Overview

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the addition of a comprehensive lifestyle program including dietary management and exercise to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in overweighted adults with obstructive sleep apnea. Half of the participants will receive CPAP therapy while the other half will have diet consultations, nordic walking sessions and CPAP.

Detailed Description

While the specific impact of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on quality of life is well established, the impact of CPAP therapy on quality of life remains unclear. Yet, improving the quality of life of OSA patient is one of the main targets of treatment. Both exercise and healthy diet are recommended in the management of overweight and obesity. This should improve quality of life as well as comorbidities associated with sleep apnea.
