Official title
Impact of Interactive Web-Based Education and Interactive Voice Response (Automated Follow-up) Programs on CPAP Adherence for the Treatment of Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary and well-known challenge with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the incomplete adherence of patients to this therapy. Successfully improving CPAP use is likely through emphasizing patient education regarding the risks associated with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), potential benefits of therapy, teaching techniques to acclimate to CPAP, and providing a system of accountability through a follow-up process. With the changing landscape of healthcare reimbursement which emphasizes achieving positive clinical outcomes, discovering more automated and self-directed methods of educating and follow-up is needed. The investigators plan to investigate the impact of adjunct Web education and automated follow-up on CPAP use and other measurements of patient engagement. The specific aims of this pilot study are as follows: 1. Assess impact of Telemedicine mechanisms on CPAP use 3 months after initiating therapy in comparison to usual standard of care. 2. Assess impact of Telemedicine mechanisms on functional outcomes and parameters of healthcare utilization at 3 months after initiation of therapy in comparison to usual standard of care.
