Your reference is British. Note the spellings of centre, etc. Check Vera Pyle's book and Dorland's Medical Dictionary and also the American Medical Association reference for making nouns out of proper names. Our own BOS states not to capitalize words derived from eponyms.

There is no dash...
Subject: There is no dash...
There is no dash in the abbreviation. The "C" stands for continuous - continuous positive airway pressure. The MD probably just has a preference for his to look that way. Since it is a verbatim account, I would do as he requests - on his work only. Continue to use the correct CPAP elsewhere. You're right - he's wrong, but he's the doc! Sometimes we're damned if we do and damned if we don't. Sorry for your dilemma. Hope this was helpful. Have a good day :-)
