u2010wide picture of the bed partner's attitude and support towards continuous positive airway pressure therapy, including effects on relationship satisfaction and intimacy. The English translation of a German bed partner questionnaire, assessing relationship satisfaction and three major components (general attitude, perceived mask looks, intimacy effects) was distributed within the European Sleep Apnea Database Network and translated in participating countries' local language. Data were collected for 2\u2009years. In total, 10 European countries (13 sleep centres) participated with 1546 questionnaires. Overall, 91% of bed partners had a positive attitude towards continuous positive airway pressure therapy, 86% perceived mask looks not negative, 64% stated no negative intimacy effects. More specifically, 71% mentioned improved sleep quality, 68% supported nightly device usage. For 41% of bed partners, relationship satisfaction increased (no change for 47%). These results were significantly more pronounced in Eastern\/Southern Europe compared with Middle Europe, especially regarding intimacy effects. However, increased continuous positive airway pressure therapy length affected attitude negatively. These results provide necessary information to improve treatment strategies by including educational couple\u2010focused approaches. Among others, we revealed that negative intimacy effects are not considered a barrier to continuous positive airway pressure adherence. These results may inspire more research identifying regional gaps with need for treatment adjustments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/jsr.14125","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,12]],"date-time":"2023-12-12T21:09:35Z","timestamp":1702415375000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Bed partner perception of <scp>CPAP<\/scp> therapy on relationship satisfaction and intimacy\u2014A European perspective from the <scp>ESADA<\/scp> network"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7484-7747","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Naima","family":"Laharnar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Interdisciplinary Center of Sleep Medicine Charit\u00e9 \u2013 Universit\u00e4tsmedizin Berlin  Berlin Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2179-4650","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sebastien","family":"Bailly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Grenoble Alpes University, Inserm, U1300, CHU Grenoble Alpes  Grenoble France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ozen K.","family":"Basoglu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chest Diseases, Faculty of Medicine Ege University  Izmir Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jitka","family":"Buskova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Institute of Mental Health  Klecany Czech Republic"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marta","family":"Drummond","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sleep and Non\u2010Invasive Ventilation Unit, Hospital S\u00e3o Jo\u00e3o, Porto Faculty of Medicine Porto University  Porto Portugal"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8601-423X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francesco","family":"Fanfulla","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Respiratory Function and Sleep Unit Clinical Scientific Institutes Maugeri IRCCS  Pavia Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8897-8342","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stefan","family":"Mihaicuta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Research and Innovation in Precision Medicine of Respiratory Diseases, Department of Pulmonology \u201cVictor Babes\u201d University of Medicine and Pharmacy Timisoara  Timi\u0219oara Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Athanasia","family":"Pataka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Respiratory Failure Unit Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, G.
