简要总结
The purpose of this study is to develop, refine and evaluate the feasibility of a novel couples-based intervention to improve adherence for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
详细描述
This study will develop and test a novel couples-based intervention for the treatment of OSA and sleep health among older couples. The focus of this study is patient who are starting CPAP treatment and their partners. Couples will be randomized to a 3-session sleep health intervention delivered via telehealth or to standard educational support for CPAP. The intervention is based on a transdiagnostic model of sleep and circadian disorders (TransS-C) and rooted in the idea that older adults with OSA are often also having other sleep problems, and that OSA is best treated in the couples context.
